"BRIT" Invasion?

Who are the artists / BOYBANDS making a scene and topping the charts? Who are the movie actors you're ultimately having crushes on and dying to watch their latest movies on the big screen? What book series topped the best-sellers list in the US, UK and around the world? (--- young people these books are not for you) And who's the model who currently won America's Next Top Model?

Wait. I'll try to answer those ONE by ONE.

MUSIC SCENE STEALERS/CHART TOPPERS

ONE DIRECTION. THE WANTED. CHER LLOYD. ADELE. These are just some of the music artists headlining and on the spotlight when were talking about the music of today's generation.

ONE DIRECTION (Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Zayn Malik) *inserts millions of screaming girls and "FANGIRLING over them*, is a British / Irish boyband who appeared on the hit talent show, The X Factor UK. They finished off as the third runner up for the 7th season (2010). Well not being the winner for that season set them off from reaching and fulfilling their DREAMS.


It didn't took long enough for them to release a debut single (What Makes You Beautiful) and album (Up All Night), which even led them into winning a Brit Award this year. *clap clap clap* That's not the end of it, when Up All Night was released in the United States it went straight to number one on the Billboard 200, selling 176,000 copies in its first week. Thus, entitling One Direction as the first UK group in history to achieve this feat with their debut album. *throws confetti waaaaaaaaah!*

THE WANTED. *Proud of these guys too aaaaaaaah* Getting their song chosen as the theme song for the movie "Ice Age: Continental Drift" Pretty much, one of their major achievements in the U.S. Seen the music video or NOT? Well, here it is. . .


FAMOUS ONES

Edward Cullen. Batman. Spider-Man. All of the actors portraying these roles have one thing in common...They're all BRITISH! You can catch these UBER HOT MEN on their up and coming movies. Andrew Garfield - The Amazing Spider-Man (June 29, released date here in the Philippines). Christian Bale - The Dark Knight Rises. Robert Pattinson - Cosmopolis and on the EPIC FINALE of The Twilight Saga (The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2)


BOOK JUNKIES

FACT 101: Fifty Shades of Grey originally started out as a TWILIGHT FANFICTION. Original Title: Master of the Universe or avid readers call it as MOTU. Writer's Pen name at that time: Snowqueens Icedragon.
AND NOW . . . .
Title of the book series: Fifty Shades Trilogy (Fifty Shades of Grey, Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed) Author: E.L. James

The story follows through with the RELATIONSHIP of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele. *Book contains EROTIC SCENES*

Bestseller. And now, already in talks for a movie. Everything just happened quickly! Bow down to E.L. James.

PASSION FOR FASHION

America's Next Top Model Cycle 18, dubbed as the "British Invasion". The winner for this cycle was Sophie Summer (BRIT all the way).

Music. Movies. Books. Fashion. See? The Brits have it all.


The Brits invaded every single aspect. Is it safe to say already that the Brits have loads of influence in today's generation?


Think. Think. Think about it, guys and gals!

  1. honestly,i've never heard that word"Brit"invasion before ,not until this British/Irish boy band called One direction came into the spotlight,became famous and invading into the U.S. making their albums to be in the highest chart as no. 1.Since then talents and artist that came from UK was recognized and they are really making names in the music industry nowadays.So i think that so called "Brit" invasion influenced a lot of people today.They must be really very proud for they are not only known invading the U.S. but worldwide..:)
