One Direction is considered to be one of the most successful bands in the music industry.

One Direction member Harry Styles received a nomination at the 2021 BRIT Awards for his hit single, Watermelon Sugar.

Directioners were quick to celebrate Harry Styles’ nomination on social media. But soon they noticed that apart from Harry, none of the other One Direction boys bagged a single nomination. One Direction fans were especially angry over Louis Tomlinson’s album Walls receiving zero nominations. No wonder #Louisdeservedit began trending on Twitter in no time.

Many fans simultaneously celebrated Harry’s nomination and Louis Tomlinson’s snub on social media. Apart from #Louisdeservedit, fans also began trending #ProudofHarry. One Direction fans also did not hold back and even chose to shame the BRITs for their 2021 nominations. One fan even suggested cancelling the 2021 BRIT Awards altogether.

Apart from being miffed about Louis Tomlinson’s snub, many One Direction fans were quick to point neither Niall, Zayn, nor Liam got a nomination. Since all of their albums were quite successful in the UK. Hence fans were also quick to trend #Niallgotsnubbed.  Take a look at all these tweets below.

Niall Horan himself joined in on the fun. The Heartbreak Weather singer might have noticed these trends started by One Direction fans. He himself tweeted, “snubbed”.
