One Direction Land Guest Roles In US Series ‘iCarly’

One Direction’s plan to crack the American market has been given a huge leg-up – as the pop quintet have landed a guest spot on TV series iCarly.

The show stars Miranda Cosgrove, of School of Rock fame, as a girl who hosts an online show with her friends.

MTV News reports that the boys’ appearance will be in the upcoming fifth season, when Cosgrove’s lead character falls ill after coming home from a trip.

Her mood is lifted by the news that One Direction will perform ‘What Makes You Beautiful’ on her show – only for Harry Styles to catch her bug. But, when the gang realise Harry is playing sick for the attention, they hatch a plan to get him back in the group by telling him another character, Gibby, has become their newest bandmember.

The boys are apparently going to be shooting their appearance on Monday (January 30), ahead of their album Up All Night‘s US release on March 20.

That’s what makes us powerful

 

With only a few thousand fans in the country, you would think that achieving anything to do with
international celebrities is just a dream these people may have. But for us South African Directioners
we aim to achieve the impossible.

Starting with only a few hundred of us we decided we wanted their debut song What Makes
You Beautiful to reach Number One on the Kia Take 40 SA, a countdown for the top 40 songs In
Johannesburg and the Cape.

Our goal as the SA1DArmy is to get What Makes you Beautiful to number one and while we were
busy doing this we were tweeting Mark Pilgrim, the host of the Take 40 SA show to do an interview
with One Direction and well, we achieved this! All we need now is to get What Makes You Beautiful
to number one so please South Africa take five minutes out of your day to help us out.

#SA1DArmy Trended!

It all started when Harry mentioned us on their One Direction Facebook Page. He mentioned the Brit Awards, so I am sure he will be writing to the other countries too…. but for now we still feel special.

SO 1DSouthAfrica came up with the idea to trend HarrySaidHiToTheHomeOfNandos

And we did it!

Well done everybody! Very Proud!


Harry Mentions South Africa


Highveld Stereo / KFM supports #SA1DArmy & One Direction

 

Last week we got WMYB to No 5 on the Take40SA chart. It jumped 5 places!

I hope that you are all still voting my SA1DArmy. Without you, none of this is possible. If we can get them to jump 5 places in a week, we need to do this once more and WMYB will be NUMBER 1!

This week alone, the SA1DArmy has been mentioned 3 times on the radio. This is HUGE for us.

We started off as a small group of fans who thought nobody would ever notice. By working together, we have made the radio station sit up and take notice of the #SA1DArmy!

I am so proud to be associated with my SA Directioners! You guys rock!!!

Mark Pilgrim has really made everyone notice us. He interviewed Niall and Niall says he definitely sees our tweets! The full interview will be broadcast during the Take40SA show this Saturday – imagine how awesome it would be if WMYB went to Number 1 as well!

KFM also interviewed Niall and Liam and that interview will be played on KFM tomorrow. I will try get the interview and put it on here.

Pabi mentioned us on her show today and played One Thing! First time in SA – I mean how amazing is that???

I would like to thank Highveld Stereo and KFM for being so amazing and supporting the SA1DArmy and more importantly, our boys!

To all the South African Directioners (I will update my SA1DArmy list shortly) I think you are awesome!

Thank you for all your hard work – without you guys… we would not be having so much FUN!!


Brit Awards: Watch out for One Direction

Liam’s dream will be realised sooner than he thought!!

One Direction have been nominated for Best British Single for What Makes You Beautiful. (Can’t say I am surprised)

This is up to every single Directioner now. Only WE can get our boys this award!

Go vote for them right now. My mom, dad, brother, sister and everyone have voted! (Well, I voted for them, but this is neither here nor there)

VOTE VOTE VOTE!!

Brit Awards 2012

We are so proud of One Direction for getting a nominee for What Makes you Beautiful!

A few months ago Liam said that it was his Ultimate Dream.

Well Liam, we plan to make it your Ultimate Reality.

Vote HERE – and just because it says that you can only vote once, what is to stop you from creating using all the email addresses you have and stealing borrowing your mom and dad and brother and sister and pets names and using them to vote?

Exactly!

