We haven’t seen any boy bands for a long time . . . until Simon Cowell’s One Direction landed. One Direction was the only overseas boy band to have their album debut at #1 on the Billboard Top 200. Their first hit single, What Makes You Beautiful, currently sits at #7 and peaked at #4, fourteen weeks ago. With many appearances on shows such as SNL and iCarly, the group seems unstoppable. It is estimated by many sources that the boy band will be the biggest boy group EVER by 2014 . . . PAUSE. We must not forget the boy bands that paved the way; The Jackson 5, Boyz II Men, N’Sync, Backstreet Boys, New Kids on the Block, B2K, etc etc this list goes on and on and on . . . When I heard this, estimation, I was shocked that anyone would ever say this . . . Do you guys agree?

One Direction is already the biggest boy band.
