Join the UK’s hottest new boyband on their rollercoaster ride to superstardom, with the follow-up to the Number 1 bestselling book One Direction: Forever Young: Our Official X Factor Story
Former One Direction band member Zayn Malik is releasing his first autobiography, which will include personal photographs and drawings, presenting his own story so that fans "can judge me on my own terms, not on what the press or anyone else says."
Five talented boys, with one common dream: to make it to the top in the music industry. This is the story of Harry, Zayn, Liam, Louis and Niall, who all auditioned as individual competitors for the X Factor in 2010 and formed the boy band One Direction – aka 1D – under the guidance of the British television show. Thanks to talent, hard work, social media, and the popularity of the show and its live tour, this British-Irish boy band has proved that they have what it takes to reach the top of the charts. The X Factor was in its seventh season when the UK's newest pop icons first appeared on screen. From five young guys who didn't know each other, One Direction quickly established themselves as an up-and-coming band and now has an impressive devoted fan base of Directioners, a #1 debut single, "What Makes You Beautiful," and the debut album "Up All Night," which started at #2 on the UK Albums Chart and became the fastest-selling debut album of 2011 in the UK. In the US it did even better and it debuted at #1. This epic rise made One Direction the first UK group in history to hit the top spot on the US Billboard 200 with a debut album! Each pack includes a 64 page One Direction book with illustrated storage sleeve and six 8 x 10 inch prints.
"To be a fan is to scream alone together." This is the discovery Hannah Ewens makes in Fangirls: how music fandom is at once a journey of self-definition and a conduit for connection and camaraderie; how it is both complicated and empowering; and how now, more than ever, fandoms composed of girls and young queer people create cultures that shape and change an entire industry. This book is about what it means to be a fangirl. Speaking to hundreds of fans from the UK, US, Europe, and Japan, Ewens tells the story of music fandom using its own voices, recounting previously untold or glossed-over scenes from modern pop and rock music history. In doing so, she uncovers the importance of fan devotion: how Ariana Grande represents both tragedy and resilience to her followers, or what it means to meet an artist like Lady Gaga in person. From One Directioners, to members of the Beyhive, to the author's own fandom experiences, this book reclaims the "fangirl" label for its young members, celebrating their purpose, their power, and, most of all, their passion for the music they love.
