My daughter has decided this should be the mascot or next member of One Direction and she takes it everywhere.

One Direction is the UK pop boy band that is the result of the X Factor UK from the 2010 season. Each member auditioned individually and it was guest judge Nicole Scherzinger who brought them back from elimination in the Boys category, to tell them that they would do best a group. After practicing for two weeks and working together on the show, their bond was obvious and they placed third in the competition.

If you want to get a little more fan frenzy for your buck, there are other teddy’s available.
