The Wanted, 'One Direction Aren't Rivals'

The Wanted People interview. 'Glad You Came' reached number five on US charts last week. Nathan: 'If you look at One Direction's chart position and then look at ours, they're not really even our rivals. They have different fans to us. We don't want their fans, they're too young. We laugh and say that their fans are our fans' younger sisters. We have our own success going on in America and it isn't just with the music. We are extremely fortunate to have the best-looking fans, they are absolutely beautiful, so fit. But there is one big difference between the American ones and the British ones.
We find British girls very cute but very shy so they take a bit more hard work to crack. On the other hand, the American girls are forward and loud. We're cleaning up with the Americans. If they're interested then we will know about it, they will tell us they're interested and then we swap numbers. Let's just say that after that it usually ends up in a positive outcome. We find we have to try a lot harder with our British fans. We can't wait until the American spring break because we are going to Las Vegas. Our tour manager has told us that he is not going to stop until he has got us the fittest girls there so that is something some of the boys and I are definitely very much looking forward to. We're mostly all players, apart from Max, who is going out with Michelle.
She loves hearing our stories about us and our fans. Michelle loves getting involved in the gossip, sometimes she comes to watch us perform with a load of her friends and she tries to palm them off on us. Once this battle is over with One Direction we are going to take them for a drink, and we'll show them who can drink the most. I think they will enjoy the experience of seeing us being able to drink a lot more than them. I think we can drink them under the table, when we're on tour we go out drinking every third night so we have had plenty of practice. We tend to start on beer and then go on to spirits. Then of course we will take the 1D boys to a strip club. I would love to see their faces when we suggest that.
I think it's highly unlikely they have ever been to one before.. Unlike One Direction we don't have Simon but we don't need him either. He is too controlling for us, we like to have control of our own music. We are too outspoken, we want to choose who we work with and we want to work with a lot of different ones. We are so focused on ourselves. We like to sit and write our songs, decide what we do but, like any of the X Factor acts, One Direction don't really have much of a choice about what they do. Of course having Simon behind a project is an amazing thing to have but we haven't suffered by not having him. We have got on the Ellen show and we're going on Jay Leno so that speaks for itself. We are so proud, we are doing this for Britain. If you had asked any of us two years ago if we thought we'd be here today, we'd have laughed in their faces.'
Jay: 'I slept with more girls in America in one month than I have for a whole year in the UK. The boys who are not single help me, they make way for me. And Americans' boobs are lovely. There are a lot of fake ones.' What makes the boys so popular with the US hotties? 'Our accents. We'll be in a club and we'll see the girls coming over and they'll tell us they love our accents. Then things take their course.. One Direction are smashing it. Along with Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez they are on the front of all the teenage magazines in America because the young girls love them. But, on the other side of the coin, we are on the radio stations talking about our music.'
Tom: 'It is a massive achievement to be bigger than Take That Back For Good is such an amazing song so to beat them is huge. Now we're being compared to The Beatles, which just takes the p*** most of us aren't even old enough to have a legal drink in America.'





they're definitely successful and talented in their own right, but to belittle another group that much to showcase your achievements? that shows you're not as secure in your confidence in the band's talent and success as you're claiming to be. I hope this has either been exaggerated or just is downright false. I like the guys, but they don't need to be assholes to another group, especially when, as they claim, they don't want or need their fans or management.
These lads are starting to piss me off now.
'We don't want their fans, they're too young.'
FUCKKK YOUUUUU. As if you don't have 5 year-old fans! Stupid dickhead.
to belittle another group that much to showcase your achievements? that shows you're not as secure in your confidence in the band's talent and success as you're claiming to be.
THIS THIS THIS.
Since when are they being compared to the Beatles!! Slow down buddy, i think your ego is starting to kick in there!! They have only become famous in the last couple of months, and he says they are being compared to the Beatles?? For some reason i find that funny! I actually like "The Wanted" but if they say things like this, they better be careful, it doesnt take long for the hatred to start! And not once have i heard anywhere someone saying they are like the Beatles.. maybe in his own mind when he was drunk, he heard that comparison, but come on, calm your tits their buddy! Big egos will get you nowhere fast! And the quicker you get fame, the easier it is to be taken away from you!
I mean, they are right, One Direction, Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez etc. do attract the teenage fnas more, but if they keep this up when they open up their mouths, they are going to have no fans at all!! They will be begging to have the teenage fans then!!
He seems egoistical and sort of obsessed with surpassing one direction. :S
I love The Wanted but I do agree that this interview makes them seem over confident and big heads, there actually not, if you watch all of the interviews they joke about being all that, but don't take themselves too seriously. And also if you watch this interview; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8T9djaXiP9Y you will see that they actually like one direction, obviously as the wanted are older they do not want to have a younger fan base which to me sounds completely fine as you don't really want girls aged 10 to be listening to songs such as Glad you came.
I actually like The Wanted, their music is great!! Of course, there is going to be a little competition between boy bands, thats the way it should be!! Instead of people comparing One Direction to Justin Bieber! I could never understand why they would try to compare a boy band with a single musical artist. I found that very strange and stupid!! Sorry, went off topic a little bit.. lol, I might like The Wanted's music, but they seem to have a bit of an ego problem going on right now! They need to be told by their manger to calm down, cause nobody likes people with big egos like that, and they will definitely not be taken seriously for their music if they keep this up!!
