I’ve known One Direction since they’ve been put on the X-Factor. My cousin who lives in England was telling me about it, then I went to check it out. Ever since then, I’ve loved them! I’ve seen all of their performances. Even when they were independent. I’m a huge fan of One Direction. They are like my life. There isn’t a day that goes by when I don’t make a reference to Harry Styles. They’re my guy idols. I know a lot of people say they’re a huge fan and other stuff, but I’m not kidding. Winning this would be so AWESOME!!! They have inspired me in so many ways. They are hilarious and wonderful. I’m a Directioner. Seriously! But winning this is all I can ever ask for (Besides getting to actually see them in person)! I’m in love with them and I would love this gift. I was super happy when they came together to be One Direction. I love One Direction and I would be so glad if I won one it. Sorry that I wrote a lot. Haha I just love the boys and I’m proud of them and I’m so happy to be a Directioner. <3
the first time i heard about ONE DIRECTION! was in julyof 2010 when my friend rebecca went to visit her family in the U.K and she came back and told me you have to listen to this band their amazing, so i looked them up on youtube and fell in love with them and when they came out in canada i was sooo happy i couldnt believe that they actually made it to canada and were so big! there my absolute favorite music artist….. ive been infected with the one direction infection.. <3333
OMGOMGOMG the first time ive ever heard about one direction was when i was watching a music channel and i heard them for the first time and i saw how cute they were and their voices just melted my heart thier my idoles and the world would be soooo different without them. i play their CD so much that even my dad has the infection. oh my gosh i love them sooo much. i cant wait till they release their next song!!!!! hgvjfhgkjdbiusdhg<fan girl moment (L)
My cousin introduced me to them and im like its just its just another regular boy band. BUT BOY WAS I WRONG! This is is not just a boy band they are the most successful boy band in the world!! And know i will tell everyone about them but looks like they already know! ♥ YA
The first time I’ve heard of One Direction is from my good friend Phoebe. Than, I listened to songs like What Makes You Beautiful, One Thing Acoustic. And I feel in love with them. I ended up looking at their Xfactor blogs. I watched every single Music videos. Liam likes spoons, etc. I also bought the album. Oh my gosh, I love them. Wish the winner luck!
I just wanted to add something. After I watched the Xfactor blogs, and the tryouts for the band, I started watching the documentarys, the interviews online, the video diarys. I started subscribing to them on Facebook. I wanted anything to have contact with them. I listened to their songs everyday and sang them at school. Someday I want to meet them. I was so happy when they won the Brit Awards. But whoever wins, I will still be happy for them because we are all one Directioners, so whoever wins, all they have to do is take care of the book, and that will be all I ask for them. I love it when Liam does the “Flick”. When I watched the Video Diarys, I laughed my head off. Carrots. Lolz. I love One Direction, and I hope they have a new album!
One direction has changed my life!!!! I stalk them on tumblr and twitter and interviews on YouTube!!! I even have a tab for their facts. I even tried to win a radio contest that went for three weeks and got no signal and I called every single time!!! I would like to thank the reason for my obsession, the kids choice awards and Icarly that followed cuz that’s when it all started!!!
omg r u kidding i saw them in this mag idk if it wuz popstar but omg i was in love first sight!!!!
I have known about them since the X Factor. I am in love with the UK. So i enjoy watching theur shows. Then I came across the X Factor and watched it. I fell in love with the boys as soon as I saw them. Ever since I’ve been buying magazines and being a dedicating fan. I’ve been through much hate and having to deal with never being able to meet them even thoughI’ve known about them for about 2 years. I know a lot about these boys. They are my life.
Directioner 5ever.
I first heard of One Direction was in January 2011. I was on twitter when a twitter friend told she was in love with this band and I had to listen to them so she linked me to one of their xfactor performances! I feel in love instantly! They are so talented and since then I have loved them!
I first heard of One Direction in December 2011. My friend from Canada made me watch their video dairies from the x-factor, and i fell in love. ever since, i’ve been obsessed. i love them so much & hope to meet them one day!
i first heard their song on the radio and it was an instant love i went on youtube and searched them up and listened to all their songs my fave one at the moment is ‘tonight’ and myfaves of the group would have to be harry styels because of his fun personality and hair that you just wanna play with and zain malik because of his edge and awsome vocals
I have to be honest, I actually knew One Direction from a music TV channel (MYX) I’m from the Philippines and a guy directioner. I first knew them from What Makes You Beautiful and ever since I loved them. I’m probably not a big fan, because I don’t have enough money to buy stuff, I only have the Standard CD, so I’m really hoping to win this book, I’m praying for this until now, crossing my fingers, hoping…………I’m really hoping God would help me win, Please? No matter what happens ,I will and always be a “Male Directioner”

I first found out about One Direction when WMYB first started playing on Serius Satellite radio in the US. Automatically it was love at first sight… I mean sound. I found their music on YouTube then found out that we’re on the X-Factor and had to watch all their video diaries and performances. WHOOP. There’s not one day when I make a reference to One Direction Larry Stylison Kevin or Carrots. They’re a great band I hope they stay together for a reeeeally long time.
