Boyband's US invasion continues in guest spot on the popular Nickelodeon show.

One Direction feature in a new promo for an upcoming iCarly episode.

The group will guest star on the episode as themselves opposite Miranda Cosgrove, Jennette McCurdy, Nathan Kress, Noah Munck and Jerry Trainor.

The plot revolves around the quintet performing their hit single 'What Makes You Beautiful' on Carly's live webcam show, when things go awry.

Made up of singers Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, and Niall Horan, One Direction have shot to huge success in the US, with their album Up All Night going to number one on both the Billboard and iTunes charts.

Their appearance on iCarly marks just one in a series of US television appearances. The band will be performing tonight (March 31) at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards. They are also set to perform on an episode of Saturday Night Live.

However the boys recently quashed rumours of them having their own Nickelodeon show, similar to bands like Big Time Rush and the Jonas Brothers.

The One Direction episode of iCarly is scheduled to air April 7 on Nickelodeon [USA, and on Monday 16th April at 5.30pm on Nickelodeon UK and Ireland and Nickelodeon HD UK].

There's no denying that the One Direction lads are talented. Not only have they managed to make history in the US, they've now made their acting debut on hit Nickelodeon show, iCarly.

The episode which will air in the US this weekend, shows Harry Styles and co perform their hit song, 'What Makes You Beautiful' on Carly's webcam. However, as always, not everything goes to plan...

Tweeting about working with Harry, Zayn, Niall, Liam and Louis, when they started filming at the beginning of the year, the show's boss wrote:

"I'm having the BEST time working with One Direction today here at iCarly. Such a nice, talented, professional, FUN group of guys. :)".

It appears as though the feeling was mutual with the lads as they spoke of their time on set:

"We were nervous when we got on set but we had such a fun day hanging around", Liam gushed.

UK fans need not panic as the episode featuring the band will be broadcast on April 16.
