One Direction

Sure, they have yet to follow up “What Makes You Beautiful” with as big a radio hit, but that doesn’t take away from this British quintet’s astonishing accomplishments, including releasing two of the top-selling albums of the year and selling out arenas for a 2012 spring/summer tour AND for a 2013 tour.
