One Direction

Earlier this week One Direction delighted fans all over the world when they released their surprise new single Drag Me Down.

However, it looks like there was one Hollywood star who was certainly not feeling the 1D love.

Former Buffy The Vampire Slayer actress Eliza Dushku took to social media to vent her frustration at the lads. While staying in a hotel during filming for her new series Banshee in Pittsburgh, Eliza managed to end up being there at the same time as the band.

While we know an awful lot of people who would thrilled at the prospect of maybe running into Louis, Harry, Niall or Liam on the way to the lifts, Eliza was less than pleased. It turns out that the lads needed an entire floor of the hotel to themselves, so Eliza had to pack her bags and get moving to make some room.

In an Instagram post that showed her luggage piled up and waiting to be moved into a new room Eliza vented her frustrations at the boys:

“Don’t worry @OneDirection. It was super chill movin outta my hotel room so u can have the ENTIRE FLOOR I’ve been staying on for 2 months.” 

She doesn’t seem to happy then. Eliza made use of her hashtags to really drive home how annoyed she was too. She wrote: “#OnLocationLife #HotelWars #ActorProblems #WhatHaveYouDoneForMeLately #OneDirection Took 2 hrs this Friday afternoon before work.” 

To be fair, we don’t think anyone wants to spend their Friday afternoon waiting in hotel corridors.

Thankfully everything should be back to normal for the actress soon as the band is expected in New Jersey on August 5. We imagine there is sure to be plenty of hotel space for the boys or they might start running out of famous pals.

Twitter has gone into meltdown this morning with the news that One Direction have finally released their first post-Zayn single. The band dropped the single at 6.30am, posting a Spotify and iTunes link to the new song, called Drag Me Down (no surprises who inspired that name).

As well as a post via the band's official Twitter, the lads themselves have also been promoting the new release all morning.

The single reached number one in the US iTunes chart just 42 minutes after Liam first posted the link, breaking Taylor Swift's previous record of 47 minutes for her hit We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together. Quite the feat!

Listen to the song here:

Niall had teased news of a new music last week when he posted an image of a sound engineer sitting in front of a computer with the caption, "Final touches."

 

Final touches ………

As for Zayn, earlier this week he revealed he had signed a solo deal with RCA records, telling fans he was ready to make "real music" and show fans his true self. Talk about a serious diss! 

Let the battle of the artists begin…

It seems that 22-year old former One Direction star Zayn Malik has officially left his boy band life behind him.

Zayn was looking very pleased in a photograph which shows him signing his new deal with RCA records and according to him, he’s going to be much happier doing his own thing.

He wrote to his 15 million followers on Twitter in order to officially confirm the news. In March when he left the famous boy band it was revealed that he had also been dropped from Simon Cowell’s record label Syco which he had been signed to as a 1D member.

Simon himself took to social media to congratulate Zayn on his new deal saying:

“I believe they are the perfect label for @ZaynMalik’s solo career and I am sure whatever they release together will be special.”

is this zayn's moment he's taking off his hannah montana wig and now he's miley cyrus

Speaking with The Sun, a source has said that it was “a big move” for Simon to let Zayn go “because Zayn could have a very successful solo career but his priority absolutely remains the band.” According to the source this is a deal which “suits” Simon as Zayn is still within the Sony music family.

However, it doesn’t seem like we should be expecting any collaborations between Zayn and his former bandmates any time soon. After walking away from the band insisting he wished to be a “normal 22-year old”, fans were confused when he then started working on solo material.

His recent tweets about “real music” have also had some fans questioning his loyalty to his former band mates. The Mail Online reached out to Zayn for a response but he has yet to respond.

It's been five years this week since Simon Cowell first introduced fledgling boyband one Direction to the world, and since then they've become one of the most globally successfully pop groups around.

The One Direction Twitter fandom tend to make a hashtag for pretty much everything, from #1MonthSinceZaynQuit to #HarryAppreciationDay, but the most recent one, #5YearsOfOneDirection, has had a huge response so far.

Fans, music lovers and the lads themselves have all taken to Twitter over the last 24 hours to celebrate five years since 1D's inception… and they've shared some seriously cheesy old photos too.

Expectant dad Louis Tomlinson took to Twitter last night to thank fans for their support:

 

Harry Styles was also full of praise:

 

2fm DJ Rick O'Shea shared these BRILLIANT snaps of the lads' first interview on Irish radio:

 

We're also obsessed with this time-warp style Vine:

 

And remember when Zayn was still loving boyband life? "Yaaaaay!"

 

Plus, Louis' mum Johannah shared this sweet memory from back in the X Factor days:

 

Wonder where they'll all be in another five years?

Louis Tomlinson’s ex-girlfriend Eleanor Calder has been keeping pretty quiet on the social media front ever since the news broke last week that Louis is an expectant father.

The stunning 23-year-old model was travelling around America with friends and she has just returned home and posted a photo of her and her adorable dog, captioning it: “Missed my baby.”

Ms Calder was said to be devastated at the news of Briana Jungwirth’s pregnancy, given that her and Louis only split up two months previously after four years of dating.

