One Direction turn down First lady

One Direction turn down First lady - Boy band passes on White House invite, The British boy band One Direction has turned down Michelle Obama's invite to the White House's annual Easter Egg Roll. The group met Obama at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards. They reportedly had to decline due to scheduling conflicts.

Hot British export One Direction have turned down an invitation to the White House.
First Lady Michelle Obama invited the boyband to Monday's annual Easter Egg Roll when she met the gang at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday.
But the five-piece - comprised of Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Zayn Malik - have not been able to free up their schedule.

A spokesman for the group, which was formed on the UK version of the X Factor in 2010, told Politico.com they had to decline 'due to prior commitments' and will be in Australia.
It was previously reported how Mrs Obama had asked the group to come to the White House after being bowled over by their performance over the weekend at the Los Angeles event.
Ever the charmer, Harry amused the First Lady by asking how they order pizza from the White House.
Michelle replied that they make their own.
Harry went so far as to call Michelle a 'very attractive older woman.'
Michelle in turn was obviously impressed with the British boys, and her daughters Malia, 13, and Sasha, ten, were every bit as excited as their mother, bouncing away alongside her.
Styles – who has dated 32-year-old Xtra Factor host Caroline Flack, said he had ‘too much respect for Barack’ to comment on the First Ladies’ stunning appearance, while Payne happily rated her an 11 out of 10.
He said: ‘She’s a very classy woman, very elegant.’
Sadly due to commitments in Australia, One Direction were unable to accept Michelle's invitation.

Royal wedding more than 24.5 million UK viewers, Prince William and Kate Middleton's Royal Wedding was watched by more than 24 million terrestrial TV viewers in the UK, according to overnight estimates from industry body Barb. The BBC achieved a large share of the UK viewing figures for Friday's (April 29) ceremony, with a peak figure of 20 million tuning in to the corporation's broadcast of the Westminster Abbey service. More than 34 million people caught at least some of the Royal Wedding coverage through the BBC, including on its iPlayer service, reports BBC News. Sky News said it had a peak of 661,000 viewers at the start of the wedding ceremony, while BBC Two, Channel 4 and Five only made up 1 per cent of the audience as the nuptials began. William and Kate's service is now in the all-time top 10 programmes in the UK, but drew less viewers than the 1966 World Cup Final (32.3 million) and Princess Diana's funeral in 1997 (32.1 million).

Guinness World Records Most live streams for a single event

Guinness World Records Most live streams for a single event, The YouTube broadcast of Prince William’s marriage to Catherine Middleton (both UK) in London, UK, on 29 April 2011 achieved a record 72 million live views, as people from 188 countries around the world tuned in to watch the event on the company’s official Royal Channel.
