It seems like ages ago that Simon Cowell put together the boys of One Direction on ‘X Factor,’ but it’s only been two years since their inception! Today, July 23, the massively popular boy band celebrates their anniversary. Click for more pics of the band from the beginning! Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik were brought together by Simon Cowell on July 23, 2010, after the boys individually tried out for the UK version of X Factor. One Direction went on to place third, but have gone on to win many awards including three Teen Choice Awards on July 22! The boys picked up three surfboards for Choice Breakout Group, Choice Summer Music Star Group and Choice Love Song for their Billboard Hot 100 hit “What Makes You Beautiful.” (FameFlynet/Landov)
