The 'Little Things' stars will appear in a live-stream interview to help the music mogul's latest venture.
One Direction are helping Simon Cowell to launch his new online talent show – You Generation.
The music mogul is creating a new YouTube platform for wannabee artists and performers to upload their own clips from around the world.
The boyband will appear as part of a promotional campaign for the show this week - taking part in a live interview.
The new project aims to take palce across 26 countrues and will let artists show off their skills by simply uploading a clip.
The contest will run for an entire year with contests taking place fortnightly.
All forms of talent are being considered from "make-up artists to style gurus, chefs to vocalists" and all judged by Simon's executives.
You Generation goes live on Wednesday, March 20 with the One Direction live stream.
