One Direction unveil 'Glee' cover of 'What Makes You Beautiful'

Boyband One Direction have treated their fans to an exclusive preview of the 'What Makes You Beautiful' cover that was recently recorded by the cast of 'Glee'.

The heartthrobs took to their official Twitter page earlier today (May 4) to share the full track and explained that it will feature in an upcoming episode of the popular U.S. musical series:

"'What Makes You Beautiful' will make it’s Glee US debut this Tuesday, May 8th. You can listen to the Glee version before it airs next week!"

The Daily Mail newspaper has quoted member Niall Horan as saying, "to have a song in Glee is just fantastic. We're all big fans of the show and are so excited they chose 'What Makes You Beautiful' for an episode."

The lads aren't the first British group to receive the 'Glee' treatment as back in February the show picked up 'Glad You Came' by The Wanted, which was met with a fantastic reception among the band's fans and Gleeks alike.
