The Two Holdouts Are Floppy And Cranky

[Blind Gossip] Now that the members of this band have had a chance to do their own thing and cool down out of the white hot spotlight, talks are spinning up about reactivating the group!

Here’s the thing. Three of them are in and ready to go…

Their solo careers didn’t quite work out as well as they had hoped, and they realize they need to jump back in soon if they want to make serious money from a reunion.

… but two are holding out!

One is happy where he is.

If his career was flopping, he would probably be more eager to rejoin. However, he is doing fine on his own. Plenty of success and opportunity. He wants out of the contract that specifies continuation of the group.

And the other is not in any kind of shape to even consider a reunion.

He’s not really in any shape to do this. He’s not talking to anybody. He is very cranky and seems to hate everybody and everything.

So the problem is that Floppy is not flopping… and Cranky is shutting everyone out!

    One Direction.

    And the ones who don’t want a reunion are Harry whose career is going pretty well and Zayn

  5. Panda says

    One Direction
    Niall, Liam, and Louis
    Harry and Zayn

    Nope, TBH, these reunions rarely if ever work and even take away from what was there before. I hope Harry manages to become a serious actor, the others have plenty of money and could do something interesting and rewarding with that, other than reforming the same band.

    One Direction

    I don’t know the names of the band members except the ones that make the gossip pages. One named Tomlinson, or something like that, probably wants to reunite.

    Harry Styles is probably Floppy and Zayn Malik is Cranky.

    I don’t know if they will reunite.

    Band: One Direction

    Three Who Are In: Niall Louis and Liam (surprise surprise)

    Floppy and Cranky: Harry and Zayn
    Don’t really picture Zayn ever rejoining. Harry would for a reunion tour but probably not full time

  13. JoshuaTree says

    One Direction

    Harry Styles has always been floppy here.

    Zayn the addict for cranky.

    I thought Niall Horan did really well as a solo artist. Got solid radio airplay and proved to be a great singer/songwriter. He’s had more hits than Harry has.

  14. SilverLining says

    Band: One Direction

    Three Who Are In: Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Liam Payne

    Floppy and Cranky: Harry Styles & Zayn Malik, respectively

    [Optional] Do you think they will reunite this year? Ever?: maybe a one-time 2019 performance, but probably only ever on a temporary basis in the future as Harry seems better off as solo artist (as he’s now doing acting too) & Zayn has severe addiction/mental health issues that he needs sorted; when feasible, H & Z may adjust to help out the other…

    Floppy and Cranky: Floppy is Harry – why would he want to go back to a band where his image is tightly controlled? He has to portray himself as a hetrosexual womaniser and tbh that’s clear he is not. I honestly think it almost broke him at times.
    Cranky: Zayn and I don’t consider him as part of the band anymore.
    I hope they do reunite but only if things are different from before.

  17. Mumpus says

    One Direction – Floppy and Cranky = Harry and Zayn?

    Think they will reunite for a tour. Seems to be the done thing.

  21. BluntSavage says

    One Direction. Floppy is Harry and Cranky is Zayn.
    They will reunite if Harry’s career takes a hit and Zayn gets better.

  22. Mischief Girl says

    The group is One Direction.

    The one not in any kind of shape to consider a reunion is Zayn Malik.

    The other one…Harry Styles? Or Louis Tomlinson. Not sure which one.

  23. snowymoon says

    Unless all of them truly flop… Nah

  24. Dalquist says

    Got to be One Direction with Harry being the one who has no intention of going back. Take your pick for who the cranky one is.

  25. otter24 says

    Floppy is Harry and I’d say Cranky is Zayn?

    I loved 1D, but I’m not sure I want a reunion unless it was natural. Which at this point it would never be.

  26. MiaIrish says

    Band: 1D

    Three Who Are In: Liam, Niall & Louis

    Floppy and Cranky: Harry & Zayn ( but since Z left doesn’t the ‘paperwork’ state that he is no longer under contract?)

    [Optional] Do you think they will reunite this year? Ever? Nope. And Nope.

  27. showmancer says

    One Direction
    Nial, Liam & Louis are in
    Harry Styles is ‘doing fine’
    Zayn..not healthy enough

  31. MiaIrish says

    Band: 1Direction

    Three Who Are In: Liam, Louis & Niall – though I thought Niall did very well.

    Floppy and Cranky: Harry & Zayn ( but when Z left, wasn’t he officially out of the contract?) Plus, he’s acting like he never wants to go back)

    [Optional] Do you think they will reunite this year? Ever? Nope. And Nope.

  34. jogale says

    Floppy = Harry Styles/ Cranky = Zayne Malik.
    No they won’t reunite unless it’s for a 10/20 year reunion tour.

  35. London Guy says

    One Direction obvs

    Harry Styles is the hold out who doesn’t need to reunite and Zayn the junkie is the cranky one…

  36. cassadaga says

    Band: One Direction

    Three Who Are In: Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson.

    Floppy and Cranky: Harry Styles and Zayn Malik, respectively.

    Think whether they reunite is down to whether Harry can get out of the contract or not, to be honest. He’s the big star.

  37. angelbratt says

    1direction

    Three who r in? The other three guys

    Floppy – Harry styles
    Cranky – Zayn Malik

  38. aaababe says

    one direction
    floppy : harry
    cranky : zayn

    will they get together again ?
    yes, but NOT in near future.
    – the day the money runs out .. yes eventually

  40. EmmaTheRevelator says

    At first I thought NSYNC but the band seems to all still get along even though Justin is an egomaniac and I don’t think a reunion would make much. I was a die-hard NSYNC fan and I wouldn’t pay to see them again. So…One Direction? Harry and Zayn?

  41. sawyer says

    One Direction

    Louis, Niall and Liam are in.