According to HollywoodLife.com Eleanor was “sickened” and “heart-broken” when she heard the news. It was also reportedly Louis’ mum who broke the news to her, as they still remain close.

With her 23rd birthday just last week, it was also reported that Louis sent his ex some really sweet gifts. A source claims that he sent her 23 sunflowers, 23 white roses and a stuffed elephant teddy with a happy birthday note in it.

The source has said that “he’s been telling Eleanor that no one can compare to her. Louis feels like he let Eleanor down and for that he’s really sorry.”

One Direction’s fans made Twitter absolutely explode with rumours of Liam getting engaged to his girlfriend, Sophia Smith.

Proving once again that they are the most hard core fans, they have even managed to get #SophiamIsEngaged trending worldwide.

But could there be any truth to the rumours?

Sadly, it appears that the commotion was stemmed only from excited fans.

Liam took to Twitter to show that he at least found all the tweets comical.  He even retweeted his favourite fan tweet from the frenzy.

Since the 21-year-old shot down the rumours, other 1D fans seem to be having a meltdown over the fact that people started these rumours in the first place.

Liam also proved this week that he is not afraid to speak his mind as he openly slammed Naughty Boy during the band’s performance in Vancouver.

Mr Payne read out a sign that an audience member was holding up that bashed the music producer that has caused so much friction between Zayn and the rest of the band.

He's yet to confirm or deny the swirling baby rumours – but Louis Tomlinson is certainly making a BIG effort with former love-interest Briana Jungwirth. 

Briana, 23, is an LA-based stylist and is reportedly 12 weeks' pregnant with the One Direction star's first child.

She is said to be suffering from severe morning sickness at the moment.

The duo went on several dates in May, though they are no longer in a relationship.

And it has now emerged that 23-year-old Louis recently left the band's On The Road Again tour to fly to LA to spend time with Briana and her family – including her mum. 

TMZ, which also carries images of the outing, says Louis and Briana, along with her mum and little brother, spent the afternoon hanging out in West Hollywood.

There they even cosied up to the same chimp that had appeared in One Direction's Steal My Girl video.

The musician later posted a snap to Instagram, saying he had been "reunited with an old friend".

Mail Online has reported that the singer's mother, Johannah Deakin, and step-father, Dan, have already met Briana's parents: mum Tammi Clark, 47, and stepfather Brett.

An insider claims the two families happily enjoyed a July 4 weekend together getting to know one another and chatting about the future.

The 1D singer and his mother

 

Lottie Tomlinson, Louis's sister, is also currently in LA.

Johannah is a midwife and a mother of seven. She only gave birth to twins, Ernest and Doris, in February last year but this will be her first grandchild. 

Meanwhile, in contrast to Mr Tomlinson's large clan, Briana has just one sibling: a younger half brother, nine-year-old Austin, whom Louis has been hanging out with.

Tammi also had Briana in her early 20s and they are particularly close

 

Mail Online furthermore says that Johannah and Dan travelled to California again to attend Ms Jungwirth's most recent appointment and scan.

"They all saw the ultrasound together and heard the baby's heart beat for the first time," the website states.

And while it may not have worked out with Briana, a source told PEOPLE this week that Mr Tomlinson has vowed to be at Ms Jungwirth’s side throughout her pregnancy and really wants to be a “hands-on dad” when the baby arrives early next year.

This year’s San Diego Comic Con brought an awful lot excitement, as it does every year. With all the fuss about Jared Leto and his fellow villains there’s a chance you may have missed something more important.

Two of our favourite boybands are getting together and making dreams come true! NSync and the Backstreet Boys are actually working together again. Even better news: our favourite One Direction member and Mullingar native Niall Horan might join in the fun.

Nick Carter announced that his fellow Backstreet Boy buddy A.J McLean and Joey Fatone of ‘N Sync would be starring in his new film Dead 7.

We thought the boys hated each other? Was there not a boy band rivalry going on for all these years? Apparently not according to Nick: "We've been friends for a long time."

He continued "I wanted my friends in the film with me. What is more fun than riding horses and being zombies shooting things?”

We can think of a few things. 

We might be forced to change our tune if Nick’s dream comes true. Not only does the boy band alum want to make movies with his singing and dancing pals, he has his eyes on a certain One Direction member to join the cast.

Only days ago he tweeted Niall to ask him about joining the project. Nick thinks Niall would be the best person to play his brother. The pair manage to get themselves in a love triangle, naturally.

Hilary Duff, yes his brother’s ex-girlfriend, is who Nick has pictured to play the lady at the centre of the brother’s spat. Niall has yet to respond to the request, but we think this sounds like a great idea. Bizarre, but also really great.

Can you imagine the soundtrack?

He only broke up with his long-term girlfriend Eleanor Calder in March, but One Direction's Louis Tomlinson is now expecting a baby with a more recent love-interest.

Congratulations!

Although they are no longer in a relationship, the pop-star and Los Angeles-based stylist, Briana Jungwirth, 23, will welcome the little one early next year.