Alright, I love The Wanted, just like I love 1D. But seriously? I'm gatting pissed because of how they talk about 1D. They're talking as if they were babies, but Jay is the same age as Louis and Nathan is younger than all the One Driection boys, minus Harry.
And being compared to the Beatles? Seriously? Haven't heard that one yet. You guys are awesome, yes, but not that awesome yet.
Also, I find it pretty rude how they talk about girls as if they were objects. Jay has slept with more girls in the US in a month then in the UK for one year? Well, it's nice knowing you go to bed with anyone.
I'm really hoping this interview's fake or really exagerated. I don't want to think badly of you. . . cause if it's true. . .
awkward moment when people don't realise their responses are grossly exaggerated by the mag -_- these guys are anything but egotistical and rude and they dont have any thing against 1D :/.... when are these boys gonna get a category OU? they need it like now!!!! <3 TW > #TWFANMILY

yeah, I was wondering how old they were, seeing as the article said they weren't old enough to have a drink in the U.S., which would make them not too much older than the One Direction boys. they may seem older and sing about older stuff, but it's not that hard to figure out that money comes from obsession, which is usually found in teenage girls. and hey, money is money. it wouldn't matter if his six-figure car came from teenagers or adults; again, money is money.
lol, i think the little bit of fame they have gained is going to their heads a bit.
I really like the wanted but to keep going on about one direction in such a negative and condescending light just makes them seem big-headed and rude.
They should learn that the right way to gain success is to earn it and let their music speak for itself and not pushing people down to get where you want to go.
Come on, they have just one successful single and they're already comparing themselves to The Beatles, TO THE FREAKING BEATLES? Gosh. They're all a bunch of nerds anyway.
And: Jay: 'I slept with more girls in America in one month than I have for a whole year in the UK. The boys who are not single help me, they make way for me. And Americans' boobs are lovely. There are a lot of fake ones.'
Who do you think you are to speak like that? Do you think these exuberant girls will ever listen to you again after talking of them as objects?
Calm your tits and come back to the earth.
actually Jay is older than Louis :/ he turns 22 later this year ... Nathan is older than Harry, Liam AND Niall .. he turns 19 in a couple of weeks ..... add Max, Tom and Siva all turn 24 later this year .... Good job at making a point tho :/ .......... I wouldnt take offence mate, i'm just a rude person in general
drink it if you can
I had a lot of respect for them until I read this.
I still respect them as musicians, but don't really like them as people...whatsoever.
I love 1D, but I have nothing against The Wanted ..even after this interview. I mean they are who they are... What's wrong with that? They're music is still enjoyable to my ears! The difference is I that I love 1D musically and traditionally. No H8!!
They're immature. I'm not even talking about the one direction bit, I'm talking about the hooking up bit. No one wants to know how much sex their having!
They're immature. I'm not even talking about the one direction bit, I'm talking about the hooking up bit. No one wants to know how much sex their having!
--
That's the part that angered me most. They treat them like women are used for fun at their disposle? Pathetic!
Even though they have success in the US now, 1D has more fans. And most 1D fans are like 15,16 and older. It seems like fame got to their heads.
And just because they drink a lot and have a lot of sex doesn't mean your cool, pff..
And just because they drink a lot and have a lot of sex doesn't mean your cool, pff..

"We could drink One Direction under the table!"
Clearly they haven't met Louis...
*18 year old One Direction fan here* wow this is awkwarddddd. Nearly wetting myself from laughter.
1. 1D's fans are mainly between 14-25.
2. TW have only been known in America for a couple of months, your chart position means absolutely nothing if you can't get another hit and then another, they'll be a one hit wonder there if they fail that.
3.4000 fans turned up to see 1D at their signing. Only 200ish fans turned up for TW at an American radio station.
4. 1D have been in a strip club...so that makes that comment quite awkward.
5. TW have not been compared to The Beatles. So Max just put that comment up where the sun doesn't shine.
"compared to The Beatles" >> LMFAO
guys like that disgust me, talking about girls like theyre some achievement. ew so cocky when they don't even have much reason to be. I personally haven't even heard of them aside from on OU.
they talk so much about one direction that it makes them look insecure actually, talk about your own band and music if you love it that much... it makes them look kinda stupid. And "glad you came" is good, but it's like every other pop hit.
i dont know about this.. i love both bands really. but arent they just like two years older than the lads in one direction?? their trying to act like their massively older when their not. and one direction fans are a massive cluster of 15-24 year girls. ive hardly seen any lil girls taken intrest in them. bashing other bands success even in the slighest makes you look bad. im tired of them calling 1d young. 1d all all adults. 18-20..the wanted 18-23 yea?!
Did The Wanted forget that they're charting in America with their SECOND album, whilst One Direction is making moves with their DEBUT album. TW is officially making their way onto my bad side with their nonsense. Ugly bastards.
I absolutely love them, but why do they always mention 1D, how much they drink and how many girls they get with??? if it is about the music they should not be saying that same shit all the time! Come on guys, you are so much better than that!
One Direction rules the world
& not the wanted..
okay, I'm no where a fan of One Direction and find their songs and music just as shitty as bieber's, but, this just SCREAMS EGO-MANIAC
Wtf is wrong with them they are older than one direction and they should have more self respect than that like wtf hell taking the boys to a strip club Harry just turned 18 and the boys have a lot of freedom in what they do
Just lost all my respect for this group.
Okay seriously, wtf?? I love their music & I always thought they seemed like nice guys, but this interview makes them look like egotistic douchebags.
Putting down another band like that is unnecessary, especially one that 'isn't even a threat.'
Objectifying women isn't swag, cool, or something to boast about; it's wrong and disgusting.
& like it or not, they DO have teenage fans. Teens are like one of the biggest consumer groups & are essential to selling well. People like Lady Gaga and Rihanna are not targeted at teens, yet we make up a large chunk of their audience. To think they'll only have adult fans is just plain stupid.
hah he should wash his mouth before even mentioning The Beatles... nobody will remember this band in a couple of years.. so chill... if you want to remain in the music industry stop talking shit about others and start working in making good and memorable music... otherwise.. start saying goodbye to the "tons" of chicks you hook up with..
Honestly this doesnt't sound like The Wanted, I've been a fan from the start and if you look at other interviews they've had banter about 1D but never hated on them,or talked about girls like this. It's so easy for interviews to make things up tbh I just don't think they'd say all that stuff, if you look at other stuff you'd realise they aren't anything like this article makes them sound... just saying and i'm a fan of both bands!
wow.. The Wanted seem real classy!
Congrats band boys. You've just made American girls look extremely bad. Not all of us have those ghastly low standards. These self-called "players" find their hookups in clubs and around groupies. Ask a real American girl and you won't find fake tits or a fake personality on them. Sucks that other countries base their opinions on tiny little things, especially the sluts that they go for.
I wouldn't call myself a fan of 1D or The Wanted, but both of them come off as ego-maniacs sometimes, especially the Wanted in this interview.
The Wanted:) Amazing:)
Haters- It's past your bedtime.
Like they care what you think.
lol
their ego is so big.
how inmature
Really hoping this is a badly translated or exaggerated article because it seems like it is!! From what I've heard, and from when I met them, they're all lovely and this doesn't sound like them!! Especially not Jay and Nathan!! (:
1d is so much more successful than tw will EVER be. their fame is already through the roof and theyre just beginning. i haven't seen anyone get known that quickly, justib beiber included, and i dont even know who these conceited guys in tw are.
Okay, Im not sure of the wanted know this.... Almost every girl in my class likes the song Glad You came. I am in 8th grade ( which makes me thirteen) all i gotta say is that these people a egoistical and it`s gross. Im digusted with the Wanted. like really.
If you know anything about journalism you can tell this article was taken out of context. First of all the original article on People.co.uk is linked up top- go look at it. Second of all there is no way a journalist could've gotten such consecutive long quotes, let alone gotten them correct. Regardless of the fan war if you know anything about The Wanted you can tell they were kidding and being playful like they normally do in interviews- use media literacy people, seriously. If you aren't doing that then you obviously don't need to be making judgments about this article or any information you see about public figures in the media.
I'm 21...
Anyways, I like them but since when were people considering them the next Beatles? And it's great that they're doing successfully over here but do they really need to put down another British band to make themselves look better?
Also the whole bit about hooking uo with their fans is awful. They should have some respect for them not just use them all to sleep with. Then with the whole Spring Break thing with getting the fittest girls, thats disgusting.
lost all my respect for these guys.. like RELAX you have ONE hit single right now. I actually liked them until now.
what dicks. i'm 22 years old and CAN legally have a drink in america.
but.. -1 fan for you guys. bye.
Let us all just remember this is from PEOPLE magazine... not exactly quality stuff. It's most likely been exaggerated, like interviewers often do.
WOW! How disgusting can you be? I have never heard someone speak about women in such a disrespectful manner. And going after 1D and their fans? He wouldn't bother doing that if he didn't feel threatened. One Direction have far better personalities than these douschebags, better voices and better music. 1D is just breaking America now but they are already proving that they are going to be a huge success. Of course, One Direction has a lot more class than to brag about their success or belittle another band.
"Now we're being compared to The Beatles, which just takes the p*** most of us aren't even old enough to have a legal drink in America."
All except Nathan are old enough to have a legal drink in America. I don't believe much of what this article says because it doesn't seem believable that Tom would make such a false statement. How would he not know the ages of his own group members? Clearly the interviewer didn't understand what was really being said.
yeah GOOD JOB GUYS .... while all you kids were here crying about how you hate how egotistical rude and arrogant the wanted are and trying to be all "1D are better wah wah wah :(" none of you even fecking realised this interview has been completly twisted and is FALSE AND UNTRUE .... The Wanted just realised a statement on their twitter !!!! so why not pull your head outta your asses and stop freaking whining .. 1D fans are all just threatened by actual talent aka - these boys !!! --- think im being harsh ... well boo hoo I regret nothing
Love them so much!!!!
Max perfect man in da entire world!
I am neither fan of One Direction or "The Wanted" but...What the heck is wrong with the boys from the wanted? First of all, When you're in ANY business, you don't just act immature, showing off or being egomaniac person, you want them to know that you make good music,playing a good fight when it comes to competitions, and have respect. Second, Who the heck is the wanted? I dont even know them...(from reading this article, I dont ever wanna see or know about them)...All Im saying is that if they keep this up, Theyre not going to be successful in the music business.
Excuse me? Oh I'm sorry to disturb you but some of us think it's just wrong to say that...How can people look up to this jerks and say very egomaniac stuff about other people? And yes, well all know they're older then 1D but it seems to me that they're not acting their own age. I mean come on! only a 8 year old could say that!(And also, for your information, I am not a fan of one direction)I think I'm done here. You can go back from whining
Um, this is complete shit.
The Beatles > The Fucking "Wanted" any day of the week.
They think they have the right to go and diss One Direction while they sit here and talk about having sex with so many American girls. See where that gets you in life, buddy. A few STD's later and you won't want to be bragging about that anymore.
So many people love One Direction, and no one even knows who they are in America, so they can shut the fuck up. Years from now, when they're one of those "Bands Gone Bad" and One Direction is running this shit I'd like to get another interview.
WHY ARE THEY SO COCKY? THEIR VOICES ARE SO MUCH NICER. THEY SOUND LIKE WHISPERING BOYS. One Direction's voice is actually really powerful and exciting. Yours? I'm glad you came? Okay. Really? One Direction's song = a story. TW = Random shiz. So shut the hell up.
I love The Wanted, but telling 1D fans to stop hating, and then insulting 1D is stupid. Hypocrite.
I'm a 20 year old directioner, awks.
What they said about 1D didn't piss me off because I'm so used to the shit they say about 1D like every single day. Jealousy much?
What pissed me off the most is how they're talking about girls like they're sex objects.
Pathetic losers.
the wanted make american women sound stupid.
they think we're sluts. we have standards. yes there are some idiot women that'll just have sex with you just for your accents. but i bet they can't get a woman with an education out here. One Direction is amazing as well. and if you haven't notice they're doing GREAT in America. Their album is set to release on March 13th. Get ready for one direction's image every where you go in america. YOU WILL NEVER BE AS TALENTED AS THEM. And they know that as well, that's why they always bring them up. Why do you think Chelsea handler asked about simon cowell? oh cause she's knows about One Direction.
READ BEFORE COMMENTING
It's sad that people believe that they actually said these things. The interview is clearly exaggerated and most of it is just false and twisted. It says that Tom said "Now we're being compared to The Beatles, which just takes the p*** most of us aren't even old enough to have a legal drink in America." They are all of legal age to drink in America except Nathan. Why would Tom make such a statement when he knows the drinking age in America and he knows all of his group members' ages? It also states that only Max has a girlfriend. Once again, false. Siva and Tom also have girlfriends which just proves how reputable this article is. People need to stop believing everything they read and realize when words have been twisted or things have been taken out of context. The flow of the supposed quotes do not seem natural. It is very much so written to fit the journalist's vison for the article.
If they're the next Beatles then I'm the next Tupac.
It seems like people are trying to pit the two bands against each other and create a rivalry that doesn't exist. And people will stop at nothing to do so, even if it means completely twisting the words of some until there is very little truth in what has been reported. Stop trying to compare the two bands and just enjoy each for what they are.
This interview is bullshit, if you read the boys tweets you will understand how upset and angry they are. They've had their words twisted and also, if you read other interviews there not like that at all. They like 1D and have stated this in many interviews. So before you starting hating on them, THIS INTERVIEW IS A LOAD OF CRAP!!
This is bullshit and you all know it. The Wanted would never say this at all. This site is trying to start arguments, don't all be so gulliable.
lol @ anyone who honestly believes they said this
Wow. Exaggerated much? If anyone believes this bull than you need to know that these boys would never say anything like this. It doesn't even sound like anything they would say! So this blog needs to sit the jel down and stop shit stirring. These boy like One Direction and have nothing against them.
You should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves for writing this crap. I'm a fan of both TW and 1D and I know for a fact that there's nothin but love between these boys. I'm never turning to this website for anything ever again. I hope everybody realizes how cheap y'all are that you have to make up crap to put up a story to get people to actually read this.
I know theses lads so well, and there is no way on this planet they would say anything like that, not even tom, so go stick your false interview where the sun don't shine because to be honest it's is just going to make 1d fans hate us even more than they already do.
You guys this interview is COMPLETELY FAKE. the boys would never belittle someone else's fanbase. OceanUp does anything for a good story... please dont believe it 1D fans. x
OceanUp. fuck you
PEOPLE DON'T BE SO DUMB AND BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU READ! This ENTIRE interview is BULLSHIT! Just comes to show how DESPERATE this site is! 1D and TW are both really talented! Regurdless of who you like I know that if 1D had their words twisted like this you wouldn't want anybody to ACTUALLY BELIEVE IT! Come ON people!
This article is CRAP!
Nobody, I repeat, nobody knows the boys like we do, and they'd never say bullshit like this,so just to say,whoever does believe it, needs to re-read this, maybe look at their interviews, they're great guys, yesterday they met a young girl with a disability, and made her so happy, along with alittle girl around 5 years old, they love one direction, they love their fans, and they love what they're doing, they know their flaws, they constantly say they're useless, because she don't dance, etc, so maybe you should all stop for a minute, they know they have young fans, they have NEVER compared themselves to anyone in a big-headed manor, seriously, it's bullshit,I'm a fan of both one direction AND the wanted, I'm sick of rumors being strung together and idiots believing them.
Would everyone just calm down! They never said any of this stuff, ocean up just twisted their words, the boys would never say anything like this.. If you don't believe me check their latest tweets, ocean up just made this shit up!
This interview is clearly twisted! The wanted would never say that about another artist! The wanted wished one direction and JLS luck at the brits, did one direction NO!if you took the time to watch a couple of the wanted's videos you would know it wasn't true!
Shows how easily influenced 1D fans are. This is obviously exaggerated and not real. -.-"
This interview is clearly twisted! The wanted would never say that about another artist! The wanted wished one direction and JLS luck at the brits, did one direction wish the wanted luck? NO!if you took the time to watch a couple of the wanted's videos you would know it wasn't true.
And FYI 1D fans the wanted are so much more caring than one direction. And even if there was a hint of truth about the fan bit its because 95% of you are horrible. Do you see TW fans throwing stones at 1D fans? Because that's what some of your fans did to ours! Do you see TW fans camping out at one directions gigs and shouting 'we've done better in america than you' NO that's what 1Dfans did to TW but shouted 'we won the brit' and then have the cheek to meet them! Do you see one direction getting into twitter jail because they tweeted so many fans? NO so suck on that directioners
This is bullshit! The boys would never say this and you can't tell by the choice of words! There is an interview about the boys saying they should collab and do a charity single together and how they wanna go on tour with them. This website is trying to start something up between the fanbases. I'm not believing A word of this about our boys because I know they wouldn't say half this stuff. (I am a directioner as well as a TWFanmily member just so yous know)
I don't see why you have to change their words to make them sound bad. That's how rumours are started. You just made more people hate them and they didn't even say some of these things. You should be ashamed.
This blog post is mainly all lies. If anyone saw The Wanted tweeting earlier, which I suppose if you haven't, you should log onto their page "@thewantedmusic" because they are really upset about things like these. Blog posts that twist their words and make them seem egotistical and so not them. Go on. Go onto their twitter page now, and see what they've said. They've worked their butts off to get onto sites like this one, to get all the fame they deserve, and sites like this twist their words and make up all these lies about them. It really angers me, but hey, that's gossip guys. Don't believe everything you read.
you really shouldn't believe what it says lol its utter bullshit.
This is a load of crap... Im one of The Wanteds fans and i can tell you now none of its true... Jay isnt like that to say that he as slept with more Amican girls than British ones hes very shy, and One Direction fans we dont even care whether you have more fans so shut up saying that.
I'd just like to let everyone commenting hate about the wanted on this article shouldn't be because the whole article is a load of bullshit and whoever wrote it deserves to be sacked they completely twisted the boys words and made up aload of crap.
For gods sake if you knew what the lads are really like then you wouldnt be saying all this crap. Both bands have said time and time again they get on and they are only having a bit of banter. The press just twist their words and they appreciate ALL their fans. The Wanted have said on twitter that they never said that stuff, the interviews just twist their words and thats what the press are there for. The press want a controversial subject which will get people talking. Come on people dont believe everything you read! Both bands are great and even though im #twfanmily at heart I still think 1d are good. Ranting over!
Ohhh shit! This has made them look like complete dickheads! I love the wanted and one direction, but some of the stuff they were saying is out of order. "We don't want their fans, they're too young" well that's awkward because I'm a fan of you as well. Some of what they have said may have been added in to make them look like dicks, but what they were saying on twitter and 1D only having fans because of their looks is stupid as fuck. I don't get why everything has to be a competition in music nowadays.
This obviously isn't the truth because The Wanted would never dream of saying this because there too nice of lads. The only competitiveness is between the One Direction fans and The Wanted Fans because The Wanted Fans are obviously going to say that TW and better than 1D and the One Direction Fans are obviously going to say that there better than TW but there's no competitiveness between the bands, the only time I think that The Wanted and One Direction would get competitive is if there songs went head to head in the charts.
So there's no point in making the matter worse by saying stuff like 'Yeah right drink them under the table' just accept its not true because anyone would know that The Wanted would NEVER say this.
Woah guys, just stop a minute! Do you really believe everything that oceanup are saying? This article is a load of crap, even if they thought all this shit was true, they wouldn't say it would they? Who would a band want to jepadise what they have by slagging off another band? They wouldn't. If you read some of their tweets you'd realise this article is a load of crap.Max is engaged, Siva has had a girlfriend for over three years and Tom is in a stable relationship and had been for months. Nathan and Jay wouldn't objectify girls like that, they call all their fans "beautiful" and "gorgeous". They obviously aren't as big as the beatles, the majority of artists aren't and they know that! So just stop getting your knickers in a twist and calm the fuck down ok? Just answer me this question; when are people going to start liking to artists for their music and not who is doing better or who looks the best? It is okay to support more then one artist ok. #hatingwontdoit
Reading comments from 1D fans made me laugh, they are getting so worked up over a load of bullshit! To the ones saying "1D have more fans" and shit let me just say one thing. The wanted made their way into the music industry by working hard, it took them months to become even remotley recognised. 1D went on a popular tv show that is broadcasted practically everywhere and became a sucess over night. That's all I have to say.
This is the biggest load of bullshit! Our boys wouldn't say ANY of that. They adore One Direction as don't see it as 'beating' anyone in the US charts. the fact that this stupid shit blog decided they were going to publish the biggest load of shite is pathetic, and it was all for hit? THE WANTED ARE TE MOST AMAZING 5 BOYS EVER AND WOULD BEVER SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT OTHER BANDS. IT'S JUST NOT WHO THEY ARE.
Whoever wrote this is complete BULL the wanted would never say this, and them and 1D actually do get on, whoever wrote this disgusts me.
this is made up bullshit! Whoever believes this is silly to, 'our manager wont stop until he finds us the fittest girls' yeah because thats what martins there for? bullshit! do you honestly think they would swap number with everyfan and have a 'postive' outcome! Cant believe this, who honestly thinks people would say anything like that? they arent up themselves at all, the wanted are nothing like that! If you read their tweets it shows that this article has been twisted and they would never say anything like that. To everyone who reads this, it isnt true The wanted support 1D in anything+everything!
The Wanted are my world ,i really dont like care about anything any article in apaper a blog or a hater has to say...if you new the wanted you would no this is complete bollocks whoeva wrote this you should be sewed and sacked you have slanderd them its disgusting.
Get a life and look past it #twfanmily the boys need are support more than eva
Hayley xxxxx
The boys have confirmed on their twitter that articles like these have been blown way out of proportion...and to be perfectly honest if you even think this is something the boys would say in the first place, then you don't know the slightest thing about them. They have got to where they are today through sheer hard work and appreciate everyone. So don't bother hating on them cause the #TWfanmily have their backs!
This is not true.. They made this up the wanted boys NEVER said any of this and never will. I sure you don't follow them On twitter but of you did they actually said they love 1D. Please don't believe that the boys would say this and you can tell its a lie because it says most of them are to young to drink in America ONLY Nathan which is one member.. Filthy liars who make other people look bad:(
Lies, lies and more lies...
GUYS! Can I just say that most of this crap is completely fake. Yeah some of thr things mights have been said but not in that way, its all over the top and twisted. And if you are believing this, you obviously don't know the boys very well, there nothing like that. Their loyal to every single fan, and even if they did say that 1D had younger fans it wouldn't have meant to be offensive. People please. Don't believe everything you read.
People have to realise that bloggers like the person who wrote this have their opinion from the start and no matter what The Wanted said, they wouldn't change it. Clearly she set out to put them in a bad light and people are falling for it! There is no way they would say these things, especially not in that way, if they knew that it was going to be published. If you have any common sense at all, you'd already know this.
Guys, it's not even oceanup who wrote this. It was in People on Sunday...
people who believe the contents of this article needs to get their hands on a brain asap.
If you know anything about these boys, you'd know that their words have been twisted out of proportion. They don't say stuff like this. And, as proven by their tweets last night, they don't have a problem with One Direction or anyone in the industry. If you're a fan of The Wanted, you should know this.
This interview is f*cking fake and totally twisted, anyone who believes this is an idiot
Anyone who believes this shit is completely stupid, honestly. How can you not tell this is all fake?! Obviously been twisted.
ohh , watch out , we got some badass over here -.-
This interview is all fake! They haven't said that! The respect everyone and the really like One Direction!
what the hell is this. The wanted is nowhere near HOW YOU PORTRAYED THEM. They love their fans and this is just downright rude. But ya see, the best part about this all is NO THE WANTED FAN WILL BELIEVE SUCH FALSE ACCUSATIONS, RUDE. Because we love our boys, and will stand by them for as long as humanly possible. The wanted made their way up there and earned it. Yes, one direction and the wanted are two different bands. SO WHY ARE YOU ASSOCIATING THEM TOGETHER. These bands ARE different. But you obviously can't see that according to this article. Have some respect instead of causing rumors and making them seem bad. These five boys saved my life. Their music saved me. Now I don't know about you, but I know the wanted cares about their fans and wishes the best for them. Honestly, all im saying is give them some respect and don't point your already covered with gossip fingers.
Plus, the wanted wants what's best for all british bands, and that they did say. They respect them, they give them credit.
What rages me the most about this article is that people are dumb enough to believe that any of it is true! Any of you who are true TW fans would know that the lads are nothing like this - this article is complete bull and OceanUp should be ashamed to have published such nonsense.
1D fans need to get back in their cage and realise that gossip mags love nothing more than creating fan wars. TW love and respect all of their fans and other artists and i'm fed up of them constantly being portrayed in a bad light.
It is downright false. They would never belittle One Direction like that, their not cunts. This article is such bullshit. If you know anything about these boys, you'd know that their words have been twisted out of proportion. They don't say stuff like this. And, as proven by their tweets last night, they don't have a problem with One Direction or anyone in the industry.
Your just coursing TROUBLE!!! The Wanted are nothing like that go and look at there tweets. How do they think they feel right now getting hated on for something they haven't done. All you idiots believing this need to know the REAL facts before you read information on this STUPID WEBSITE who are coursing sh*t that isn't even true. To all you 1d fans the boys would never say that they are friends with the 1d so don't belevie everything they write. ALSO Tom and Siva have girlfriends so they wouldn't be players. STUPID LITTLE WEBSITE STOP CHANGING THEIR WORDS!!! Tw*ts.
1. this story is not true. 2. Glad You Came was not written by the boys, it's just a fun song. 3. you can't just criticize them on 1 song when you have not heard others. $ One direction do not write however deep it is in comparison to The Wanted who wrote Warzone, I''l be your Strength and more you can't find better n deeper songs than that.
Okay, every one seems to be reading this article and thinking every single word of it is the truth. Have yous never heard of 'Don't believe everything you read'?
If you have twitter, just take a look at each of the members last few tweets, and even the official group account. You will have see they have clearly said things such as 'we are proud of what ALL of the brits are doing worldwide atm and I'm not gonna let a quote that has been taken in the wrong way put a divide between any fanbases. We do this for MUSIC and the fans.' 'just 2 bad that we work hard 2 get representation on certain blogs & when they finally speak about us they do it with something that isnt us' and so on. You can see they are clearly bothered by this.
For everyone sitting here judging them based on this interview alone, how about taking a look at other interviews and stop believing everything you read.
And yes, I'm a 1D fan. But I also have alot of respect for The Wanted.
THIS STORY IS FAKE.
SERIOUSLY, DIRECTIONERS, YOU THINK THIS IS TRUE? Why do people always believe the press? And btw, The Wanted once told that 1D are like brothers for them..
And about the article.. the guys aren't like that.. they would never say stuff like that.
Just stop hating, or judging people on what kind of music they like.. All fanbases should just be kind to each other. HATING WON'T DO IT.
AND TO THE OCEAN UP PEOPLE:
YOU BETTER TAKE THIS FAKE SHIT OF THE SITE.
YOU FEEL BETTER BY PUTTING THE FANBASES AGAINST EACH OTHER?
STOP THIS SHIT -.-
Are you having a laugh?
That sounds nothing like The Wanted..
1) They don't talk like that...
2) I highly doubt Jay slept with a load of American girls.
3) Since when was 23 illegal to have a drink in America? Isn't it 21? Tom is 23, Max is 23, Siva is 23.
This Is All Lies You Stupid People!
And why are One Direction fans reading this anyway?...
Ok,This interview is complete and utter bullshit. The boys would never say ANYTHING against 1D,they love them infact..I really don't get why every single bloody interview or newspaper ends up saying The Wanted hate One Direction,cos they don't. And when it says,"We're mostly all players, apart from Max, who is going out with Michelle". Ermm excuse me,Siva has been going out with Nareesha for 4 years,so hes not a player,also Tom has been going out with Kelsey.And when Tom says,'most of us aren't even old enough to have a legal drink in America.'He would never say that,he knows its not true as all of them can drink except Nathan. The boys are so lovely and genuine they would NEVER say anything in this interview. This is total and utter bullshit,annoys me so much when newspapers/interview guys make things up,its not gunna get you anywhere.OK rant over.
WHAT THE HE'LL, WHAT A LIE! THE WANTED WOULD NEVER SAY THIS THEY LOVE THE ONE DIRECTION LADS AND THEY WILL ALWAYS BE HAPPY FOR THEM. nice just go and create more fandom drama that isn't needed. I LOVE BOTH ONE DIRECTION AND THE WANTED AND THE TW BOYS ARE NOTHING LIKE THIS. I understand that the media tweak things but fucking hell this is too far it's basically a fake interview. Dicks.
I wonder how many people who are judging them right now based on this interview have actually listened to all their songs. I also wonder how much they actually know about them.
Did you really believe this interview this them?Its bullshit they would never ever say things like that.Its all their words twisted.They love 1D.
If you look at The Wanted's twitter (Max and Nathan too) they've said that this interview is false. @thewantedmusic @nathanthewanted @maxthewanted
The guys themselves have said multiple times that this interview is false. If you check they're official twitter as well as Max and Nathan's twitter they have said that this was not true.
Well considering most of the information in his is wrong anyway, you can come to the conclusion that its all bullshit people to need to get their facts right next time, and ultimately get a life. I mean.. they don't even know how old they are..#utterbollocks
Lets set this straight... as you all know, none of this is true... 'We are all players apart from Max who has got Michelle' well they obviously havent done their homework because Tom and Siva are in relationships too! Do you really think Nathan would say anything like that? NO, Neither do I... i dont even know why you are all taking this heart, it is all bullshit, check @thewantedmusic on twitter and it explains everything, all their words have been twisted, to the person who wrote this interview, i hope you are proud of yourself for causing this much upset....
That isn't real. It's completely made up and you're all idiots if you think they would actually say something THAT low. It's probably a 1D interveiw but they twisted the words so it look like TW said it.
This interview is made up and/or twisted completely, and I think it should be removed. The Wanted have stated that it wasn't them in this interview, and if you read it, and then read ANY other interview by them, you will see that is not how they speak at all. Plus, you can see the lies in it. Max,Tom and Siva are 23, and Jay is 21. They can all drink in America legally, only Nathan, who's 18 can't. Also, this article says that only Max has a girlfriend. First of all, Max is engaged. Tom has a steady releationship and Siva's had a girlfriend for over 3 years. I know Jay and Nathan would not take advantage of girls like that, especially fans, as thry have said in interviews they wouldn't date a fan.
So, to end this annoyed quote, i think you should consider REMOVING THIS SHIT from your website.
This entire story is a load of rubbish! I can't believe people are stupid enough to believe it! TW'S words do get twister a lot but most of the things they've apparently said it this is lies! Non of this is true and I quite upset that 1D fans are so quick to believe it! What happened to 'don't believe everything you read.' TW have been made to seen big headed just recently and when you SEE the proper interviews they put themselves down more than anything!I seriously hope this site is going to take this down because it's stirring all sorts of shit between fan bases.
All of this is complete and utter BULLSHIT. The Wanted are friends with One Direction. YOU HEAR THAT? Friends. NO member of The Wanted even speaks like that, they're respectful people and they do care about their fans. So all you One Direction fans causing shit saying you've lost "all your respect for them"... Re-read this interview and WATCH an interview that they have PERSONALLY SAID before, you will realise that this interview is completely made up and irrelevant to any conversation whatsoever. They value and appreciate everything. This website has just tried to cause a fanwar, k. DON'T LET THEM START ARGUMENTS, it's JUST WHAT THEY WANT.

Omg anyone who believes this has clearly never heard of The Wanted. They're nothing like this. Lol wut. OceanUp, your lies entertain me.
Preach preach preach. This just pisses me off so much.
Anyone who knows anything about The Wanted will know they deffinitely did not say this. Something's up. If you've ever seen an interview with them you would know this is not how they talk at all and you would know how blown away they are by their success. So much so that it seems like they don't even believe it. This isn't them. Shame on you Ocean Up. Whatever you've done, fix it.
OKAY THIS IS FAKE! I LOVE THE WANTED AND ONE DIRECTION! AND I KNOW THE WANTED WOULD NEVER SAY THIS! IT'S THE PRESS THE MAKE THINGS UP CUS THEY DON'T HAVE A STORY!AND THE WANTED LIKE ONE DIRECTION!
You do all fucking realise this is all LIES !!! You're so quick to believe things it's pathetic The Wanted aren't like that they wouldn't say things like this !! Sites like these fucking disgust me they just make things up for money and they love stirring shit up ! They're little shit stirrers !
The Wanted are not like that at all, This is all lies !! Whoever wrote it should go get a fucking life instead of sitting at desk thinking of things to make up !!! It's made me so angry, The Wanted like One Direction !!
if anyone reading this actually believes a word of it then you're just plain stupid. it's so exagurated and clearly fake, and it's not even written well, a five year old could write a better article than this.
ARE YOU ALL THICK?! of course the wanted don't think that! this article is complete bullshit.
If anyone actually beleives this then they are so dumb. The Wanted are not like this and what they have said in the interview has been twisted to make them look like bad people. I have spoken to The Wanted and they are lovely
Dear all the people who have read this and judged 5 of the most incredible people on the planet, don't believe everything you read on the internet.
If you really know The Wanted boys you would know that Nathan doesn't even talk like that and Tom has never said anything about them being 'compared to The Beatles', oh and hang on, laughing my head off when 'apparently' Nathan included Siva as a player - BULL SHIT! - so chill the fuck out okay and stop hating on The Wanted for no reason at all, it's ridiculous. I recommend you to get your facts straight before you publish something like this. #hatingwontdoit
This interview is strongly exaggerated. The Wanted actually like 1D, they've said in interviews and all that shizz.As I TWFanmily member and a Directioner, I agree with what is being said about the whole fan age thing, on average, most of the 1D fans I know/have seen on twitter are younger then those of TW fans.
This interview is absolute bullshit. As if they'd say all of that. "We're mostly all players, apart from Max, who is going out with Michelle"...Whoever made this up obviously forgot about Siva's long term girlfriend Nareesha, and Tom's girlfriend Kelsey.
can i just say. Siva and Nareesha.
can i just say. Siva and Nareesha.
can i just say. Siva and Nareesha.
BULLSHIT. why post this stuff? it's horrible.
why are american gossip sites always stirring shit up?
I'd just like to point out that some of the things they say on Twitter are replies to hate to them, from One Direction fans
The Wanted have clearly stated on Twitter that this interview isn't real. Also, you can tell Nathan especially didn't say those things as it says "We're mostly all players, apart from Max, who is going out with Michelle", but Siva's in a long term relationship with his girlfriend Nareesha, and Tom's in a stable relationship with his girlfriend Kelsey
I will hate you forever for making these boys sound like pricks you have blown EVERYTHING out of proportion i have no words!!!!
This interview is completely made up, and The Wanted have confirmed that. Also, some of the facts there are completely false. For example, when 'Nathan' says "We're mostly all players, apart from Max, who is going out with Michelle". He wouldn't say that, as 2 of the other band members are in a relationship- one of them being long term. Just thought I'd clear that up to stop any negative opinions this may create about The Wanted

Not being funny guys, but considering how lovely TW are when you meet them, this has been grossly exaggerated. It's obvious that whoever got these comments have twisted them, as TW have all taken to Twitter to set the story straight. I like 1D and TW, but after seeing some Directioners reactions to this, I am not surprised that a lot of people can't stand them, as if the band are like the fans, many people will not want to know. At the end of the day, this has been extremely exaggerated and is unfair on Nathan, Jay, Tom, Max and Siva as it tries to show them in a bad light. They have gone from nothing to everything, whereas a band like 1D that are famous through The X Factor have been handed that fame on a plate. Ultimately, if you believe this, you will obviously believe anything.
