One Direction have turned down the chance to reappear on The X Factor over fears they're not yet up to the job.

Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan have reportedly been approached by Simon Cowell to join the show as guest mentors in a bid to boost flailing audience figures. 

The boys recently appeared on the Australian version of The X Factor and although Harry said helping out groups mentor Ronan Keating 'was really cool and fun', the former contestants have turned down SiCo's offer.

Louis, 20, told The Sun: 'We don't feel like we are in a position to be giving strong advice.'

And it's not like the boys could do with the extra cash with the five-piece earning an estimated £100million between them since their X Factor inception two years ago.

And as news of their wealth emerged earlier this month, Harry has reportedly forked out a whopping £3million on a 'party pad' in north London.

A source told The Mirror: 'A lot of Harry's friends live in Primrose Hill and Belsize Park, so he wanted to move closer to them.

'The new house is enormous. It has four bedrooms and as many bathrooms, as well as a few huge, open-plan living areas.

'It's the perfect party pad.'
