Liam Payne and Justin Bieber were once embroiled in a bitter feud, which ultimately ended when they both realized they were suffering from the "same disease."

Payne’s first audition, in 2008, ended him with “making it as far as the judges’ camp with Simon Cowell,” when he was let go, Daily Beast reported. “I was really young then and I wasn’t ready,” he said in the second audition video, which occurred two years later. “Now I’m 16 and I’m back and I’m ready to give it another shot.”
