Matthew Morrison, who portrays Spanish teacher Will Schuester on the Fox musical drama GLEE has revealed that One Direction's 'What Makes You Beautiful' will be featured on an upcoming episode of the show. 

Commented Morrison, 'I've just heard of them, they're really taking over the States. We are covering one of their songs on 'Glee' - 'What Makes You Beautiful'. I need to YouTube it to practice... They've made it now though, they're on 'Glee' This will probably help their record sales too.'

The British boy band features Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan. The group debuted their album Up All Night in the US on March 13, 2012. Up All Night is already a global success entering the charts at #1 in 6 countries including Sweden and Italy and top ten in 12 more and has been certified triple platinum in Ireland, double platinum in the UK and platinum in New Zealand & Australia.

One Direction joined Big Time Rush's "Better With U Tour" on February 24th in Chicago and their US debut kicked-off with the highly successful grassroots BRING1D2US online campaign which saw the band break records with social media platforms Twitition and Twibbon. The campaign engaged thousands of fans across America to complete weekly challenges for a chance to win the Grand Prize of a special 1D event in their city.
