Simon Cowell has been busy pulling together another (hopefully) big-hitting boyband to dominate the music charts.
Taking to Netflix to film a documentary, Simon Cowell: The Next Act, where he scouted the country for the best new young male talent, the former X Factor judge is now introducing his new act - December 10.
Featuring seven members in total, Simon is hoping his new boyband will reach One Direction levels of fame and popularity.
But who are December 10? And why did they choose that name for their band? Here's everything you need to know, including their names and ages, as they prepare to take over the charts.
Why is Simon Cowell's band called December 10?
After airing his audition process, along with snippets from his private life, Simon revealed his new seven-member boyband called December 10.
Many fans thought it was an unusual name but it's actually quite sentimental as it was the release date for their documentary, Simon Cowell: The Next Act.
