About Liam Payne

Liam James Payne was born on August 29, 1993, in Wolverhampton. At just 14, he auditioned for The X Factor in 2008, advancing through several rounds before judge Simon Cowell asked him to return two years later.

In 2010, Payne returned to The X Factor as a solo competitor. Following a suggestion from guest judge Nicole Scherzinger, he was paired with Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik, leading to the formation of the boy band One Direction.
Although One Direction finished third on The X Factor, their popularity surged post-show. Their debut single, “What Makes You Beautiful,” was released in September 2011 and topped charts worldwide, earning the Brit Award for British Single of the Year in 2012.

The band’s first album, Up All Night, launched in November 2011, achieving massive international acclaim and making them the first UK group to reach number one in the U.S. with a debut album. They went on to release four more albums: Take Me Home in 2012, Midnight Memories in 2013, Four in 2014, and Made in the AM in 2015.

After One Direction went on hiatus in January 2016, Payne released his solo album, LP1, in December 2019.
