One Direction has had a meteoric rise to fame since the group competed on "The X Factor" U.K. in 2010. After coming in third place on the show, One Direction signed to Syco Music, the record company co-owned by "The X Factor" executive producer Simon Cowell and Sony Music.

The group's debut album, "Up All Night," has been a No. 1 hit in several countries. The album's first single, "What Makes You Beautiful," has also been worldwide hit, reaching the Top 10 in numerous countries.

So far, One Direction has announced headlining concert tours for 2012 and 2013 in the U.K., Ireland, the U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand. All of One Direction's headlining tours have sold out within minutes.
