One Direction Lights Up *The X Factor USA* Stage with an Electrifying Performance of ‘Kiss You’ – Unforgettable Moment!
One Direction delivered an electrifying performance of their hit “Kiss You” during The X Factor USA 2012 finale. The boys brought their signature energy to the stage, showcasing a lively and polished act that matched the fun and upbeat tone of the track. The performance took place just before the announcement of the season’s winner, country singer Tate Stevens, and added a pop-infused highlight to the evening.
Dressed in coordinated outfits and exuding their usual charm, Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, and Louis Tomlinson captured the audience with their synchronized choreography and playful stage presence. The vibrant set design complemented the song’s retro-inspired vibe, which had also been a theme in its music video.
Their appearance not only thrilled the live audience but also underscored their growing dominance in the U.S. music scene at the time. Earlier that month, the group performed “Kiss You” on the UK version of The X Factor, solidifying the track as a fan favorite from their album Take Me Home.
After the performance, Liam Payne shared a light-hearted moment with host Mario Lopez, discussing the contestants’ pre-announcement nerves. The evening highlighted One Direction’s rising stardom and their ability to deliver unforgettable live performances, leaving fans excited for what was to come next.
