Their winning soared them to stardom as they released their first single " What Makes You Beautiful?". The song won the Best British Single award during the Brit Awards on February 21, 2012.

The hottest boy band for the moment, One Direction will be performing at the following venue:

1) Hordern Pavillion, Sydney - April 13, 2012 , 2:30 and 7:20 PM

2) Hisense Arena, Melbourne - April 16, 2012

Ticketek announced that the concert was surprisingly sold out. This weekend, teenagers became hysteric when the first souvenir shop for 1D was opened in Sydney. Young girls queued outside the store a day before the actual opening.

Channel 7 announced that One Direction will be interviewed but not performing on Wednesday, April 11, 2012 on its morning show Sunrise. Yesterday, a group of youngsters already camped out of Channel 7 at Martins Place but they were persuaded by police to go home.
