It's finally here! Watch the official video to One Direction's new single Live While We're Young
After this morning's very exciting leak of the video and single for One Direction's new single, Live While We're Young, the band have pulled the premiere of the official video forward to today. In fact, right now. And we've got the video for you to hit replay on for the next three hours. Don't lie, of COURSE you're going to. There's no shame here.
The band says: "We wanted our fans to see the video and hear the single in the proper way so we've moved the premiere to today. We're really excited about LWWY, we've worked really hard on it and we can't wait for everyone to see and hear it!"
The video features Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles and Zayn Malik going on the poshest camping trip ever - and who's that in Harry's bed? It's a tiger. A cuddly toy tiger.
Because we fancy all of the band (that's ok, they're all over 18) we can't help but notice a very interesting wet t-shirt shot of Zayn looking hot, and Louis also falls in a river. In shorts. Blimey, we need to go away and calm down, don't we?
Other highlights include the easiest dance routine ever (maybe they couldn't afford real canoes?), a girl who's really good at football and a lot of serious-guitar-face from Niall.
But enough talking, here's the actual video. Because that's why you're here, right? The single is released on 30 September.

Justin Drew Bieber
born March 1, 1994 is a Canadian singer-songwriter, musician, producer, entrepreneur, investor, and actor.[3][5] Bieber was discovered in 2008 by American talent manager Scooter Braun,[9] who came across Bieber's videos on YouTube and later became his manager. Braun arranged for him to meet with entertainer Usher Raymond in Atlanta, Georgia, and Bieber was soon signed to Raymond Braun Media Group (RBMG),[10] and then to an Island Records recording contract offered by record executive L.A. Reid.[6][11]
His debut extended play, the seven-track My World, was released in November 2009, and was soon certified platinum in the United States. He became the first artist to have seven songs from a debut record to chart on the Billboard Hot 100.[12] Bieber's first full-length studio album, My World 2.0, was released in March 2010. It debuted at or near number-one in several countries and was certified platinum in the United States. It was preceded by the worldwide top-ten single, "Baby". He followed up the release of his debut album with his first headlining tour, the My World Tour, the remix albums My Worlds Acoustic and Never Say Never – The Remixes, and the 3D biopic-concert film Justin Bieber: Never Say Never, which nearly tied the record for the biggest opening-weekend gross for a concert-film. Bieber released his second studio album, Under the Mistletoe, in November 2011, when it debuted at number-one on the Billboard 200. Bieber released his third studio album, Believe, in June 2012, it became his fourth chart topper in the United States, debuting at number-one on the Billboard 200.
