One Direction are not annoyed about their lack of Grammy Award nominations.
The band have not been nominated for any of the 83 prizes on offer at the prestigious US ceremony despite their third album ‘Midnight Memories’ being the biggest-selling album worldwide in 2013, but insist they are not angry about being blanked because there is such a high quality of music up for the prizes.
When asked if they were surprised not to be shortlisted, Harry Styles, 20, told BANG Showbiz: "I don’t think so, I think there’s so much incredible music out there, I don’t think you can kick off."
The ‘Steal My Girl’ hitmakers – who performed the single at the inaugural BBC Music Awards at London’s Earl’s Court last night (11.12.14) – recently made history with their new album, ‘Four’, becoming the first band in the US Billboard 200 history to have their first four albums all debut at number one.
However, the group – which also features Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne and Niall Horan – said they are pleased with their achievements in their career such as the chart milestone, and the two American Music Awards they picked up in November.
Harry added: "When you look at the list of nominations, everyone is incredible so it’s not like… people have different opinions and there are a lot of awards shows we do get nominated for so we’re lucky for those things."