We will stop at nothing to ensure that One Direction win this. They have stiff competition with the likes of Adele, Olly Murs & Jessie J

At the end of the day this will boil down to the fans – who’s fans are more dedicated?

DIRECTIONERS ARE!!!


Interview with 1D – oldy

This video is an oldy, but a goodie.

Harry keeps nodding everytime the lady speaks in german, its very funny!

Niall perks up when they start talking about food, its so cute!

Watch how cute Liam and Louis are at 3:05 and 3:46!

Liam starts to mess with Louis, so Louis tries to hold his hand and reaches behind to grab Liam and almost gets caught out as the interviewer asks him a question!

After getting asked if they are famous, Louis answers and Liam gives him a little squeeze – awwww, too adorable!!

5:24: The way Liam says “Sorry” Super Sexy!!


One Direction Care!

If you are like me & you watch every single video clip – no matter how short or arb it may be – then watch this cute clip where The Boys wish little Charlie Hook a happy birthday.

He is sick with cancer and he is only 6.

1D – it probably isnt possible, but I love you even more!

 


#SA1DArmy Trend #2 Saturday 12 Noon

 

After our success from Saturday we are going to try & take over the Twitter trends on Saturday 14 January from 12 Noon again.

This is what we need to tweet:

Get 1DtoSA. Sign Twititions here http://wp.me/P25lPe-B for #SouthAfricaUpAllNight

There are currently 4 Twititions running & we need all Directioners to sign ALL of them.

For this week: Please vote on Highveld / KFM  Take40SA as often as you can to get #WMYBtoNo1

It would be AMAZING to get WMYB to Number 1 on the Take40SA. When (Not if) we do, we can then start harrassing Mark Pilgrim to do an interview with One Direction.

Then our next step is to start voting for one Thing to be played on air. (Highveld will not play 2 songs by the same artist)

The only way we can get One Direction to be noticed by SA and to get noticed by One Direction is if we all work together as a team and do whatever we can to get One Direction to South Africa.

SA1DArmy: Lets do this poo!


Get WMYB to No 1!!

SA 1D Army – we have another challenge for you!

Lets get WMYB to No 1 on the Kia Take40SA on Highveld / KFM.

If we can get them to rise up the charts, Mark Pilgrim will take notice & then he won’t have a choice but to interview the boys.

When he interviews them, I am sure he will mention how the SA1DArmy worked so hard and the boys will then take notice of us!

Vote everyday! We need you to help us get 1D to the TOP!

Once we get WMYB to the top position, we can then start working on getting One Thing played on air.

Highveld confirmed that they will not play 2 songs by the same artist. SO lets concentrate on WMYB for now.

They are currently in 10th position.

Can they be No 1 in 1 week? That depends on YOU!

Vote HERE

(If you are not Jhb or CT, then pick the city closest to you)


South African Directioners rule the Twitter Trends

 

Yesterday the #SA1DArmy ruled the Twitter Trends!

Sparked by Liam who asked us where we wanted 1D to appear, we got started at 12 noon yesterday and got #SouthAfricaUpAllNight to the No 1 Spot!

Directioners, we have proven that with focus and by all working together, we can do it.

I am so proud to be a part of this #SA1DArmy and I want to thank you all for your hard work!

None of the Boys have noticed us yet, but they will – WATCH THIS SPACE

Higlights:

  • Niall: When I am eating
  • Liam: When I am woken up at 7am

What New Years resolutions did they make for each other:

Liam: Less KFC for you Louis. Fast food is bad for you

Louis: No more chicken caesar salad Liam, more fast food!

Harry: Zayn must wear more stripes (Liam: This is awkward. Louis says how he feels cheated on with a long term wife)

Niall: For Harry. Can’t think….

Louis: We can’t make this kid any better

Niall: Needs to get his nosehairs trimmed

Liam: You need to stop flirting Harry!

Zayn: For Niall…. Liam: To come up with better New years resolutions

Ahhh, I love it when Liam does some of the talking, he really is a cheeky boy!!

What is Harry doing for his 18th?

Harry: A nice meal at home

Louis: Scrap that! We are going out as a band and Harry is having lots of alcoholic drinks!
