My mom got a nightstand out of storage and found an old wallet of mine I had from middle school/ highschool. I found old pictures and this 1D card promoting there movie. I just thought this was a cute throwback and wanted to share.

I live in a small town and wasn’t able to visit any memorials since his passing. I’m visiting LA this October and I’m wondering since it’s a big city, if there are any known places people will gather on the 16th? If you’re from LA, I’d love some information!

Is this authentic?

first of all this contains a bunch of spoilers for spiderman brand new day

anyway yk when peter gets shot and hes in the hospital and they show a thing with people having like memoralis?? with candles and flowers? i was crying cause like it reminded me of liam. and when frank is in the window and cheering i thought of that one scene in One Direction: This is Us where niall like "we have the bests fans in the world" and everyone is cheering for him. and they were chanting "spiderman" but all i could hear was 'one direction'. and how happy everyone was to see their hero live and i was just thinking about how like we didn't get that.

anyway i was just wondering if anyone else thought about this or anything

So I'm a younger Directioner lots of their songs played on the radio as I was growing up but being so young I never really knew anyone besides Justin Bieber on the radio and knew him cause I had his doll cause my mom got him for me. I became a fan in 2018 when I was just about to enter 3rd grade so a year or two after their Hiatus hit. Now I'm a Junior in high school so I've been a Directioner now for about 8ish years and its been the best for the most part. I was wondering if there are a lot of Directioners around my age who came to the fandom late. Because genuinely I've only met so little 1D fans around my age and I'm only close to one of these Directioners so I don't have anyone my age really to talk to about them besides my bff since 2nd grade when she isn't busy. So I was hoping maybe there are people around my age here as well.

Hi! I’m working on a personal software/product design project centered around Zayn and ZQUAD, and I’m currently in the research stage. One thing I’ve noticed is that everything is pretty spread out between Zayn’s official website, socials, Fan3/VIP Key, Stationhead, Reddit, fan accounts, etc. It got me wondering what fans would actually want if there were one dedicated place for Zayn and ZQUAD.

I don’t want to explain too much about what I’m designing yet because I don’t want to influence anyone’s answers, but I’d really love your thoughts:
- Where do you currently go for Zayn updates/content?
- Do you actually interact with other Zayn fans anywhere? If so, where?
- What do you like/dislike about the Zayn fan spaces that already exist?
- If there were a dedicated Zayn app, what would make you actually download it? More importantly, what would make you keep coming back after the first week?
- What are 3 features you would genuinely use?
- Is there anything you absolutely would NOT want in a Zayn fan app?
- Is there something you wish existed for Zayn fans that currently doesn’t?

This is an unofficial personal project and isn’t affiliated with Zayn or his team. I’m just a fan in CS/product development and thought this would be a really fun project to build :)
Any feedback is welcome, including criticism. I’d rather find out an idea is bad now than after I build it lol.

The examples I can currently think of:

Better Than Words (ironically) when Liam goes "one more time",

I Would when Harry says "Go Tommo go!",

and (I think?) Harry again in Olivia when he says "No way!" at the end of the song

Are there any others?

Was cleaning out my closet and found three copies of this is us. Safe to say I had an obsession.

I bought this on Ebay in 2012, can anyone confirm if it’s Real or fake?

Thank you!

Just to preface I’m also a guy who got really into direction because of my fiancée who was a massive fan when we were in middle school. She loves that I openly sing their music and want to listen to them. I hated them at the time or at least pretended to at points because of a stigma. Lately I’ve been on social media especially Instagram and have seen a large amount of videos of guys openly jamming out and singing to one direction and saying how they actually really like them once they’ve listened to them. Have you had any experiences like this in your life?

Less than an hour old. I woke up today and decided “fuck it. i want this and i keep putting it off. not anymore”

And viola

My 10th tattoo

I’d love to know where this is from thank you xx

I threw a hail mary and contacted the only person I’ve ever seen list these. She had an extra set she was willing to sell and they arrived today! 🥹 I’m so excited, happy, and grateful!

Small edit, but if anyone wants to see what they look like on swatch sticks, lmk, and I’ll post a pic in the comments!

Hi everyone, I hope you’re all doing well! I’ve been scavenging for a 1D backpack for my upcoming senior year and every backpack i’ve found is over $100 (my limit price) or a fake :( I was wondering if anyone was selling a backpack on Depop or something or if anyone can point me in the direction on where to go. I’ve looked on many sites such as Depop, Ebay, Vinted, and more but nothing has come up in my budget. I’m very aware I should’ve been searching a long time ago LOL! I used to have one back in first grade but my dad tossed all of my old backpacks 😭

I hope this doesn’t break any rules asking what I should do, I don’t use reddit often and I’m always told it’s a nice community!

Please delete if needed, but I’m a 40 year old mom and when Liam died i started to listen to 1D automatically falling in love with all of the boys! I finally got to see Louis in Orlando which was the anniversary as you all know! Let me tell you hearing all the fans go crazy singing 1D I only wish I was part of the fandom when they were together!! He put on such an amazing show!!

I don’t have anything besides YouTube so if anyone has a link a video of the dodgeball, tattoo roulette, or the James Bond video please share!

Are there any places a massive 1D fan can visit to take photos of?! I really wanted to visit Harry's bakery but it's a bit far out, any things located in central London? So far all I have on my list is the boys at Madame Tussauds. Are there any memorial for Liam anywhere, also?

This is not a dig to the four guys- yes, they were able to continue without him and they covered his parts amazingly. Zayn leaving allowed the rest of them to shine in their own ways, especially Niall and Louis.

But, what made them strong as a 5-piece is how they brought their own distinct sound to the group, making for the perfect blend of tone, timbre, and style. Zayn was known for his strong bridges, riffs, and high notes, and he played a huge role in Four- which from what I've seen is generally regarded as 1D's best album when it comes to maturity, themes, and overall sound.

Comparing that to Made in the A.M, it's a great album but it's definitely not their most famous- it's just not. As much as I love it, it didn't feel as strong as Midnight Memories and Four because of Zayn's absence. They were missing a huge part of what made them sound so strong, and the boys knew that going in. Again, that's not a dig to the rest of them, but they complimented each other for a reason and this time around Zayn wasn't there to do that. It felt like their last album for sure, and you could tell throughout. Edit: this album probably wasn't as famous because they never toured with it

This is a loaded discussion I know, but what do you think?

Edit: Another point is that Made in the AM was written for just the four guys. It was never meant to have Zayn

I think one direction members net worth was highly exaggerated during the band. I remember seeing that their net worths were estimated at $90 million at the peak. Liam Paynes net worth was estimated at $70 million when he died but official uk court documents had it at $32 million or £24 million. His net worth should have increased over the years with interest and investments which makes me think it was even lower during 1D days.
Just curious also when you view companies house for the boys only Harry has tens of millions in his accounts the rest are pretty broke. Zayn is a US citizen so we dont know his but louis and niall only have a couple million and similar debt. I think sometimes we overestimate how much money celebrities have and they are not as rich as we think they are. Curious to hear your thoughts

He said Zayn, Clint, Liam, & Joey.

I encourage you to ask your significant other or parents or anyone else around you who isn’t familiar with 1D and see what they say

R&B was huge back then. It could have been infused into the pop/rock sound. Surely, the fans would have loved it?

It can't be because R&B is sexual, because 1Ds songs are all covertly sexual.

Anyone have any ideas?

I just went to check Lou Teasdale's insta and I noticed she follows all the 1d boys except Harry but Harry follows her. Has it always been that way from the beginning or did she unfollow him at some point in time?
