Harry Styles is tired of being compared to Susan Boyle
One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles is allegedly unhappy that people are comparing him to Britain’s Got Talent legend, Susan Boyle.
According to the Daily Star, the 18-year old is growing tired of the comparisons between himself and the Scottish singer, after Styles admitted his friends tease him for having similar hair to SuBo.
The newspaper claims that Harry initially found the Boyle jokes funny, with a source stating: “It started off as a laugh but Harry is beginning to get annoyed as more and more people are saying it.
“Now his fans on Twitter have been mocking him over his Susan Boyle-style bouffant hair. Like most lads his age he can take a joke, but everyone’s been taking it too far.”
It is thought the comparisons started after Harry’s 1D doll hit the shelves, with bandmate Louis Tomlinson saying at the time: “We were really happy with the dolls, except Harry looks like Susan Boyle.”
The insider continued: “Harry has been getting stick ever since. The situation took a turn for the worse just before they flew out to Los Angeles for the US dates.
“Someone jokingly started shouting `Susan, Susan’ at him from across the street. The rest of the band thought it was hilarious and they were all bent double with laughter. But Harry is pretty fed up with the whole situation.”
Harry also hit the headlines this week after the teenager revealed to our Australian team that he is still single, despite reports suggesting he was dating US singer, Lily Halpern.

Zayn is not sure if One Direction will last

Zayn is not sure if One Direction will last
Zayn Malik of One Direction joined band mate Liam Payne to talk with the media while on tour and the bad boy of 1D admitted that he doesn’t know if the band has “longevity”. Shocker!
One Direction is currently the most successful band in the world, with millions of fans globally and long list of sold out shows. In a day and age where it takes a lot to sell out an arena, that’s a pretty major feat.
However, Zayn does have a point. As the boys get older, will they still have a massive fan base of screaming teenage girls or will they be a thing of the past?
“There’s no guarantee that we’re going to have longevity, there’s nothing certain about what we’re doing,” Zayn Malik said. “We don’t really understand it but we’re just enjoying it and enjoying the roller coaster.”
It’s great that they guys are enjoying the ride while it lasts and realize that they may not be the biggest thing to hit the charts forever. However, hopefully, they can create some sort of longevity and become iconic as the years go on.

Louis got dumped for not being hot enough

Louis got dumped for not being hot enough
Louis Tomlinson might be part of one of the hottest boy bands in the world, but apparently the One Direction singer wasn’t hot enough for one of his first girlfriends —he got dumped for not being good-looking enough for her.
Louis has captured the hearts of many Directioners with his mischievous smile, sexy suspenders, and his bromance with Harry Styles. However, he wasn’t always so popular with the ladies.
Sugarscape dug up an old interview where Louis revealed talked about dating a girl he really liked when he was 12 or 13, but things obviously didn’t work with her. Here’s what he said about why he got dumped by his grade school girlfriend:
“After a few weeks she decided to finish me, because apparently I wasn’t good looking enough.”
It’s a good thing that Louis Tomlinson didn’t reveal the name of the young lady that broke his heart—some Directioners would probably try to exact their revenge on her through Twitter.
Of course Louis has no problem with the ladies now—he’s currently dating model Eleanor Calder, who recently revealed that she loves Louis for being Louis, not because he’s a member of One Direction. Meanwhile that old girlfriend of his is probably kicking herself for letting Louis go—she obviously couldn’t see what a great guy he was inside because she was too looks-obsessed. But as it turns out, Louis Tomlinson was just a late bloomer—most girls now would consider the singer to be rather good-looking.
They say that success is the best revenge, so Louis has obviously showed his old teen girlfriend what a fool she was for letting go of him by dating a model and becoming rich, wealthy, and good-looking. So let this be a lesson to you, girls—that somewhat dorky-looking guy you’re dating right now could become one of the biggest stars in the world someday, so take the time to get to know him before you dump him for not looking like Robert Pattinson.

