One Direction's new documentary DVD trailer has just hit the Internet. The DVD is called The Only Way is Up, and it's the second film documentary of new millennium's British boy band. Although brief, the trailer features great footage of the 1D boys as well as a slew of celebrity fans as disparate as Zac Efron and Jerry Springer. Jerry Springer--a Directioner? Who knew?
Yes, now that 1D's North America tour is completed, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, and Zayn Malik are spending most of their time holed up in the studio working on their next album. Good for them. But how will their huge fan base of rabid--er--zealous Directioners get by without them? Well, there's an answer to that too. A brand new 1D DVD will be released on August 7. It's called The Only Way Is Up, and it tells the exciting story of the five guys' meteoric rise to global fame and fortune. In addition to images of the guys performing, travelling, meeting their fans, joking around with each other, and otherwise just living their blessed, charmed lives, the DVD also includes interviews with 1D's celebrity fans, including Piers Morgan, Kelly Osbourne, Simon Cowell (of course), and the entire cast of Glee.
So, there you have it. The latest dope on the new British invasion known as One Direction. Enjoy the trailer clip below. And try not to scream.
