One Direction

One Direction have just released the music video for their single History which will be the last video release from the group before they officially embark on their dreaded hiatus. 

And we're sorry to say it kind of feels like a farewell. 

As One Directioners across the globe weep soft tears onto their keyboards, the video features an emotional montage of the 1D journey so far. 

And we're happy to report that the video doesn't work to exclude images of Zayn Malik who was a part of the group from the X Factor days. 

The video is sure to send Twitter into meltdown and it probably doesn't help that Niall Horan is sporting his glasses when you consider the online furore which ensued after he donned specs the last time.

We hope this isn't the end for 1D but it sure as hell feels like it. 

Watch the emotional video below:

Louis could not contain his excitement about becoming a daddy last week and it seems that the pop star is all set to totally spoil his baby boy and her mom. 

According to numerous reports, Louis has agreed to shell out over ten thousand euro a month in child support to his baby mama, Briana Jungwirth.

All added up, this will mean that the 1D star will have shelled out over €21.m by the time the child is 18. 

The money will go towards all the baby costs as well as putting the newborn and his mum up in a luxury four-bedroom house in California. 

The baby, who is rumoured to have been named Sydney Rain, was born on Friday and the delighted Louis tweeted to confirm the news. 

"He is healthy and pretty amazing 🙂 I'm very happy!!"

Louis is so happy in fact, that he is planning to be more than generous with the cost of raising a child. 

"Louis is doing everything he can to provide for mother and baby. He’s very wealthy but is still being hugely generous in the amount he is giving," a source told The Sun. 

"He’s taking being a dad very seriously."

However, the source also suggested that the Jungwirth family were not too chuffed with the pay out. 

"There's already a lot of talk about who is going to pay what. The family have slightly exaggerated expectations of what Louis should be contributing every month."

Yikes!

Constantly making PDAs, wearing one another's clothes, and posting about each other on social media – yup, Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik are pretty much like any other annoyingly cute 20-something couple it seems.

And their relationship doesn't stop at always being in touch, either. Even when Gigi's not with her new boyfriend, he's right beside her, on her phone's lock screen.

The model was snapped coming through Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris this week, and with her phone lit up a snap of Zayn's face was clearly visible.

Various sites have confirmed that the photos are not edited and are in fact legit paparazzi snaps. 

As anyone who's ever been in a relationship knows, when their face makes it onto your phone's wallpaper, it's the real deal.

This isn't Gigi's first less-than-subtle shout-out to her new boyfriend, either. Last week the Victoria's Secret model celebrated Zayn's birthday (or "ZDAY" as she termed it) with a snap on her Instagram of a gold Z pendant.

A present for Zayn or her new favourite piece of jewellery? That we're not sure of.

Niall Horan has been making an effort to live life as a 'normal' 22-year-old since his One Direction hiatus began, but one thing which might be hard to get used to again is life at home in Mullingar.

The singer's brother, Greg Horan, took to Twitter over the weekend to publicly blast his brother for not being there for him, saying he wished he himself was "dead."

Greg's tweets, which he deleted soon after posting, certainly didn't paint his younger brother in a great light.

"I wish I was dead simple as life couldn't get any worse," the father-of-one wrote.

"Iv been rejected by Niall since November 2010 and all the support I gave him down through the years there is the truth goodbye [sic]."

However the 28-year-old took to social media again the following day, claiming there was really "nothing wrong" between the siblings.

 

 

"Guys I'm grand stop worrying about me I love niall nothing wrong with us at all," he said.

It's not the first time Greg has taken to social media to hit out about his brother. In October 2014 he made a less-than-subtle dig at the fact that the singer had been neglectling his duties as an uncle to Greg's young son Theo.

"'I wonder when Niall is calling to see Theo I do wonder," he wrote before again deleting the tweet.

As for Niall, there has been no word from him about the rumoured bust-up, though he did take to Twitter earlier this month to let fans know he was just "keeping [his] head down" and enjoying time at home.

