Interview with One Direction – Idol Sweden 2015
Harry Styles ‘blasts ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift’s catalogue of break-up songs in upcoming One Direction single Perfect’
One Direction are preparing to drop their new single, Perfect.
And the hugely-anticipated track reportedly includes a lyric that appears to bash Harry Styles’ ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift, asking whether he was just ‘someone to write break-up songs about’, according to The Sun newspaper.
The song appears to be a thinly-veiled critique of the pop princess’ penchant for discussing her former flames in her music, famously penning recent singles Style and Out Of The Woods after her short-lived relationship with Harry.

Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan and Liam Payne are now thought to have made £19k every day last year… each.

Harry who? How One Direction’s Liam Payne transformed his boyish looks with hardcore gym sessions and an edgy quiff to be crowned ‘sexiest man alive’
With his mop of curly brown hair, cheeky smile and boyish charm, Harry Styles has always been considered the heartthrob of One Direction. However, it seems he has been overtaken in the lust-worthy stakes by fellow band member Liam Payne.
The 22-year-old What Makes You Beautiful singer, from Wolverhampton, has been crowned Attitude’s Sexiest Man Of The Year – toppling last year’s champion, Olympic diver Tom Daley.
While pop hunk Liam was absent from Wednesday night’s award ceremony due to sickness, he tweeted his graduate to the gay lifestyle magazine: ‘@AttitudeMag thank you for all your support it was amazing to shoot with you and thank you for the biggest compliment in my life so far.’

‘It was never really his kind of bag’: One Direction’s Liam Payne reveals the real reason Zayn Malik sensationally quit the band after five years
He sensationally quit the band in March saying he wanted to be a ‘normal 22-year-old.’
But One Direction’s Liam Payne has shed more light on Zayn Malik’s shock departure, revealing that one of the reasons he left after five years was because of the band’s music.
Speaking to Kate Garraway on Wednesday’s Good Morning Britain alongside fellow 1D star Louis Tomlinson, the Wolverhampton-born singer said: ‘One Direction was never really Zayn’s kind of bag, if you know what I mean.’
He elaborated: ‘His taste in music was a bit different, and I guess that’s kind of what drove him to do what he did in the end, which is not necessarily a bad thing.’

Irving Azoff Is Not One Direction’s Manager, Despite Golf Site’s Claim
Countless deals have been made on golf courses, but a video on a golf site isn’t exactly where you’d expect to get breaking news about the music business.
In an interview on the show posted Tuesday, host Harry Arnett refers to The Eagles, Maroon 5, Fleetwood Mac, Journey, Christina Aguilera and One Direction as artists who are “represented, or have been represented” by Irving Azoff.
One Direction have long been managed by veterans Richard Griffiths and Harry Magee of Modest Management, but considering the recent rumors that Azoff was hot on the trail of the group’s No. 1 heartthrob Harry Styles, did Arnett inadvertently just break a huge story?
Well, not quite. While Azoff did not correct Arnett directly on the show — “You got about half the list right” — but he did Tweet on Wednesday morning:
1D still in the capable hands of Modest. Golf guys should stick to golf….
