One Direction is set to embark on their "On the Road Again" World Tour, and they have invited Australian "X Factor" champion Samantha Jade to be the opening act for their entire Australian tour, Daily Telegraph reported.
Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Niall Horan and Zayn Malik were pretty busy last year. This year, they have an even more jam-packed schedule as they are set to kick off their fourth headlining concert tour "On the Road Again" to promote their recent studio album "Four."
One Direction's label and Jade's management have yet to make an official announcement about the deal, but an insider told Daily Telegraph that Jade was thrilled about the news and that she couldn't wait to perform for the boys and their tens of thousands of fans.
The British boyband will have their first show in Sydney, Australia on Feb. 7, and will make their way through Brisbane, Adelaide, Melbourne and finally in Perth on Feb. 20, according to Daily Mail.
Jade isn't the only act that will be joining One Direction, as it has been announced that the band's good friends from McBusted have also been invited as a supporting act, according to MTV UK.
McBusted, which is the amalgamation of bands McFly and Busted, announced the news through a video posted on YouTube.
One Direction member Horan was also quick to tweet about it on Monday, saying, "What dreams are made of, touring! and @mcbusted tour with you! I've deffo done a little wee with the excited of it all."
Busted member Matt Willis even tweeted Horan and invited him to sing his verse off the song "3am" on stage during the show.
It's unknown as of yet as to who will join One Direction for the North American leg of tour. Rumors have it that they may be joined by singer-songwriter Jamie Scott, who has worked with One Direction on some of their tracks, according to Inquisitr.
Scott has also been teasing fans on Twitter about going on tour all over America with friends, but kept mum on just who these friends were.
One Direction previously invited Australian group 5 Seconds of Summer to open for their "Take Me Home" tour last year. Ever since then, Luke Hemmings, Calum Hood, Ashton Irwin and Michael Clifford became household names and saw much success. No doubt Jade and McBusted will get a bit more attention and a possible career boost when they join the British boyband next month.
