Nickelodeon UK To Premiere Brand New "iCarly" Episode "iGo One Direction" On 16th April 2012; Postpones "iMeet the First Lady"

BREAKING Nickelodeon News! - According to this Nickelodeon UK News article on Entertainmentwise, Nickelodeon UK has postponed the premiere of the brand new special episode of "iCarly" called "iMeet the First Lady" by one week, and will premiere the brand new episode of "iCarly" called "iGo One Direction" (formally "iGot Jungle Worms"), which guest stars the UK-Irish Boy Band 'One Direction' on Nickelodeon UK and Ireland and Nickelodeon HD UK on Monday 16th April at 5.30pm (repeated at 6.30pm on Nickelodeon UK's plus one (+1) timeshift channel Nick Replay UK).
America's First Lady Michelle Obama Gives Way To One Direction?!

UK fans to see boys in iCarly episode early

She may be the First Lady of the United States, a fashion icon and arguably one of the most powerful women in the world, but Michelle Obama has had to give way to One Direction as Nickelodeon has brought forward the UK airing of an episode of hit show iCarly featuring the boys - and postponed one featuring the First Lady.

The fab five will star opposite Miranda Cosgrove in the episode, called iGo One Direction, which sees the show's star Carly, played by Miranda Cosgrove, making one of the boys ill. The episode of the show in which its star meets Michelle Obama has been moved back a week to accommodate the lads, who will perform "What Makes You Beautiful" on the show.

One Direction: So big, even the First Lady has to get out the way

Nickelodeon said that the move was aimed to give UK fans the chance to see the episode in the same week that it was broadcast in the USA, and to coincide with the season premiere of another show with a British influence, House of Anubis.

A spokesperson said: “We know our viewers are big fans of One Direction and can’t wait to see them on iCarly. We feel the same way and with the premiere of season two of House of Anubis, it is a great opportunity to make an event of the two shows and celebrate British talent on Nick.”

One Direction are poised to gain huge success in the states, with Glee featuring one of their songs and their appearance on iCarly, which was filmed in January. The band are also performing at Nickelodeon's Kids Choice Awards on 31st March.

Watch iGO One Direction on Monday 16th April at 5.30pm on Nickelodeon.

One Direction make their acting debut on iCarly

One Direction Continue Their U.S. Takeover

British boyband One Direction make a cameo in the latest episode of popular U.S. kids' show iCarly, performing their hit single "What Makes You Beautiful."

X Factor boyband One Direction take another step toward world domination this week as they make their first acting cameo in American children's TV show iCarly on the Nickelodeon channel. Harry, Zayn, Louis, Liam and Niall sang their single "What Makes You Beautiful" and were involved in the storyline of the episode, as the show's characters try to impress the British pop group. The episode will be shown in the U.S. this weekend and on April 16 in the U.K.

One Direction will already be familiar to Nickelodeon viewers as the group performed on this week's Kids Choice Awards on the channel. Their performance seemed to go down well with the celebrities in the audience, as Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry were shown dancing along as enthusiastically as the teenagers in the crowd.

Appearing in a popular children's TV show is a sign that the U.S. are really embracing One Direction as they are following in the footsteps of some of the biggest American stars. Britney Spears appeared in Sabrina the Teenage Witch early in her career, while Taylor Swift had a cameo appearance in the Hannah Montana movie.
