5 Seconds

SECONDS TO IMPACT: Does manager Richard Griffiths have another One Direction on his hands? Capitol's Pop breakout 5 Seconds of Summer has sold out its first-ever headlining tour in five minutes. The 10-city trek kicks off on 4/11 in San Francisco and concludes on 4/25 in Wallingford, CT. After an eight-date U.K. warm-up tour (which also sold-out in five minutes), the Aussie teens will join One Direction (with whom they share Griffiths' Modest Management) for a North American stadium tour that begins on 8/1. The latter date is also when 5SoS' EP She Looks So Perfect hits retail; pre-orders began last week, driving the set to the top of the iTunes chart. The title track impacted Top 40 this week; its video, meanwhile, garnered more than 1 million VEVO views in 24 hours. Of course, the group earned 40 million YouTube views and countless social followers before officially releasing any music. Does the band's fanatical British following (replete with hordes of screaming girls who follow them everywhere) offer a hint of what awaits them in the U.S.? (3/5p)