Liam's mom knew he'd be famous
Liam Payne's mum Karen Payne has said all the One Direction lads are special to her.
The nursery nurse has said she is close to his son's bandmates Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles and Niall Horan.
Karen told Daily Mirror: "I am incredibly proud of Liam and think of the other boys as our extended family.
"I was in HMV the other day and saw Liam and the boys on all the posters, CD covers and calendars. I had this huge grin on my face thinking, `That's my son'.
"You have to pinch yourself because it doesn't feel real."
With his One Direction earnings Liam has bought his parents a £20,000 BMW.
The singer wanted to thank his mum after she helped him get over his disappointment of failing at the judges' house stage of The X Factor in 2008.
Karen said: "I sobbed. He wanted it so much and I was there in Barbados with him.
"He was devastated after the first X Factor exit but I knew he'd be famous one day."

Zayn Malik got a new tattoo
Malik, who is currently in New Zealand with his band mates Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan, smiles proudly in the photo with a heavily-tattooed man.
The tat will be the latest in Zayn's collection, with the 20-year-old already sporting ink on his chest, his hip and his wrist. This new addition is rumoured to be a silver fern, the national New Zealand symbol.
The boy band - who finished third in 2010's X Factor - caused a stir when they arrived in Auckland this week, which led to the airport having to deny the boys were even in town to prevent a catastrophic meltdown of anyone under the age of 16.
1D had actually flown into the airport at 5:30pm but minders whisked them quickly through a back door to avoid scenes of hysteria from fans, some of whom had camped out since 5am.
Harry Styles and co. have been causing a stir worldwide recently, with successful stints in America and Australia.
As a result, the group, who won a Brit Award this year, have been compared to The Beatles.
But their fame hasn't hit home with everyone, as the queen of pop herself Madonna admitted to ITV1 show Daybreak that she had no idea who One Direction are.
Niall Horan’s dad: I don’t want a cut of his fortune
Proud Bobby Horan revealed he has refused a house and car from his son, adding: “I will graft for the rest of my life.”
The Tesco meat worker, 51, said: “When I heard Niall and One Direction had hit No1 in the States with their first album I was just clocking on for a 13-hour night shift.
“I couldn’t believe it. I was obviously overjoyed. But I wasn’t going to go home and celebrate — I had a job to do.
“I’ve been a butcher most of my life and I’m going to keep doing that until I retire.
“I don’t want one penny of Niall’s money. He’s offered me big things like a car but I’ve always said no. I’m happy living and working as I am.”
Bobby — who brought up Niall, 18, and older brother Greg after splitting from their mum Maura — also blasted the US One Direction group which is suing the British band for alleged copyright breaches.
He said: “I want my boy and the rest of the group to keep touring under their name.
“They’ve worked hard to sell records under that name. They have cracked the States and that’s the way it should stay.”
Between butchery shifts in Co Westmeath, Ireland, Bobby spends hours taking care of fan mail for his son.
He also has to tackle obsessed girls who turn up from all over the world.
Bobby said: “A mother and daughter came from Canada. They wanted to see Niall’s room and where he lived. I was polite and let them take photos.
“Another girl turned up from the US. She’d been driven here by her dad. It’s mad but I’m always polite. They’re the ones backing my boy after all.”
Bobby is regularly posted lacy undies by girls desperate for Niall to sign them.
He said: “I’ve taken bras to him that have come with letters asking for them to be autographed. He does it with a smile. It’s all harmless stuff and keeps people happy.”
Bobby also thanked The Sun for keeping him updated on his son’s pop star lifestyle with bandmates Harry Styles, 18, Zayn Malik, 19, Liam Payne, 18 and Louis Tomlinson, 20.
He said: “Sometimes we don’t talk for days because he’s so busy so it’s great to see what he’s up to in The Sun.
“I laughed when I opened it the other day and saw him and the lads enjoying themselves on a yacht in Australia.
