Niall visits Big Bird

Niall Horan and his One Direction bandmates added another string to their bow recently when they became the latest pop stars to appear on the iconic children’s show Sesame Street.

The chart-topping boy band have followed in the footsteps of such musical superstars as Billy Joel, Johnny Cash, Beyonce and REM by paying a visit to Big Bird and his pals. One Direction have reworked their song What Makes You Beautiful for a new alphabet song, What Makes U Useful. The broadcast date of the show is yet to be announced.
