Why Are One Direction Fans And 5 Seconds Of Summer Fans Banding Together?

Some bonds are best forged through the fires of a Twitter feud.

One Direction fans rushed in to support the 5 Seconds Of Summer fandom on Twitter in their time of need as the hashtag #5SOSIsDeadParty began trending on Sunday (Dec. 27). The hashtag, supposedly started by Fifth Harmony fans, took off after a controversial

But despite the initial backlash, the fans have been staying true to their boys, and with the Directioners’ support, doing their best to stem the negativity of the hashtag.
