Congratulations, One Direction. You guys will not have to try and focus on giving a good performance while a number of beautiful models distract you.

Although we're guessing Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik wouldn't exactly mind parading the catwalk while singing to numerous fans (and gorgeous women) at the upcoming Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, a statement from the organization released today denies reports claiming the boy band have signed on to do the show.

"The recent reports regarding One Direction appearing in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show are untrue. The band is not performing in this year's show. We will announce our artists in early October."

The speculation began after The Sun released a report stating the band was about to book the show, "Their global superstar status will be solidified with this booking. Bigwigs at the Victoria's Secret and the television network CBS, which broadcasts the show, have been having meetings with the band and management. It's being said they pretty much have it in the bag as they were sold on their personalities."

Last year's runway show featured performances by Justin Bieber, Rihanna and Bruno Mars.
