According to the BBC, a rep for the White House confirmed the invite, but sadly the guys has to decline, as they will be on tour in Australia at the time. We're sure fist daughters Malia and Sasha must be pretty bummed!
Despite their White House rejection, it seems the 1D boys are great fans of the Obamas ... or at least of the fist lady! "[Michelle] is a very classy woman, very elegant," the Guardian reports Liam Payne as saying. Payne also rated the FLOTUS "an 11 out of 10" in the looks department. Fellow One Direction member Harry Styles, meanwhile, said he had "too much respect for Barack" to remark on the first lady's appearance. What a gentleman!
