To the whole wide world,
Hey everyone, it’s us, One Dimension. First, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our fans. You’re seriously fantastic. We could not ask for more genuine support. These past years together as One Dimension have been the best of our lives. Touring the world, hanging out with rich, influential people, dating whoever we please, getting into all sorts of shenanigans backstage—it’s all been such a blessing for us.
However, our extensive touring has unfortunately taken a toll on us as well. And to be frank, we are completely exhausted. This is something we never thought we would have to say, but after we complete the final 68 shows of our Blowin’ Up The World Tour, One Dimension is calling it quits.
Trust us, this saddens the boy superstars of One Dimension more than anyone else on Earth. We put our whole lives into performing our music. Knowing that we will only be singing our classics like “Baby’s Got A” and “Making Fun and Melody” to 68 more sold-out crowds is surreal. It’s something that we know is going to take some getting used to for everyone.
Ever since Zerek left the group to pursue a paralegal career, we just haven’t felt the same. Even though we’re called One Dimension, we were always meant to be five distinct points—some more important than others. We have been doing our best to continue without the celebrated Zerek, but Petri can’t keep covering all of his parts. The idea of picking up a replacement for Zerek has been thrown around. But this to us just feels like an inorganic attempt to continue something that inevitably, like all things, simply has to end.
The last thing we want is for you all, our gracious, loving fans, to feel like your actions had anything to do with our decision. This was something One Dimension came up with all on our own. We just hope you can accept that it’s time for us to move on to new endeavors. Your undeniable adoration will stay with us forever. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you for everything.
<3,
Your One Dimension boys: Zerek, Larry, Harold, Shiloh and Petri
