One Direction Oscars snub 'disappoints' Simon Cowell

He had hoped their This is Us documentary would put them in line for a gong - and that Best Song Ever would land Best Original Song

He’s had his hands full lately, but I hear Simon Cowell is rather put out the Oscars voting panel overlooked Harry Styles and his other One Direction lads.

Simon hoped their This is Us documentary would put them in line for a gong after breaking box-office records around the world.

He also hoped their hit Best Song Ever would land Best Original Song, and was stunned when it didn’t even make the 75-track shortlist.

The documentary was produced by Morgan Spurlock, former Oscar nominee for Supersize Me which, Simon felt, put it in a good position.

A source said: “Simon is disappointed. Some of the tracks on the list are virtually unknown.”
