Maybe there wasn't tbh, I could be mistaken. Still, though... That's a whole new scary and creepy level of devotion. They're probably all kids/teenagers. This is where the parents need to be supervising their interactions on social media IMO.

I'd be the same, I'd be "devo" as some of them are saying. But I'd say, fair enough, they have their reasons for calling it a day, but we still have the music they made.

I do feel quite sorry for him. He's only 22 and they've been going for 4-5 years. I know it was his choice to join the band, but he's lost the last 2-3 of his teenage years and 2 years of his twenties.

It's not just kids/teenagers who are devoted to 1D, read something a few years ago about a woman sending her underwear to a member of the band.... A GROWN WOMAN, LET THAT SINK IN - Parents can't supervise kids on social media, it's near impossible, if they aren't at a computer, probably on smart phones, or whatever they do in their private time.

HYPOTHETICALLY If Alter Bridge called it a day tomorrow - AB fans would be devastated, but the music will live on, but then again a reunion could bring the band back together again a few years after the breakup - Money is a powerful thing.

Whatever Zayn does, i hope he enjoys the normalcy of life, i said it earlier, he's probably made his money and thought ''**** it, i'm out'' hence his departure.

Yeah true. I heard of one woman getting a huge portrait of Westlife tattooed across her entire back. People do crazy stuff for bands and band members. Someone sent Jared Leto an ear, no joke. That said, I did see a Myles Kennedy tattoo the other day that was very cool. Personally, I wouldn't go that far. Says she who has lyrics from Blackbird inked on her foot.

Of course we would be devastated but I can't see AB fans going that far, you're right.

Can't blame him for leaving. He's probably set up for life now.

Boy bands seem to attract a totally different kind of fan base though. There's a level of hysteria like no other when it comes to fans of boy bands.

x Purple Pawprints x

They really do, it's bizarre.

KKkitty

Wonder how long it'll be til the others decide to leave though.

x Purple Pawprints x

Yeah. In fairness, they lasted an awful lot longer than most people expected.

KKkitty

And didn't even win the X Factor.

x Purple Pawprints x

Oh yeah, who actually won that year? I only watched it the year James Arthur won. He's kinda sexy but seems to be a bit of a d**khead.

KKkitty

Actually had to Google it but Matt Cardle won that year.

It was hilarious when someone campaigned to get Rage against the machine to the Christmas number 1 slot.

That worked, didn't it? Amazing how social media can be so powerful.

That is a good use of Internet mobilization

KKkitty

Seeing as the vast majority of the winners are no where to be seen it should be a sign that the X Factor should be cancelled.

It's like the winners disappear into irrelevance after winning the show

Or the countless sob stories off of those talent shows.

"Someone who I lost wanted me to make it, so I'm doing this for them." *Sniff*

I am sick of the sob stories and people who can't sing being wheeled out just to be ridiculed.

aaronjumper

Let us not forget the overly long, over used pauses when announcing losers/winners to build tension.

And the winner/person going home is. . .














That person over there.

So most of them then.

My one problem with the current season of Arrow, I wish they'd use the

Suicide Squad

a whole lot more than just the odd appearance.

Why is Cupid in the Squad? That crazy female dog needs to be locked up, not armed and sent off to kill more people

She's a part of the Squad only at Diggle's request. Plus they needed someone nuttier than the last woman they had on the team.

Good idea, "Our last crazy chick tried to kill us and failed. Let's get another one who's worse."

If they get enough of a following they might look at doing a spin off, like they did with Flash, is what I'm guessing.

That's true, though i don't see how a Suicide Squad tv show could work.... Then again maybe the Suicide Squad in Arrow is only being used to build awareness of the movie of the same name being released next year out into the movie going public's conscience.

I remember the old Flash tv series. I bet it has aged terribly!

Yeah DC trying to cater to DC, throw a few names around see what sticks and either give it a tv show or a movie. All about what the fans want.

Might have to give that a look, is it anything like the 60s batman tv show?
KAPOW!
