One Direction headline 2012’s BBC Radio 1’s Teen Awards live from Wembley Arena in front of an audience of thousands of teenagers. The superstar pop band give a live performance to kick off the awards which celebrate inspirational teenagers who have really made a difference, as well as stars from the worlds of entertainment, sport and music.
Presented by Radio 1’s new breakfast show hostNick Grimshaw on BBC Radio 1, the star-studded ceremony also features performances by Taylor Swift NeYo, Fun, Conor Maynard and Little Mix. The action starts with red carpet arrivals followed by the ceremony and music performances, along with backstage news.