During the week there were reports that One Direction's hiatus was going to last a little bit longer than expected… As in, it would last forever.

And of course, the Internet went into a complete frenzie.

But, fear not, because Liam Payne has cleared up any rumours going around, and also released a snippet from his new song. All in a day's work, heh?

While being papped by TMZ photographers, Liam made it clear that they will get back together, uttering "no, no, no, no, no," when asked if the hiatus is actually a break-up.

Then later, went on to share this to fans:

One Direction are officially on a hiatus but that doesn't mean that the boyband aren't still sending the world into a total meltdown. 

The internet seriously lost it earlier this week when Niall Horan appeared to have ditched his trademark blonde tresses in favour of a brunette look and now Liam is adding fuel to the fire by shaving his head. 

The 22-year-old debuted his new appearance in an Instagram snap and as predicted, 1D fans are slowly losing their minds. 

Liam has had quite the hair journey so join us as we reminisce in the good, the bad and the downright not-so-cute. 

2008 

Liam first appeared on the scene when he auditioned for the X Factor in 2008. 

We all fell in love with his Bieber-esque good looks and were suitably mortified when he was booted off at the Judges Houses stage by Simon. 

2010

In a move that would forever embed him as a total God for teenage girls everywhere, Liam came back to the X Factor as a soloist in 2010. 

Slightly older but still sporting his shiny bowl-cut do, he was lumped into a boyband along with four other suitably adorable men… 

2011

Having come third place on the X Factor with One Direction the year before, Liam appeared to put down the hair straightener and let his locks grow out into a messy, surfer style. 

As we awed at his hairs' volume and shine, we realised this man's barnet would forever enthral us. 

2012

Liam opted to ditch his long locks in favour of a grown-up shorter style for 2012. 

Luckily for us all, his head of hair was still fluffy enough to satiate the desires of One Directioners everywhere. 

2013

In a drastic hair overhaul, Liam nearly sent us all to an early grave when he decided to shave all his hair off. 

As he battled against his boyband image, the world lamented the fact that Liam would just not allow that great head of hair to grow. 

2014-2015

However, it did come back. For most of 2014 and 2015, an all-grown-up Liam tantalisingly allowed his hair to grow just a little bit. 

Thankfully, there was always just about enough hair on his head to appease his die-hard hair fans. 

2016

But WHAT'S THIS? 

As we mourn the hiatus, Liam decided to hit fans with another curve ball. He appears to have shaved it all off all over again. 

Excuse us, while we head into mourning.

2015 was by all means a rollercoaster year for the One Direction lads, after they lost a member, dropped some killer album tracks… and announced their hiatus.

The foursome revealed they'd be taking at least two years out from music, which you can safely assume probably means it'll be more like four or five years, unless they're offered a seriously good deal from their record company.

However a new source today suggests the lads have no plans to reunite EVER again – although the evidence supporting that definitely seems a bit shaky.

Niall, Harry, Louis and Liam decided "not to renew their recording contract" after wrapping their tour in October, the insider says.

"The 1D thing just ran its course. They’ll remain friends, but they are exhausted and want solo careers."

Considering this "hiatus" has always been sold as "at least two years," to us it seems like no surprise that a new contract wasn't signed.

But for some 1D fans, it's come as a bit of a shock:

The lads themselves have yet to address today's reports on their own social media, but we're guessing it won't be long.

Attention One Direction fans, Niall Horan is now brunette.

The singer touched down in LA last night as the boys begin solo projects, but one thing that stuck out most to fans was the fact that Niall is no longer a blondie… we think.

The Mullingar native was wearing all black everything, including a cap which covered the top of his hair.

Now, whether he's going for a new look of blonde on top and brown on the bottom, we don't know. But either way, his fans went MENTAL when they saw him:

One Direction and Justin Bieber aren't the best of friends recently, since Justin slagged the boys for having the same album release date. 

But since then, JB has insisted that it's all cool. And if there's one way to let bygones to be bygones, it's by mashing up their songs.

