One Direction's Niall Horan thanks fans for making 'Midnight Memories' global hit

One Direction star Niall Horan has thanked his band's fans for making their new record a worldwide success.

The group released their third album 'Midnight Memories' on November 25 and it instantly rocketed to No.1 across the globe.

In fact, it debuted at No.1 in a staggering 97 countries and gave One Direction their third chart-topping album in a row in the States.

Speaking to Ryan Seacrest, Horan thanked his fans for purchasing the record and making it such a huge success. He said:

"A huge thank you to anyone who is listening to this right now and who has bought our new album Midnight Memories, because what it’s done in the charts this week is just ridiculous. We are trying to get our head around it now. Thank you so much to everyone, because we spent a lot of time working on it and we’re glad that everyone likes it. So, thank you."

One Direction meanwhile featured on iconic US TV show Saturday Night Live this weekend (December 7), which was hosted by Paul Rudd.
