One Direction

Simon Cowell may be wrong about a lot of things -- like, you know, his penchant for V-neck shirts -- but one thing he got a billion percent right was assembling One Direction on 'X Factor U.K.' Since then, the cantankerous Brit has kept in touch with the boys and reveals how he keeps them in line!

The 'Story of My Life' video is a bit of a behind-the-scenes peek at One Direction before they became the biggest boy band on the planet -- and now you can get a behind-the-scenes peek at the making of the video itself!

Newly engaged couple Zayn Malik and Perrie Edwards have officially expanded their family! No, not a baby -- the pair adopted a kitten!

One Direction won two awards at the BBC Radio 1 Teen Awards. They couldn’t be there to celebrate, so they accepted remotely by filming two hilarious videos.

One Direction's video for 'Story of My Life,' a decidedly thoughtful, introspective ballad, finds the boys living (and remembering) life through photos and images while developing them in a dark room.

One Direction adore their Directioners ... but with one caveat: They actually want to talk to them! And that's not always easy. Niall Horan explained why.

One Direction's 'Story of My Life' is a contemplative, acoustic guitar-driven song, sidestepping the addictive pop music that has defined their career so far. While it's not as frothy or crazy catchy, it's just as memorable -- if not more memorable -- than anything they've done.

Two of the world's biggest boy bands are releasing new albums only weeks apart! One Direction's 'Midnight Memories' is dropping Nov. 25, and The Wanted's 'Word of Mouth' hits stores on Nov. 4. We are giddy at the thought of all of this new music, but which album are you most excited to hear?

You are about to "Awwwww!" your brains out, Directioners, when you hear about the insanely romantic way in which One Direction's Zayn Malik popped the question to his beloved Perrie Edwards of Little Mix. It is beyond darling.

One Direction scored another endorsement deal! The adorable boy band are the new faces of Toyota VIOS -- at least in Japan, And, yes, their behind-the-scenes look at their commercial for the vehicle is as cheeky and silly as you'd expect.

A snippet of One Direction's 'Story of My Life,' the lead single from 'Midnight Memories,' has landed online. Directioners, it may be only 16 seconds of music -- which is like a crumb -- but hey, we'll take it and feast on it.

Taylor Swift's romance with One Direction's Harry Styles imploded earlier this year. The relationship lasted, like, three months, cumulatively -- but we're still talking about it. The romance-gone-wrong has come back into the spotlight, as sources suggested that T. Swizzle had a crush on Styles' 1D bandmate Zayn Malik before Haylor, as they were so lovingly referred to, began dating.

Little Mix's Perrie Edwards and One Direction's Zayn Malik got engaged at the end of the summer, even though both of their bands are in high demand and have back-breaking promo schedules. 1D's sched is clearly busier than Little Mix's, given the fact that the boys are at height of their global fame. That fact is said to be causing Perrie to worry that her wedding to Zayn will be further delayed. R

One Direction have won a slew of awards since making their debut on U.K. 'X Factor,' but to Liam Payne, one title means even more than the rest: the Sons & Daughters Award from his hometown of Wolverhampton.

Just in case you couldn't go to bed tonight without knowing the scent of Harry Styles' curly mop, One Direction's hairstylist recently revealed, in perfect detail, the exact smell of the singer's locks. Does his hair really smell like the perfect mixture of autumn leaves and sex? Or is it more of an aroma of teardrops from Taylor Swift's guitar?

A day after teasing fans with the announcement of their new single 'Story of My Life,' the guys in One Direction have revealed the cover and track listing for their third album, 'Midnight Memories.'
