Niall Horan – (One Direction)

Niall Horan was born into the world on 13th September, 1993, in Mullingar, County Westmeath, Ireland. When at school he showed talent for singing and performing. At the young age of 16, he auditioned for the TV show The X Factor and was accepted into the competition. Although he did not make the final rounds as a solo vocalist, he joined forces with four other contestants to form One Direction.

His parents, Bobby and Maura Horan, divorced when he was a child. He and his older brother, Greg, moved back and forth between their parents' two households before settling in with their father.

Niall was a pupil at Coláiste Mhuire, a Christian Brothers School. Niall was into music from a young age, from about 5 or 6. He started playing the guitar when he was about twelve, and one year later he entered the school's talent show, singing The Script's 'The Man Who Can't Be Moved'. He didn't win, but got a lot of local press and good comments.

For his first The X Factor audition, guest judge Katy Perry had to decide if he would go on in the competition. She said he might have a "seed of talent" so she put him through.
