Josie and One Direction

I have just discovered One Direction.  They're pretty good!  Whose the guy with the long curly hair?  He's cute!

I'm not totally obsessed with them, because I wasn't shocked with their voices.  I was shocked with Greyson Chance, though.  I was thinking, Whoah, crap!  #1, who the heck is this guy, and #2, where can I find his number?  Seriously.
