Reports are they are splitting for good. I thought this maybe the case.

I've only seen this article: http://www.digitalspy.com/music/news...ust-temporary/, also quoting a "source close to the band" saying the opposite we'll see in due time...

Already denied by their rep.

According to reports, they have left Syco, which I expected. They said goodbye to Simon after their last performance on the X Factor and in the message to the fans on the official website, they confirmed there will be another chapter.

I guess we will find out more in March.

Seeing as Niall has some free time now, can one of you directioners or whatever your called arrange for him to be sent to me. I mean I'm in sunny Tenerife and I'm sure he needs a holiday.

I'd be happy to help him ..err...relax.

I'm sure he can find better things to do with his time.

On a different note, the boys have been nominated for 2 Brits.
Best British group and video of the year (they have that in the bag).

Drag me down.
LM fan base is not even a quarter of 1Ds. The boys are topping the leaderboard at the moment.
International fans are allowed to vote.

One Directions' VEVO channel is the most subscribed VEVO channel on youtube (ahead of Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber and Eminem). It's the 4th most subscribed channel overall (if you don't count "channels" like youtubes own news and sports channel). And they haven't posted any new videos in a while, but people still keep "discovering" them

Agree, what a nice video
Fans were trying to break their own record for "fastest to get to 1 million likes". Old record apparently was 21 hours. This morning, it had over 900k likes, tonight almost 1.1 million. So I don't know whether the record was broken, as I wasn't online during the 21 hour mark Probably not, but it must have been close. And already close to 10 million views

first video interview with Zayn (with Zane Lowe): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxe3uANCGko (audio of the full video) and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y18teX-Gxp0 (video a short extract).
He seems a lot less bitter about his time in One Direction as has previously been reported. Glad to hear

Additionally, Steal My Girl was certified platinum in the UK last week (600k sales/streaming equivalents).

And just read that History is One Direction's 12th single selling more than 250.000 copies! (from Musicweeks sales report: The 12th One Direction single to sell upwards of a quarter of a million copies, History remains at its No.6 peak for the third week in a row, on sales of 34,502 copies. Their cumulative singles/tracks sales (including streams) since their September 2011 debut rises to 9,171,255, with top tallies of 1,046,132 for What Makes You Beautiful, 663,319 for Story Of My Life and 601,878 for Steal My Girl.)

Really impressive numbers!! They've also sold more than 4 million albums in the UK alone

I can't believe he's only 22. He seems more grown up then the other guys.
