One Directioners Set For Biggest Ever Weekend on Twitter

The biggest weekend ever for @onedirection fans on Twitter is here! Directioners have sent over 700 million 1D related Tweets in 2015 so far. Mind. Boggling. But which country loves 1D the most?

@onedirection has partnered with Twitter in a global competition to find the 10 countries with the biggest fans and give them their own One Direction Twitter emoji. For one day only, fans from 140 countries will battle it out in a Twitter vote to show their loyalty using designated 1D country hashtags.

But before the world collides to find the biggest fans, everyone will come together in a moment of @onedirection peace and love. Six exclusive Twitter emojis featuring Louis Tomlinson (@Louis_Tomlinson), Harry Styles (@HarryStyles), Niall Horan (@NiallOfficial), Liam Payne (@Real_Liam_Payne) will be released and their brand new album “Made in the A.M.” – coming out this Friday. Tweeting a @onedirection Twitter emoji is simple. Just use the hashtags #1D, #MadeinTheAM, #1DLouis, #1DHarry, #1DNiall, #1Liam, and the corresponding 1D emojis will automatically appear after your Tweet.

And here's what they look like.  Aren't they cute. Obviously the Niall emoji is best.

While the emojis have been revealed and the competition is kicking off tomorrow at midnight GMT and ends exactly 24 hours later. You’ll be able to see the results live at www.madeintheam.com. And, in a world first, Twitter emojis will be designed for the 10 countries who receive the most votes. The winning fans will be able to bask in the glory by using the same hashtags from the vote but this time to show their winning colours!

C'mon Ireland - let's be havin' ya! Our hastag is #1DIE... which is a bit unfortunate, but we'll get over it.

Have you a Directioner in your life?
