One Direction Obama Invitation: Will Boy Band Perform for First Family?

No, the carefully coiffed boys of One Direction haven't been called up to the big leagues to perform for the newly re-elected president at the 2013 Inaugural Ball à la Beyonce. The British boy band has, however, reportedly been given an open invitation to bring their five-part harmonies to the White House any time they see fit!

According to the Daily Star, a 1D insider has revealed that First Lady Michelle Obama personally reached out to the heartthrobs to ask them to swing by the White House. "It's an open invitation for a date to be ­arranged that fits in with everyone's busy schedules," the source said.

First daughters Malia, 14, and Sasha, 11, have apparently become big fans of the boy band after hanging out with the guys at the Kid's Choice Awards back in March. "It's not every parent who can invite the hottest band in the world to their home," the source continued. "They will be the envy of girls across the world."

That admiration is mutual. Member Niall Horan has previously admitted to being a "massive" fan of President Obama. Hopefully, One Direction wont go breaking Malia and Sasha's hearts and will accept the FLOTUS' invite. Earlier this year, the group turned down a chance to perform at the White House's annual Easter Egg Roll due to scheduling conflicts.

And while we can't all invite One Direction into our homes, we can stream their entire new album, Take Me Home, a full day ahead of its Nov. 13 release date on AOL Music's CD Listening Party. Just click the button below!

OK, one more time for the record. Stop using the term BOY BAND. A band plays instruments. A bunch of idiots with marginal singing talent that don't play instruments is called a SINGING GROUP.

What a joke! It seems they are more interested in the Hollywood life then doing their real job.Seems to me this country has a lot of work to be done then inviting celebs over and going on talk shows!
