Simon Cowell didn't form One Direction, he helped, but it was really Nicole Scherzinger who formed the group by picking their pictures out at a table. There is a video on you tube that proves this...stop saying Simon Cowell formed One Direction...he didn't.

To be fair, One Direction are as big as Manchester United at this point. They have so many fans from around the world I mean half of the fans don’t live in the UK and also One Direction make a lot of money with selling merchandise just like Manchester United. They are both like a brand.

On the one hand, sure. We’re missing an English lang boyband since some of BTS lyrics require translation and harder to sing. And my kids love 1D, so they’re a target demographic. On the other, predominantly female and teenage audience drives merch and concert sales, and it’s shaping up to be two summers of women dominating music. So, is Simon broke that he needs to take on such massive project? And, also, we all know that Alison is 100% 1D fangirl/fanwoman, and she’s not sold.

Simon looks well to be fair

Isn't that why he created x factor the band to find a band I think because it wasn't a boy band that won he wants one all about the money
Like he says He’s been doing this 4 a few years ever since 1D split up they’re solo but the next 1D definitely this time it’s gonna happen next up looking 4 a girlband still haven’t done that yet either cause 5th harmony r solo now and so r also little mix so yeh that should do 2

Again , poor little Liam , Harry . Nial and the other one having all that money and girls falling over themselves for them . Must have been a horrible time.

I lost interested in and out- Each season id only see some of the auditions then fase out,, Robbie williams judging i watched lil bit more but i gave up totally from that,, Its all the obvious fixes,, I grew up in 90s and 2000s, heard all the bands take that - sugarbabes even mixture bands - libraty x- big brovaz that popd up on my feeds otherday took me right back,, Good times for bands x factor and pop idol ect,, I feel like x factor had the break it needed,, It be interesting to see it back totally revamped zero fixes
Wonder if X factor will be coming back then
@ssectorlap

Maybe not in a long while but if it does come back there needs to be changes like I don't want producers manipulating the contestants or even forcing them what producers wanted cuz that has been an issue too much. Another would be stop putting worst acts through if they can't even sing, look weird, or even have bad/affected/fake attitudes. I miss the seriousness of X Factor when we watch Bootcamp cuz that's a serious challenge. Also I want auditions to be arena auditions again in 6 locations: North (Glasgow), Middle (Manchester), South (London), East (Leeds), West (Birmingham), and Dublin. Bootcamp needs to be serious again, no 6 Chair Challenge just Judges Houses and 10 weeks of Live Shows with 16 finalists even the 10000 arena final.
