X Factor's Harry 'Quit School Band' For One Direction
The X Factor's Harry Styles reportedly quit his high-school group, White Eskimo, to join the hottest new boyband around, One Direction.
According to The Metro, the 16-year old heartthrob ditched performing at their school for the bright lights of the XF stage and his ex-bandmates allegedly are more than happy for him.
White Eskimo bass guitarist, Nick Clough, said of Harry: "We’re happy for him and wish him all the best. We’ve not split up but it’s been difficult while he’s away without a singer."
