Dermot O'Leary shaking his head in disbelief at the beginning says it all. Dermot O'Leary was there when One Direction was chosen and put together. Now he's in disbelief that Syco wants more.

[deenunya]

He wants to top his Millions up he means

[welsh-]

he might start melting under the studio lights

[amandahorner]

Can't the og 1 direction just reunite 😭😭😭

[Fullmoonhowl]

Thats not actually him its a melting waxwork of him

[rangochu]

Give credits to Nicole scherzinger for having the first One Direction formation! She’s amazing :)

[LowleyUK]

I can't even get my shoes that shiny. You can see dermot's reflection in his forehead

1D and BTS are special because every member exudes charm. You just want to watch them all the time because they're fun, young, and positive. Each member is just being themselves and you like the vibe they give off.

Simon Cowell didn't form One Direction, he helped, but it was really Nicole Scherzinger who formed the group by picking their pictures out at a table. There is a video on you tube that proves this...stop saying Simon Cowell formed One Direction...he didn't.

[JustNez]

Bro needs to hit up JYP for making bands

[debbiecats]

GO AWAY SIMON no one is asking for another 1d they are and always will be the one and only

[Maureen-vt]

He will never find another 1 Direction! They are and always will be the best! And don’t you forget that!

[peeg]

He's made his money. One Direction were a once in a lifetime. Same with Little Mix to a lesser degree.

[DJTomOke]

When he says 'bands', he means groups

[N.E.Singh]

I would audition but I don't qualify at 47..

[alain_de_frothcorn]

14 years since Nicole Scherzinger picked 5 members to be in a boy band and 14 years since Simon Cowell took the credit for it!!

[AdikiaMedia]

Simon Cowell is living proof that money can’t buy you happiness

[marie-joselelan]

The reason he wear red glasses it s because he gets migraine with the bright lights ❤

[patriciadevlin]