Not that the lads put it together themselves, but fans on both sides will be happy since You're Perfect and Sorry go together SO well.  

It's the perfect collaboration.

Zayn Malik has opened up about his days in One Direction, his current relationship with his former band mates and what he plans to do next. 

But it certainly does not sound like he has a lot of love for his 1D brothers. 

In an interview for his cover of Billboard magazine released online today, the 22-year-old singer revealed that his former best pals made no effort to remain friends with him. 

"The truth of it is… you can think one thing about a situation and the total opposite can happen. I had every intention of remaining friends with everybody, but I guess certain phone numbers have changed and I haven’t received calls from a lot of people."

"I’ve reached out to a few of them and not got a reply. Certain people have pride issues, but it’s stuff you overcome in time.”

Ouch. 

He also revealed that life in 1D involved a lot being told what to do and say. 

"We weren’t allowed to say certain things, or word [lyrics] the way we would want to… My argument was: People are more intelligent than that. They want to hear what’s real, so why don’t we write some stuff that we’re actually going through?"

"I’ll come down here and record maybe seven songs a night… That’s because I’m enjoying what I’m doing. I’m not censoring myself anymore, so I’m not tired. I love it."

On the main reason he felt he had to leave the band, he admitted that the music and the public persona were just not him. 

"I genuinely enjoyed [the band] and did whatever I could to be myself within that, but it’s just not where I sit as a musician."

"The other boys’ taste was generally indie rock. It’s good music, but I don’t f— with it. That was never cool where I was from."

But now for the burning question. Did he buy 1D's new album? 

"I’ll be honest. I thought the first single was quite cool. I heard the second single and… yeah, I didn’t buy the album."

Following the break up with his long-term girlfriend Eleanor Calder and the revelation that he is to become a dad, we think Louis deserves some luck in the romance department. 

Rumours have been circulating over the last month that Louis is dating actress Danielle Campbell and the pair were spotted this week all over each other on a cute date in Chicago. 

They were originally spotted together in November, when one of Danielle's co-stars posted a pic of the pair together. 

So who is Danielle Campbell? We've got all the details: 

1) She is an up and coming actress 

You may recognise Danielle if you are a fan of the Originals, the spin off show to the Vampire Diaries, in which the pretty brunette plays a witch.

You have also seen her in Disney Channel Original films, Prom and Star Struck. 

She has had leading roles in two 2015 drama films, 16 South and Race to Redemption. 

2) She made her acting debut in Prison Break 

Danielle starred in the hit drama series, Prison Break, in 2006 at the tender age of eleven and appeared in five episodes. 

3) She grew up in Illinois 

Danielle grew up in a small town called Hinsdale with her parents and little brother. 

She was spotted age ten in a hair salon and the rest, as they say, is history. 

4) She's an outdoorsy type 

The budding actress, who is turning 21 in January, is naturally active and spends her free time hiking and surfing. 

"I love to be outside and staying active," Danielle told The New Potato. "I love to hike, run and surf. I have also started kickboxing and can't get enough."

5) She's introduced Louis to the family 

Not only has Louis met the family, but according to Hello! magazine, Louis and Danielle's little brother, Johnny, reportedly went out and got matching tattoos. 

We suspect these two might be in it for the long haul.

One Direction have only been gone a hot second and one member is already sharing the fruits of the bands dreaded hiatus. 

Liam Payne has revealed that he co-wrote the song The Night We Met, the new single of Louis Walsh's boyband, Hometown. 

The six Irish lads can be seen in the video breaking into the Olympia theatre in Dublin to perform the song on stage. 

While the single has been doing the rounds on Irish TV and radio, it was not until Liam tweeted the song that we realised it was co-written by boyband royalty.  

One Direction announced that they would be taking a one year hiatus from the group in order to take a well deserved break and pursue solo projects.

Hometown were put together by Louis Walsh in 2014 and just released their debut self-titled album.
