HISTORY QUESTION #11973

Which year was the boyband "One Direction" formed?

2010

Explanation

In 2010, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson auditioned as solo candidates for the seventh series of British television reality singing competition The X Factor. They all failed to progress as individuals, but they were put together to form a five-piece boy band and qualified for the "Groups" category. Styles' father first suggested "Status Single" but they all did not agree. Styles then came up with the name "One Direction".
