One Direction on list of most influential BritsOne Direction have been included on a list of the 500 most influential Britons. Debrett's have revealed their annual list of the most powerful Brits and a host of music stars feature. As previously reported, the likes of Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith are included in the rundown. Boyband One Direction meanwhile included as a result of their global pull and attraction. The group only started in 2010 after being pieced together on the UK X Factor from five solo contestants. They have since released four albums, with many reaching No.1 across the world. Debrett's chief executive Joanne Milner said in a statement: "We are delighted to announce this year's Debrett's 500. It's a fascinating mix of people, and not entirely who you might expect. "Every individual, though, demonstrates outstanding qualities of influence, achievement and inspiration."
