I always like to hear how the older fans got into the fandom. I am a 46 year old mom of three and was just totally blindsided by this endearing funny group of guys. I personally was watching the Adventurous Adventures of One Direction and didn't get the inside jokes. In my 'research' of watching as many you tube videos as I could I just found them to be so f-in funny! Particularly Louis! My kids are embarrassed that I like them, but I do not push it on anyone. At least I can have an intelligent conversation about them with my teenagers friends! Overall, it has brought me to tumblr and I was lucky to find many others like myself, older fans, who just enjoy them and can see through the Modest! crap. My only hope is that if (when?) they move on to other things that their friendships/relationships remain intact, and that they are happy and healthy. Nothing is worse than seeing the devastating effects of being a young celebrity. So my question to all of the fans is, " How did you end up here?".

I heard their songs on "Just Dance 4" and thought they were catchy so I looked them up on youtube.

My kids have totally learned and loved songs from genres they would never have listened to normally from games like Just Dance and Rock Band. My kids sing Eye of the Tiger from Rockband all the time, and I know they turned the radio station before when it came on. I think its great, actually. So Shaniatwain, so you looked them up on you tube, but what did you like about them on youtube?

I remember them from TXF, these 5 lads on stairs. When I first saw them I remember thinking, oh this curly and the other one (I didn't known his name then), really have crush on each other, they're so flirty! But you know, I forget about them for some time. Then WMYB came and I remembered them, but I focused only on their music. Then few months ago I saw people writing something about Larry, so I was curious. Well and now I can't get out of this fandom. Larry 4ever! hahaha Sorry for my english
