One Direction

One Direction were a boy band formed on The X Factor, becoming the show's most successful act. They came 3rd though. They split up because they were all too good for each other, each of them forging successful solo careers. The mad fangirls all around the world, reminiscent of the Beatlemania ages, split the nation in three. Either you hated 1D, you loved 1D or you were too old to care.
