Spin the bottle is so 2011 -- 2012 is all about the new game, Spin the Harry! The guys of One Direction took it upon themselves to invent a new game where member Harry Styles is tossed around on a couch until he finally lands on a set of questions that the contestants (aka the other members of 1D!) have to answer. And of course, with member Louis Tomlinson as the host, hilarity ensues!

In other One Direction news, it was just announced that they guys will be performing at this year's Kids' Choice Awards on March 31.

What do you think of One Direction's game Spin The Harry? It is cute or crazy?

One Direction member Zayn Malik has been forced to temporarily leave the band's nationwide tour with Big Time Rush due to a family tragedy, fellow group member Harry Styles announced on Twitter today.

"Zayn has suffered a loss in his family and has had to go home for a few days, so [he] won't be at our next shows in the US," Harry Tweeted. "Our thoughts are with him and his family at this sad time."

While there's no official word yet on just how long Zayn will be away from the tour, the upcoming shows likely to be affected include Mashantucket, CT (March 1), Washington, DC (March 2), and Boston, MA (March 3).

Join us in leaving your condolences for Zayn and his family below.

Leave it Big Time Rush's Carlos Pena to ask One Direction the hard-hitting questions. During BTR and 1D's tour stop in Toronto, Carlos made a video for Carlos Pena TV with Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Zayn Malik, he asked the guys about their craziest moment from tour and they spilled all about game they call Real Life Fruit Ninja. "You get an orange, banana, or apple, chuck it in the air, and you slice it with a knife," Zayn says. But Louis took it one step further and showed Carlos.

Take a look at One Direction's Real Life Fruit Ninja game:

And the crazy moments didn't stop in Toronto. Niall also Tweeted to BTR after their show in Albany, NY, "Thanks for embarrassing me bigtime today! that was scary," and James Tweeted back, "Anytime man! Haha, glad you're on the tour. We need to grab a bite in the next day or so!"

Jessie star Debby Ryan does it all -- and now she's starring in new Disney Channel Original Movie, Radio Rebel! The actress spilled to J-14 all about the movie, her own insecurities, and she set the record straight on what's going on with her and Niall Horan from One Direction! Check out Radio Rebel when tonight at 8 p.m. on Disney Channel!

J-14: Tell us about your character.
Debby Ryan: My character Tara is painfully shy, she's afraid to talk to anyone, afraid to talk to her crush, and afraid to step out of her comfort zone. She's very shy, but she's also kind of hip. She has a voice and she knows what she stand for. She loves music, discovering new music, and loves bringing it to people.

J-14: What happens in the movie?
Debby: As she's radio DJing, she has this private little podcast, and then it grows and helps gets her a job at a radio station. The show becomes huge and she ends up leading this entire revolt against this injustice in their system, really helping people stand for themselves, for what they believe in, and their individuality. I feel like there's something inspirational about it.

Imagine if Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Zayn Malik all met each other more than a dozen years ago -- and filmed One Direction's "One Thing" video then!

That's exactly what a group of five babies did (well, with help of course...) -- and their "One Thing" video has the editors of J-14 Magazine, who also edit the LOL magazine Yikes! Magazine, laughing so hard. Now we're rooting for them to form 1D Jr.!

There's nothing better than One Direction and Justin Bieber coming together -- and this video of 1D's Liam Payne singing Justin's first single, "One Time," is the ultimate combination!

Although Liam has since grown out his locks, back when this video was made he even looked a bit like Justin! In fact, Liam admits that he was often mistaken for Justin in the past. "It's a compliment," he says. "But I want to be known as Liam from One Direction, not Bieber." Check out Liam's cover of "One Time" below:
