A British-Irish boy band consisting of Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Jay McGuiness, Tom Parker and Nathan Sykes. The Wanted came about when everyone realised that Take That and Boyzone were in their forties with wives and kids and legally, couldn't be titled a boyband. They were put together by the woman behind The Saturdays and Parade(?).

They have so far managed to churn out two albums and score number ones with All Time Low and Glad You Came.

Recently, they have been out trying to 'crack' America, only to find that the much more loved One Direction are doing the same, with more success. Having said that, they're not doing half bad.

Recent The Wanted stories

One Direction - the war is over One Direction are no longer banned from radio 23/05/2012 - 12:04 by Tim Chipping This is news that won’t affect your life in any way, but it is a wryly amusing tale of how very big bits of the music industry can behave like a small boy pulling his pants down and screaming in a supermarket, hurting no one but themselves. The unofficial boycott of the unfathomably successful boyband One Direction has been lifted by Capital FM. It’s a pop Perestroika. Comments: 1
The 2012 Billboard Music Awards The Wanted, Justin Bieber and Natasha Bedingfield at the Billboard Music Awards 21/05/2012 - 12:05 by Tim Chipping It was the 2012 Billboard Music Awards in that America last night (May 20). They're probably quite important since Billboard do their equivalent of the Top 40 countdown with Kid Jensen (or whoever does it these days. Reggie Yates probably). Anyway, Natasha Bedingfield was there. I know, right? But also pretty much everyone who is currently big in popular music these days was there, in nice frocks. Adele wasn't there, even though she won 12 awards. TWELVE! But to put that into persepective, LMFAO won six. So they were basically giving them away to anyone. JUST LOOK AT THE PICTURES! Comments: 0
