Crap, does that mean I'm in a boy band?

Have you seen the behind-the-scenes video of that parody? Long story short, some chick runs up to them, believing they're the real One Direction, and asks to get a picture with them. As they take the pictures, Monroe (the guy who played Zayn/the one with the pink thong) raises up his shirt so the thong's showing, and the girl doesn't notice. Oh, what I would give to see her reaction when she reviewed those pictures at home.

But you could be the Justin one! Idk, he gets it in with Mila Kunis, I'd say that's a fair trade for not knowing what boners are for a few years

But then again, did anyone hate N Sync the way they hate One Direction? I'm pretty sure 6-year old me didn't. And also, yes, Mila Kunis is definitely worth it.

But the 17-20 year olds did. That's what happens. When you're young, you love them. Hence why 12 year old girls love the Biebs, when 90% of the internet hates his guts.

Huh. I never realized before but it is really dependent on age. I loved N Sync too btw

The people of BarelyPolitical (the YouTube channel that makes these parodies) are usually pretty on-topic, and more often than not, fairly clever. I really enjoy them.

There's a difference between a "good song" and a "good band"

Just because someone says they don't like something, this song for instance, doesn't mean they're lying and actually like it. I don't have a problem with One Direction, and if you want to listen them go for it, but I don't really want to hear it. Or read about it.

I'm a huge fan of One Direction, but What Makes You Beautiful is actually one of their worst songs. They have so many better ones, I don't understand why it was that one that became a hit.

I agree they have better songs, but its more catchy then their other songs.

I think it's a cute song, but the overhype surrounding them kind of makes it really difficult for me to want to explore their music further.

It's not a good song, just catchy. I get really tired of insecure teenage girls saying "It makes me feel beautiful for once". They're just preying on your insecurities, not trying to make you feel better.

I belt that song like a motherfucker. Not because it's a good song but because it's too catchy for its own good.

I don't know about that, but I think they secretly wish to fondle at least one of the guys.

First: It's awful. Second: Even though it's a crap song, somehow, my local radio station added some kind of beat that didn't go with it at all and it got even worse >.<

I am a big fan of them, and I'll agree that WMYB isn't their best song. But you can't say that they don't try hard or don't want it because they arent just five best friends with too much money and auto tune. They got where they are by auditioning for the X factor, passing and going to boot camp. They didnt audition together, but as solo artists. They were 16 when they auditioned. Of course their voices aren't going to be as mature as some other singers. But at least they are trying and going for their dreams. And their live songs are actually a lot better then some live artists. Yeah, they use auto tune, but what popstar doesn't these days? They have been writing some of the songs on their next album by themselves. So you can't say that they posses no talent. Yes, they are overhyped by the radio and crazy teenage girls and their crazy Directioner fans, but they really are pretty talented.

Sometimes management make artists be a certain way to gain popularity, you can just blame them for stuff like autotune and songs they didnt write. A heap of other artists do it so you cant just pin it on only them. And if you listen to some of their acoustics you'll see that actually have talented voices. They've worked hard to get where they are. You try going on national tv and compete against other people who are there trying to beat you. Do that and then complain about it.
