One Direction fans really are something to behold, they can almost out crazy the cult of Beliebers in terms of random Twitter outbursts about anything and everything their icons do.
OMG! HARRY IS PICKING HIS NOSE! I TOTES LOVE HIM!
That’s the sort of thing you can usually expect from them. But now they’ve hit a new low and actually managed to ruin the launch of a brand new top of the range DSLR camera from imaging giants, Canon.
You see, this week Canon announced the latest model in their flagship line, the Canon 1Dx.
Photographers around the world salivated at the tech specs and professed their undying love and desire for the new model on Twitter.
But the joy shortly turned to disgust and outrage as all hashtags and searches for Canon 1D related tweets were hijacked by ill informed tweens, positively gushing with adoration for their favourite X-Factor rejects.
Where once their was discussion about ISO sensitivity and a greater FPS shooting capacity, there lay praise that someone had finally made a One Direction branded camera, because that’s what the people (and by people we mean teenage girls and creepy middle aged women) really want.
Once the last horses finally crossed the finishing line, well after the photographers had bolted back to Flickr, messages such as “That awkward moment where you realise the Canon 1D has nothing to do with 1D,” were tweeted and re-tweeted and re-tweeted again, to the sound of Canon’s Digital PR manager shooting himself in the head… probably.
Canon have remained surprisingly tight lipped on the matter, although a source hecklerspray spoke to said that the wall of silence is due to fact that no one is actually that sure about who One Direction are, or why they have so many fans on Twitter.
So, there you have it, One Direction fans are officially too stupid to know when to shut their mouths.
Either that or they were paid off by Nikon.
