One Direction: Harry Styles 'could be bigger than Justin Bieber' if he goes solo!

One Direction tour

One Direction star Harry Styles has reportedly been told he could become as big as Justin Bieber if he ditches his bandmates.

The curly haired popstar has been spotted embarking on some solo projects away from the group, which has sparked rumours he may wish to go solo.

Bookies Ladbrokes are even offering odds of 3/1 that the singer will have his own track out by the end of the year.

A source tells Star magazine this week: “Harry was told he can be as huge a global star as Justin [Bieber].

“He laughed about, but he has started to realise there is real truth in it.”

But another source insisted that Harry will never be leaving One Direction “permanently”.

The insider explained: “He loves being in One Direction so it’s unlikely he will leave permanently but he definitely wants to do some stuff on his own too.”
