Know Your British Boybands: One Direction

Oh, I’m so behind the rest of the world, I know, I know. I’m just discovering the British X Factor cuties now. And while the Tumblrverse seems to be going mad for Zayn, I’m rather partial to Harry Styles and his audacious mid-aughts boy bangs. There’s a marvelous story in today’s Daily Mail about him giving socialite/ slag Peaches Geldoff a fake phone number when she tried coming on to him at a recent event (good thing, too, as she probably would have eaten him for breakfast) and how he sometimes tells girls he’s gay so they’ll leave him alone. Which is SO CUTE! SQUEEEAL! OR MILDLY HOMOPHOBIC, I CAN’T TELL! YAY! From what I’ve heard so far, their music is just so-so but they make up for it by co-ordinating their outfits together nicely WHICH IS PARAMOUNT, YOU KNOW, and again, Harry has these bangs, see, that will make you LAUGH OUT LOUD when you see them in the video for “What Makes You Beautiful.” Watch it and then YOU tell ME he’s not a star.

    Actually Harry is probably the most popular one (over here on the other side of the Atlantic), though personally I am all about Zayn who is just too Goddamn adorable.

    I love how they constantly touch each other especially Louis. He is all over everyone. This is my favorite video diary of them, but they are all worth watching.

    Harry has always looked a bit too much like Denise Richards when she was in her prime for me. It’s always been Zayn, He was the ‘rebellious’ one in the show.
