Write a letter to: Liam’s birthmark


Columbia Records
There are a million reasons to love 1D’s Liam Payne. He’s super nice, has an amazing voice and is always smiling. Liam’s pretty perfect in every way, but there’s one special feature Liam has that makes him truly unique. What is it? His neck birthmark! The one-of-a-kind mark is totally special to Liam — and it makes him who he is! Once, Liam noticed his birthmark was missing on a photo. His response?

“My birthmark is gone! In the harsh standard of the celebrity world, there’s no space for birthmarks. That’s not even me, that’s an imposter.”

We love Liam’s birthmark pride. Now, we want to know why YOU love Liam’s neck birthmark.
If you could write a letter to Liam’s birthmark, what would you say? Write your best love letter to it (start with “Dear Liam’s birthmark…”) in the comment section below, and you might just see your words inside September BOP! Have fun!

1D’s Advice to Little Mix!

British girl group Little Mix (Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwall, Jesy Nelson and Leigh-Anne Pinnock) are blowing up. They’re on the cover of Seventeen this month and inside, they spilled some awesome secrets – including what advice fellow Brits One Direction had for them.

“I asked the boys from One Direction how to make it in America and they basically said: ‘Be yourself and you can’t go wrong. People know when you’re trying to be someone you’re not. Just be true to who you are.’ So that’s what we’ve been doing!” Leigh-Anne spilled.

Do you think Little Mix will be as big as 1D? Sound off in the comments and on Twitter!

Smell Like One Direction

Okay, we can’t actually promise that you’ll smell like One Direction, but 1D will like the way you smell. How do we know? The boys are following in the footsteps of oh-so-many famous faves before them and releasing their own fragrance. Since the boys are behind the scent, we feel like that’s proof they love it.

“As a band, we have been discussing making a fragrance for our fans for quite a while so we’re really excited to finally have this opportunity,” Niall dished. “We’ve been working away on this and we’re very proud of the way it has turned out – we really can’t wait to hear what our fans think.”

The scent is set to come out in just a few months, meaning you could easily be 1D-scented by back-to-school. Do you think YOU’LL buy a bottle of the fragrance? Sound off in the comments and on Twitter!

WATCH: One Direction Go a Little Crazy Backstage!


Lou Teasdale/Vine

With all that downtime in between performances, you might think it would get a little boring for stars when they’re on tour. Well, apparently not for One Direction…these silly guys can find ways to entertain themselves with whatever they have!

Go behind-the-scenes with some vids of their crazy backstage antics! Makeup artist Lou Teasdale posted the one above on her Vine account, of Harry messing around in a coat rack.

Harry also posted some of his bandmates going wild on some concert equipment. Watch Louis maneuver a forklift like a race car while Zayn zips by on a Segway. Good thing Louis didn’t get a ticket driving that car around! Read the rest of this entry »

Perrie’s Prank on Zayn!


Twitter

Anyone who has been to a sleepover party knows that it’s dangerous to be the first one to fall asleep in a group of people. It looks like Zayn Malik of One Direction still needs to learn that lesson. He dozed off while hanging out with girlfriend Perrie Edwards and her bandmates from Little Mix today and Perrie took full advantage of his deep sleep to play a harmless (but hilarious) prank on him: She gave him a Little Mix manicure!

Perrie tweeted the pic above from the official Little Mix twitter with the caption, “The perks of your boyfriend not waking up through anything. Pretty LM nails Zayn (; Perrie <3."

What do you think of Perrie’s prank? Tell us in the comments!