Louis and Briana spotted together recently 

 

“Louis is happy and very excited about becoming a dad and he thinks Briana will be an amazing mother," a mutual friend of the couple told PEOPLE this evening.

"It was a surprise at first, but he and Briana are very, very close friends and this has brought them even closer."

They added that 23-year-old Mr Tomlinson has vowed to be att Ms Jungwirth’s side throughout her pregnancy and really wants to be a “hands-on dad” when the baby arrives.

Briana has already been on several dates with Louis

 

The PEOPLE source adds: "They are both really happy and although they aren't in a relationship, their friendship is extremely strong and they are both really excited about the baby.

"It's early days and Briana and the baby's health are the most important things right now."

The duo began dating in May and sent the rumour-mill into overdrive when they were spotted on a series of intimate dates.

One rendezvous saw them attend Snoop Dogg's new album launch in West Hollywood, and afterwards they were observed holding hands in the back of their ride home.

He and Eleanor split in March following a four-year relationship

 

He and Eleanor, whom he dated for four years, only split in March, but Briana isn't the first woman Louis's been linked to since he became single.

He was seen kissing a pretty brunette in Thailand in the immediate aftermath of his breakup, and has also been linked to Fifth Harmony's Camila Cabello.

And two weeks ago, the South Yorkshire-native was pictured cosying up to model Tamara Bell at Glastonbury.

His child will be the first One Direction band-member baby.

And we already can't wait to see the little Louis Jnr!

It was only yesterday that Zayn Malik shocked the world by releasing a bunch of tweets slamming his former music producer and friend, Naughty Boy.

Since then, it has been reported that the 22-year-old has reached out to his former One Direction bandmates to try and reconcile their differences.

According to HollywoodLife.com, Zayn has reached out to the boys after realising that they are the ones who really have his best interests at heart.

An insider revealed that “Zayn has spoken to Louis Tomlinson, 23, and the 1D boys in the past few weeks after realising more and more that Naughty Boy was only out for himself. “

While Zayn has no current desire to return to the band professionally, he is eager to mend his relationship with the remaining four members.

The singer, who is engaged to Perrie Edward’s, has reportedly even apologised to Louis for everything that happened and for their Twitter feud. The source explained that “Zayn wanted to reach out and make sure they all knew he was still their brother.”

It has also been reported that he has ditched Naughty Boy in favour of music producer Sarah Stennett. So it certainly looks like Zayn is totally done with the 30-year-old musician, both professionally and personally.

One Direction kicked off the North American leg of their world tour last night in San Diego.

This was their first show in the U.S since Zayn Malik left the band.  Everything was going just fine, the Directioners were in top form and the guys had an amazing concert. Except for one small little slip up.

Fan favourite Harry Styles took a bit of a tumble onstage. Naturally, his bandmates couldn’t contain their laughter. They almost had to stop singing and gather themselves. We don’t blame them, watching people fall is comedy gold.

Watching people fall in a dramatic and cartoonish fashion in front of a massive crowd of screaming fans is even better. Come on, look at him. It’s impossible not to laugh.

The good people of twitter reacted much like we had hoped. Within hours #ohnoharry was trending worldwide and there have been countless memes and gifs made of the unfortunate moment.

Harry was able to laugh off the little snafu but his fans, dedicated and passionate though they are, were also very quick to make the most of his embarrassing moment.

They did a really good job.

OK, so it's safe to say that Niall Horan is a guy who's has some pretty impressive contacts.

If he's not hanging out with Katy Perry, he's being linked to Ariana Grande.

Then there are his social media snaps with the likes of Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood (standard), Chris Brown (yup), Emma Roberts (natch), Kendall Jenner (basic), Ed Sheeran (but of course) and Demi Lovato (no surprise there).

Still, it seems there is no end to Mr Horan's impressive list of celebrity mates. 

Indeed, early this morning he took to Instagram to share a snap of him and… former Liverpool star Steven Gerrard. 

And it's not like the duo merely bumped into each other. Nope; the One Directioner is in Los Angeles and made sure to swing by Steven's sweet new €25m gaff (yeah, we'd make sure to visit too if we could).

 

Great to see @stevengerrard , Alex and the girls today! What a great guy he is ..

Making his debut on July 18, Mr Gerrard, 35, only recently made the move Stateside having singed a lucrative contract with LA Galaxy.

He is joined in LA by his wife, Alex, and their three daughters: Lilly-Ella, 11, Lexie, nine, and Lourdes, four.

The couple's new 90210 abode – which is being paid for by his club – reportedly has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms as well as breathtaking views of the city.

Meanwhile, One Direction play a San Diego stadium this evening as part of their On The Road Again tour. They then move on to San Francisco and Seattle, before going to Canada.

Mullingar-man Niall isn't the only band-member with unexpected buddies, though. Indeed, Harry Styles and none-other than Stephen Belafonte (aka Mel B's husband) were also hanging out in LA last night. 

Mr Belafonte even posted a video of the pair, saying that they were "back in action baby," – although Harry points out in the same clip that they are also "in a toilet".