P.S Love Popstar. Going to get monthly subscription instead of picking it up from the market! Xox!

I fearst heard of ONE DIRECTION on the X FACTOR
WHEN I first saw Harry I fell in love with him…..<3 I voted for them week after week.
wow theres two kimberlys
I first heard about the One Direction last year. I was on YouTube and I searched for Cee Lo Green’s song “Forget You” and their XFactor performance was one of the related videos so I watched it. The final 12 were performing and they did such an amazing job! I searched for their individual performances and One Direction’s was, by far, my favorite! I thought they had the XFactor in the bag because they were very talented(and cute) but when I looked them up, I found out they placed third! I thought those XFactor videos would be my only connection to them!:( But two or three months after my discovery I heard WMYB on SiriusXM radio and I almost cried with excitement when I saw that One Direction sang it! People thought they were gonna be a one-hit wonder but I knew they wouldn’t, I had too much faith in them. One year later, they’re still going strong with over 3 million directioners. Cant wait to see what they’ll have in store for us next year
I first heard about One Direction last September. I liked the American One Direction’s song 2012 so I was listening to it and I decided to read the YouTube comments. All of them were about the UK One Direction being better so I decided to look up one of their songs to see how good they really were. I heard One Thing and after hearing it, my music standards were raised! I’m not saying the US band sucks, but I do perfer the British-Irish boy band. I can’t get enough of them now. Much love,
Becca Flourenece
I first found out about One Direction in October when I saw them perform on the Teen Choice Awards.
my cousin told me about one direction, and the i searched them on youtube and then i clicked on what makes you beautiful video and since then i fell in love with them. i love them so much and i want this book so bad ! i will definitely read it and enjoy it <3 one directioner for life.
hey, there popstar!
I’d LOVE to win the Dare to Dream book by One Direction.
I’ve literally tried to get this and their tour DVD anywhere, but it’s sold out EVERYWHERE.
So it would be SUPER(man?) special to get the book from y’all.
I’ve heard about 1D from my cousin, who lives in Manchester, (England).
She told me to look them up on the X-Factor website (since I live in the US and all) and I fell in love with them.
They are really good looking and funny; besides that,
they LITERALLY inspired me to start singing along with my piano playing.
I’ve never regretted it since, and I think it would be cool to see the inspirational journey that they’ve gone through considering that I relate to it.
Plus, i mean they are AMAZING.
It would mean so much to me: considering that I stayed ‘up all night’ (; trying to get concert tickets to both they’re 2012 and 2013 tours. I couldn’t afford to get them, so it would be really cool to get this book; it would mean so much to me.
Thanks so much Popstar: even if i don’t win, thanks so much for this awesome opportunity ;D
I will always remember when I first discovered One Direction. I remember when I was in the 8th grade in 2008, I saw Liam Payne’s audition. His voice was captivating and made my heart melt, and he was the cutest boy I ever laid eyes on. I developed a little crush on him. I tried to keep up with his journey through the X-Factor since, but when he didn’t get through to the Live Shows, I was so upset! I eventually forgot about his audition, but continued to watch videos from that season throughout the fall of 2008. I fell in love with the X-Factor in general. I watched the 2009 series my freshman year. Then when I was a sophomore in high school, I discovered live stream, so I was able to watch the X-Factor live right after school! I was so happy haha. Then one day when I was watching the audition stages, I saw Liam again. My heart started to race and fill with excitement as I remembered watching him on YouTube two years ago. When he at first didn’t make it through the boys category, I was so upset. But then he was put in a group along with Niall, Zayn, Harry and Louis, who may I add I started to form crushes on after seeing them for the first time lol. So I continued to watch their journey through the X-Factor, from when they first showed Harry and Liam’s audition, when they released Niall’s audition, to the clips of Louis and Zayn’s auditions, from Torn to them singing with Robbie Williams. I’ve been a dedicated directioner for the past 22 months. When What Makes You Beautiful was released, it could not have been released at a more perfect time. I went through a rough patch that summer before it was released in August of 2011. My best friend had abandoned me, and told me that I would never succeed in my dream of being in the music business, and he verbally bullied me. I felt worthless. I felt like dirt. I felt ugly, and for a while, I believed my friend that I really would go no where in life. But when I heard What Makes You Beautiful, everything changed. This song taught me that there is going to be someone out there, who will support me more than my so called best friend ever will. And the fact that One Direction did not originally make it as individuals, or win the X-Factor, I learned that if you really work hard and have faith, you will go somewhere no matter what anyone says. And because of One Direction and What Makes You Beautiful, for 3 and a half minutes, I felt beautiful for the first time in months.
One Direction is not only extremely talented and good looking, they taught me so many things in life that I cannot thank them enough for.
