2. About the Band One Direction is a band that was created on July 23 2010 on the X- Factor in UK. The band consists of 5 boys. Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik. The boys placed third, but were signed a record deal anyway because they were just to good to let go. They were originally put together because none of the five boys made it through, but they were all to talented to let go, so Simon Cowell put them together to continue in the X-Factor. After being signed, the boys careers took off. They released “What Makes You Beautiful”, which was a smash hit in more than 37 countries across the world. They later released an album called “Up All Night”, in November 2011 which was also a hit. After the UAN tour, they released “Take Me Home” which was once again, a hit. This time, during the tour, they were to film their first movie, called “This is Us”. On the TMH and Where We Are their opening act was 5 Seconds of Summer, which consists of Michael Clifford, Ashton Irwin, Calum Hood, and Luke Hemmings, all from Australia. “This is Us” was officially released on mine and Liams birthday, August 29 th 2013. Later in the year, they released yet another album, called “Midnight Memories”, with a tour called “Where We Are”, which concluded on Sunday, October 5 th. They have another up and coming album, called “Four”, to be released November 17 th this year. http://topicstock.pantip.com/chalermkrung/topicstock/2010/12/C1003173 8/C10031738.html First Picture Ever Taken Of the 1D Boys together 5 Seconds of Summer when they toured with 1D on TMH

3. Liam Payne This is Liam. He just turened 21 on August 29 th. (He’s my birthday buddy) He was born in 1993, and when he was born, he was basically dead. The doctors revived him, but he still had kidney problems because he only had one. In 2012, his kidney fixed itself, so he could get another one, donated by who I think was Danielle Peazer, his girlfriend at the time. But I am not 100% sure that’s true. Either way, he’s alive and healthy now. When he was younger, he always got picked on. He was bullied really badly. But now, he’s very successful as you probably know. When he was 14, he auditioned for the X- Factor. He got kicked out because the judges said he wasn’t old enough. Then, when he was 18, he auditioned again, and blew away the judges. But, he didn’t make it through himself. Then he was put in One Direction. http://www.hitzoneonline.com/2014/04/28/liam-payne-joins-instagram- and-goes-selfie-crazy-his-top-selfies-from-the-weekend/ One of Liam’s best selfies (Old picture)

4. Louis Tomlinson www.bopandtigerbeat.com- Louis was born on Christmas Eve 1991, in Doncaster England. He has 7 siblings, Charlotte, Felicite, Daisy and Pheobe, (They’re twins), Doris and Ernest (Also twins), and Georgia. Louis is the oldest. His dad left when he was only a few weeks old, and his dad had another child, named Georgia. Or so I’ve heard. When he was younger, before he auditioned for X-Factor, he had a short appearance on a TV show, called “If I Had You”, and just played as himself. Louis loves to play soccer, or football, and he’s really talented at it. I wish I was as good as he is. He’s very lucky to be in One Direction, and to play soccer too.

5. Niall Horan Niall was born on September 13 th 1993, (Taijas birthday too) in Mullingar Ireland. He has an older brother named Greg, and he has a nephew named Theo. He also loves to play soccer, and once again, I wish I was as good at it as him. Niall went to an all boys school, and he said that he’s always wanted to be a singer, well he is. Niall hosted the “Niall Horan Charity Football Challenge” to raise money for the Irish Autism act. Speaking of money, his home country loves him so much that they actually put his face on some of their national currency. That’s when you really know your successful. http://www.netjoven.pe/espectaculos/152920/Princeso-Niall-Horan-lucio- coqueta-corona-en-show-de-One-Direction.html

6. Harry Styles Harry was born on February 1 st 1994, and is currently 20. He has a sister named Gemma, and she is almost 24. I had to put two pictures, not because I like him better than the other boys, believe me, that’s not the case, I just thought you all needed to see the braids, but you can’t really see his face, so I added two. Anyway, Harry is the youngest out of One Direction, and has over 22 million followers on twitter. That’s kind of irrelevant but I just think it’s cool. He is the 17 th most powerful person in England, and the queen is 16 th. I don’t even need to say anything else. So you kind of get the idea. http://www.unrealitytv.co.uk/showbiz/harry- styles-braids-dreads-fans-react-new-hairstyle- 5sos-star-michael-clifford-called-liam-payne/ http://www.su garscape.com/ main- topics/lads/10 60258/harry- styles-very- politely-slays- twitter-user- who-claims- he-stole-100- him- %E2%80%98

7. Zayn Malik Zayn turned 21 as of January 12 th 2014. He is currently engaged to Perrie Edwards from Little Mix, but they’ve been engaged for like 2 years so I don’t know whats up with that. He has 3 sisters, Safaa, Doniya, and Waliyha. Zayn and his family are Muslims, and it makes me sad because a lot of people claim he is a terrorist, which is not true. I can’t see why people could hate him because he is like a ray of sunshine and his face, is scientifically proven to be perfect or something like that. Anyway, he auditioned for X-Factor, but he didn’t want to go and his mother, Trisha, literally had to drag him out of bed on the morning of the auditions, and thank god she did because the world needed to see his talent. https://encrypted- tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSqqbqzEKP7tEzeSeyLiazQ_HbH u1g-vfQT83QHiDn1fTO_qCal http://upeer.ir/%D8%B2%DB%8C%D9%86- %D9%85%D8%A7%D9%84%DB%8C%DA%A9-2014- zayn-malik/
