The X Factor and One Direction
Styles tried out for the seventh season of the British singing competition “The X Factor” in 2010 at his mother’s suggestion. He didn’t make the cut for the “Boys” category after making his on-screen debut as a lone competitor and failing to impress the judges.
He was placed in a group with four other age-group single competitors who were also eliminated, and they collectively advanced in the competition under the “Groups” category. Styles was in this group with Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, and Louis Tomlinson. See his Instagram post below:
