Posted March 29, 201411 yr http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a556/jennacolemanfan/OneDream_zps89606348.png http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a556/jennacolemanfan/pic_zps710e62a7.png In 2010, Zayn Malik, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson auditioned as solo contestants for the seventh series of The X Factor. In the Boys category, they failed to qualify for the Judges' Houses round of the competition. All hope was lost. A story later told in the five piece's documentary film 'This Is Us', Louis stood on the stage hand-gesturing his hopeful mum in the audience telling her that it was all over; until Simon Cowell made the decision to put him with four other boys in a group that would soon be known as One Direction. Their first port-of-call however was to decide what they were going to wear. They subsequently qualified for the next round under the Groups category. Join us as we take a look back over the next week at where it all started for the boys that we have grown to love and adore for what is almost four years! With their foetus looks and individual charms (topped with incredible vocal abilities among the five of them), who would have guessed they'd have gone on to become one the biggest boy-band on the planet and sell millions of albums, top year-end charts and win awards by the dozen?

March 29, 201411 yr I remember Liam's audition very clearly, but I wasn't too impressed with that performance at the time, or now. I don't remember seeing any of the other auditions back then! How the hell Louis sailed through that audition with three yeses I'll never know. :kink:
March 29, 201411 yr Author How the hell Louis sailed through that audition with three yeses I'll never know. :kink: http://imageshack.com/a/img41/8978/pe88.gif At least he apologised for it on 'This Is Us' :kink: (although he still has a lot to apologise for from 'Up All Night'-present x) Like you, I only really remember Liam's audition, but I've watched them all back and Harry's was rather stunning. :wub:
March 29, 201411 yr Author I just can't at Louis' hair. :puke2: 'mop' must've been the in-look back then :lol: It's Liam's voice that still gets to me (even now). SO jarring! http://static.entertainmentwise.com/photos/Image/gifney2.gif

April 4, 201411 yr I remember Harry, Liam and Niall's auditions as clear as daylight actually. Thought Liam was decent, really liked Harry and Niall though. Was love at first sight with Harry, wanted to like his singing from the moment I saw him :kink: He didn't disappoint x Louis' audition isn't brilliant lol, he's lucky he got through I think. Zayn's moment didn't come until bootcamp... :kink:
