One Direction Are Surely The Greatest Reality TV Success Story
 

One Direction have blown every other act out the water. Consecutive Number 1 Albums. Impressive Sales(especially considering the standards of this day and age), sold out Stadium tours and you can't go anywhere without seeing them. Pretty crazy to think they were kids on a TV Show not long ago. A great success story. :worship:

Few other Reality Show contestants were New Entries this week too.

1D, the Most successful and the only worthy thing to come out the X Factor....Pls Confirm this peeps.

:worship:

And thanks for the article! :amazed: I'll post it in the 1D thread now.

They probably are but it's SO undeserved they're only successful because of how they look, and their songs are a special type of terrible

I think they're just another fad tbh, Jonas Brothers, Justin Bieber now One Direction

Not saying what they've accomplished isn't impressive, but it won't be long before someone else comes along and takes the attention of all the tweens that adore them

I have got to really like 1D over the last year,I am so pleased they are doing so well,nice guys

no

but they all seem nice

Two words, Les Dawson

Lol no.
And Leona's done zero promotion at all bar Daybreak a few weeks ago (lol)
Shes been in the US all week doing radio tours, her albums in the top 30 on itunes there after 2 performances (Despite not releasing any music in 4 years & disappearing :worship:) & shes got more. Her album is only really available online, supermarkets such as Tesco's etc & shops aren't selling it, no one even knows the album is out here. But shes promoting here all next week, the true release date for the UK tbh

great group, happily confirmed

Thats nice but she's nowhere near 1D's level, she's never even toured outside Europe and 1D are selling out stadiums WW :shrug:

Actually no I take what I said was back, longevity is an important factor too they could be over next year.

Kelly Clarkson imo

Leona becoming irrelevant whilst 1D carry on strong

We'll see if she comes even close to their numbers then next week....


Tbf, even Olly is closing in on her overall sales in much less time and as a Male Winner. Won't be long until she doesn't even have that that to her name and let's be real One Direction already overtook her regardless.Won't be long until Olly is 2nd.

Idk why Nathan, Drew, Leon etc pretending to like them I mean what are you trying to achieve..

True, but I don't think they are the greatest reality TV success story considering it's a manufactured band full of rejected applicants ( and reapplicants) for a talent show.

I think Kelly Clarkson who has been selling WW for over a decade (Not churning out manufactured albums yearly with no say), Carrie Underwood & Leona Lewis are the top 3 & 1D 4th.

What if we actually did like them :shrug:

LOL we like One Direction we're so contrarian and it goes against what you'd usually expect from 'lads' like us haha were so ****ing hilarious

what is actually being achieved here

Leon & Drew would be bullied at my college, anyone who likes 1D or boybands get so much flack :laugh:

Brilliant song writers and musicians

The thing is 'lads' don't like them, their target market is teen girls & gays

They're the greatest success story by far, but they're not the greatest contestants, IA with the 3 you named as the best (except maybe replace Carrie Underwood with Rebecca Ferguson just because of her critical acclaim and lack of a profile over here for Carrie)

They dont know you're a Leona fan yet then?

Kelly Clarkson is surely the true winner here or Carrie Underwood in terms of acclaim. I am more of a fan of Little Mix and Leona but being honest Kelly has been going for what...10 years? I doubt 1D will be here in a few years.

1D may have a lot of obsessed fans but when they grow out of it and the next big thing shows up they'll be out in the cold. I already outgrew them, I used to be obsessed with Zayn.

I went to one of the baitest colleges in London playing Baby by Bieber out loud.

I would be be ok x :) :laugh:


and Salman. You sounding "Presed" bro. I think Rihanna is useless wank along with half your divas, but I don't accuse you of pretending to like her. :joker:

In the real world the typical football loving masculine 'lad' would despise One Direction, it'd be very very very rare for that to be the case. I refuse to believe all the members on this site who fit that personality type are genuine fans

Leona Lewis record sales = 22M
Oly Murs = 11M
3 albums each

Pls go back too maths xx

Kelly is flawless lbr http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...8/67d90ee8.gif

are you all forgetting someone



"im praying this moments here to stay" she said right before we never heard from her again

Leona is much cooler than 1D, she doesn't appeal too teen girls & gays

You don't have to be a masculine lad to like football, that's a bit of a generalisation, I'm the furthest from 'masculine lad' you can get

One Direction have some good hits, just like I liked Backstreet Boys back in t'day

lmfao

But are you not..

I didn't say that? There are other traits too which match the people on here, like saying words like 'brah', being a fan of rap music etc

She isn't "much cooler" than anyone.

meh this thread is obviously just baiting so not gonna bother

Thats kind of irrelevant, If you go to a 1D concert, 90% are teen girls, when you go too a Leona one it's completely varied people

This is true. Both times I've seen Leona the crowed were really varied.

Cher Lloyd's swagger jagger is by far the biggest and most successful thing to come out of TXF
