Liam Payne- Boy band star who had the X factor

Getty ImagesLiam Payne first registered on the pop radar as a fresh-faced 14-year-old, trying out for The X Factor in 2008.
"I should really be concentrating on my [school] work but I just think about singing too much," he said before his first audition, his Wolverhampton accent and thick fringe front and centre.
"It's a dream and I'd love to do it."
His rendition of Fly Me To the Moon impressed the judges, as did his boyish charm – he showed a cheeky streak when he flashed a mid-song wink at Girls Aloud star Cheryl.
But Simon Cowell wasn't quite convinced he was ready, so told him to do his GCSEs and come back in two years.

As he started singing, Cowell's eyes lit up as he registered Liam's newfound maturity and charisma.
Whatever the X factor is, Liam had it.
The judges still faced a tough decision that year – so during a discussion about whom to save, they decided they could keep five boys by putting them together in a group.
Liam, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan and Harry Styles were informed they were now a boy band – and One Direction were born.
They didn't actually win The X Factor that year, coming third behind Matt Cardle and Rebecca Ferguson in a final watched by 17 million people.
But Cowell knew a good thing when he saw it. He signed them to his label and, after waiting nine months to release their debut single, they soon outpaced their rivals.