    Harry is Floppy and Zayn is Cranky.

    They’re never getting back together.

  42. Nchaniago says

    3: niall, liam, louis
    Floppy: harry styles
    Cranky: zayn
    I think they’ll reunite, but not this year

  43. celebfan89 says

    This has to be One Direction, right? Floppy is Harry Styles and Cranky is Zayn Malik. As much as I would love a FULL One Direction reunion, I don’t know if it’ll happen. I also think Niall is working on a second album like Harry is right now. And what’s up with Louis’ album release continuing to be pushed back? Seems like Niall, Louis, and Liam would be the ones in in this case. I don’t think they’ll be reuniting this year, but maybe in a few more years once they all get solo tours in.

  47. thomk065 says

    Harry, and Zahn? I’d that their names? I can’t imagine they will find an audience. The girls that liked them grew up. They need to wait 15 years so the former fans can get in the nostalgia phase of life. Like New kids.

  48. gossipzillaisback says

    Band: 1D
    Floppy and Cranky: Harry Styles (Floppy for the hair) and Zayn Malik (Cranky)
    Three Who Are In: the other 3.
    [Optional] Do you think they will reunite this year? Ever? Yes they will, but Zayn may miss it if he ODs before.

  49. tracey_m says

    Yeah, I’m not into One Direction but I don’t think any of those guys want to go back. From what I’ve seen, they all seem happier (well, maybe not that one who was the judge on the reality singing show). It’s not like they’re hurting for money. They can do what they want as opposed to being in a plastic boy band.

  50. Dragon Lady says

    Band: One Direction

    Three Who Are In: Louis, Liam, Niall

    Band: One Direction
    3 Who Are In: Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Liam Payne
    Floppy: Harry Styles
    Cranky: Zayn Malik (is he still *officially* still a member of 1D?)
    No reunion for a couple of years. Harry is working on his 2nd album so he’ll be busy promoting that. Also he’s in demand so probably has lots of projects planned. His solo career is going phenomenally well (musically, acting, producing, hosting stints on J Cordon’s show, being extremely good looking).

  53. jrizzo says

    Ooh, easy blind!

    One Direction
    Niall, Louis, and Liam are in
    Floppy is Harry, Cranky is Zayn

    This year? No. Ever? Still no. Maybe if Harry and Zayn’s careers don’t pan out. And idk what’s going on with Zayn but Harry seems really happy where he is and that makes my heart happy too

  54. FromAnotherDimension says

    Band: One Direction
    3 who are in: Liam, Niall and Louis
    Floppy: Harry Styles obviously
    Cranky: Zayn Malik

    I wasn’t aware that Zayn can still come back….nice that he has the option

  56. sabrina325 says

    One Direction. Three that are in: Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson. Floppy: Harry Styles. Cranky: Zayn Malik

  57. sherri says

    One Direction

    Louis, Niall, Liam are in

    Harry Styles and Zayn Malik are out

    For the right amount of money, they’ll reunite.

  61. amagod121 says

    One Diection

    Three in: Louis Tomlinson, Liam Paine and uhhhh that other one. Niall Horan.

    Floppy: Harry Styles

    Cranky: Zane Malik

    Not seeing it happening for ten or more years. Maybe never. The three who want to should just get together and tour as a group without Harry and Zane.

  66. jenskii says

    Obviously relates to One Direction and its about Harry and Zayn. I feel bad for the other 3 because theyre obviously keen to reunite. I’m surprised a bit at Harry wanting out though. I don’t get why he can’t just go back to the band for a few years, fulfil the contract then they can all officially split. If they’re all contractually obliged though then they HAVE to honour that eventually I guess.

  67. shannonleew says

    Liam Payne, Niall Horan , Louis Tomlinson

    Lime Payne, Niall Horan, and Louis Tomlinson.

    Floppy: Harry Styles
    Cranky: Zayn Mali

    Floppy being a reference to Harry’s hair, while Zayn is… Zayn.

  71. rebeccadewinter says

    One Direction

    Floppy is Harry Styles
    Cranky is Zayn Malik

    The other three want to get back together.

  73. filthycop says

    One Direction –

    Louie, Niall & Liam are in

    Harry and Zayn holding out…

    No, I don’t think it’ll happen this year – much to my daughter’s dismay

  75. SugarCookie says

    I don’t care if they reunite, they’re boring, mediocre talents

    If Harry Styles wants to pursue his acting career I can’t see him returning to the band.

  77. cho555 says

    One direction
    3 who are in: Niall Liam Louis
    Floppy and cranky – harry styles and zain malik

  78. researchboy says

    Group: One Direction

    “Floppy”: Floppy-haired Harry Styles, who’s doing just fine on his own.

    “Cranky”: Zayn Malik, who may have added crank to his pharmacology of drug issues, for all I know.

    I think they will, for however briefly. A contract’s a contract, and Harry doesn’t want to spend his best years in court. And Zayn can be sent away to sober up. (It won’t last, sadly, but at least it’ll allow for the reunion.)

  79. Sketty says

    One Direction – the 3 no marks are in (I can’t even recall their names). Floppy is Harry (floppy hair) Styles and Cranky is Zayn (it would kill him to smile) Malik. They’ll probably reunite briefly for something a bit rubbish if the two holding out can’t get out of the contract.

    Floppy: Harry obviously

    Cranky: Zayn also obviously

  91. justme84 says

    *NSYNC? The band never had a formal termination. They just never really came back after a break and Justin pursuing his own career.
    Joey, Lance and Chris are on board but
    Justin is independently successful.
    JC could be holding out because he has gotten physically out of shape and he might be cranky because he is more talented than Justin and Justin always got all the credit and JCs album didn’t do well.
