Simon Cowell Is on the Hunt to Create a New Boy Band After One Direction

Simon Cowell, who put together One Direction, is looking for talented performers to create a new boy band

While Cowell was a judge on The X Factor in the 2000s, he famously brought together Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik and Liam Payne to form One Direction in 2010. “A huge number of solo artists began their journey in a group and have achieved great success, including Beyoncé, Sir Paul McCartney, Robbie Williams and our very own One Direction,” he reflected. He is looking for “talented males aged 16-18 who possess the passion, charisma, and star quality to form the next boy band sensation.” Anyone interested in trying out for the group can fill out an application on Cowell’s website.
