Simon Cowell has launched auditions for a new boy band and is reportedly inviting trans men to participate. Cowell aims to replicate the success of One Direction, formed in 2010 from his singing competition. Following a lackluster initial turnout of just 40 attendees at the Liverpool auditions on July 7, Cowell is broadening his search. A source told The Sun that this inclusivity could be a “game-changer.” Auditions will continue in Dublin on July 28 and 29, with more dates in London scheduled. #Trans Rights
