Take two!

After debuting the official video for their latest single “I Found You,” The Wanted have released a second clip for the hit song in honor of their fans.

The fan-inspired video is quite a departure from the original version, which featured the fivesome — Max George, Nathan Sykes, Tom Parker, Jay McGuinness and Siva Kaneswaran — showing off their tough side as suave gangsters. The video’s explicit nature even warranted a parental advisory warning on YouTube.

But this time around, it’s nothing but good, clean fun as the boys channel — wait for it — The Beatles.

In the clip, The Wanted pay tribute tribute to one of pop culture’s historic moments: Paul, John, George and Ringo making their their first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964.

Nathan, Siva, Max, and Jay bring on the swoons as they rock out in front of hundreds of screaming teenyboppers. Excitement gets the best of the fans as they rush the stage, prompting the boys to make a quick getaway while the girls run after them.

“I Found You” is the first single off their upcoming album, Third Strike.

With the boy band revival in full force, The Wanted are prepping to release their second album this year, along with plans to kick-off their first world tour. (via MTV News)

“We are looking to do a huge world tour,” Parker told MTV News. “Go back to different countries we’ve visited this year. We are going to do South America, do a tour in the U.S., our arena tour in the U.K. and then we’ve got our album coming out as well. In fact, we might do two albums. We are talking about next year, so we are going to have a busy year, if not busier than this year.”

Looks like Lindsay Lohan is wanted once again.

The troubled starlet, 26, posted an Instagram pic of herself alongside The Wanted frontman Max George, further fueling rumors of a possible romance between the pair.

The reported couple first sparked the rumor mill after the British boy bander became embroiled in Lohan’s November drama; the Liz & Dick star had a nasty brawl with a fortune teller outside a New York City nightclub.

Since the incident, Lohan has hit the road with George and his bandmates several times, catching them perform at  z100′s Jingle Ball in December before attending two of their Philadelphia and Boston.

“I love that she can party nearly as hard as we can,” George told The Huffington Post. “I suppose we’re all good mates already, so I hope that lasts. She’s cool.”

Coming into the new year, Lohan has remained mum on their newfound relationship, but made headlines once again when George introduced her to his parents in the United Kingdom.

“Max invited her out to his parents’ house in Manchester while she was in the area,” a source told TMZ. “Lindsay happily made the visit early this week, and we’re told Lindsay had a great time, hanging out with the whole George clan for an entire day, and she felt very at home. Max was adamant about her meeting his family.”

Are you dreaming of a white Christmas with The Wanted? Well, today is your lucky day!

The “I Found You” crooners — Max George, Nathan Sykes, Tom Parker, Jay McGuiness and Siva Kaneswaran — got into the holiday spirit with an a cappella version of “White Christmas” for MTV. The British-Irish boy band may make club-ready hits, but that doesn’t mean they don’t know how to harmonize.

And if that doesn’t make you swoon, then perhaps scene-stealer Stormy the dog will do the trick. The golden retriever leaves the performance mid-way through the warbling, only to come back moments later — much to the guys’ excitement.

The Wanted got into the holiday spirit earlier this year, posing for Esquire magazine in a festive spread, complete with presents, tinsel and eating oversized gingerbread cookies.

After a successful year — their club hit “Glad You Came” cracked the Top 10 — The Wanted are currently enjoying a much-needed break. However, it won’t be long until the boys, who are signed to Scooter Braun’s Schoolboy Records, start working on their upcoming third album, which they hope to release in April.

“We are doing a lot more recording in January in the UK,” McGuiness recently told MTV News. “We are going to go to a house together and do some writing.”

But that’s not all. The guys are also planning a world tour to coincide with their area tour in the U.K.

“We are looking to do a huge world tour,” Parker said. “Go back to different countries we’ve visited this year. We are going to do South America, do a tour in the U.S., our arena tour in the U.K. and then we’ve got our album coming out as well, in fact, we might do two albums. We are talking about next year, so we are going to have a busy year, if not busier than this year.”

One day after partying with Max George at The Wanted’s Jingle Ball after party in New York City, Lindsay Lohan has given her Twitter fans plenty to talk about, thanks to a very suggestive photo.

“Missing something? @MaxTheWanted,” Lohan wrote on Twitter Saturday night, along with a snap of what appears to be George’s sweatshirt.

George, 24, has yet to respond to the Liz & Dick star’s message — on Twitter, anyway.

Lohan and George have been romantically linked together ever since the two were spotted at New York hotspot Avenue nightclub in late November. The actress made a different set of headlines that night, after allegedly punching a fellow patron in the face.

Earlier this week, Lohan has been touring with The Wanted, making stops at the band’s Jingle Ball shows in Philadelphia, Boston and New York. TMZ reports that Lohan has even been traveling with the guys on their tour bus, as a guest of George’s.

“I love that she can party nearly as hard as we can,” George told The Huffington Post last week.

“I suppose we’re all good mates already, so I hope that lasts. She’s cool.”

The Wanted headed back to London over the weekend, as the band is scheduled to play Capital FM’s Jingle Bell Ball 2012 on Sunday, along with Rita Ora, Pink and Girls Aloud.

Are they or aren’t they?

Just one day after hitting the road with The Wanted for their Jingle Ball performance in Boston, Mass., Lindsay Lohan was spotted heading to the group’s after party following the Z100 Jingle Ball show in New York on Friday.

Hiding behind a fedora and donning an all-access pass, the 26-year-old actress was surrounded by a swarm of security, paparazzi and fans, as she made her way inside the bash.

Also in the scrum: The Wanted’s Max George.

Friday’s sighting is the latest in a string of appearances Lohan has made at The Wanted’s east coast shows.

Earlier in the week, the Liz & Dick star was spotted hanging out backstage with the group at the Jingle Ball concert in Philadelphia, Pa.

According to TMZ, Lohan has been traveling with the group on their tour bus, as a guest of George’s.

Lohan and George first made headlines in the wee hours of Nov. 30, following The Wanted’s opening gig for Justin Bieber’s Believe stopover at Madison Square Garden. The actress and the band headed to Avenue nightclub, where Lohan allegedly punched a fellow patron in the face.

Lohan was later charged with third-degree assault misdemeanor.

“We were just out and there was a bit of trouble with someone in the club. But it got blown out of proportion to be honest,” George told KISS FM’s Jo Jo Wright last week.

The 24-year-old singer also denied reports that Lohan’s altercation with psychic Tiffany Ava Mitchell was over him.

“I didn’t instigate anything. It was nothing to do with me.”

The Wanted is scheduled to play in London for Capital FM’s Jingle Bell Ball concert, along with Pink, Rita Ora and Calvin Harris.

Deck the halls with… The Wanted?

The “I Found You” crooners — Max George, Nathan Sykes, Tom Parker, Jay McGuiness and Siva Kaneswaran — posed for Esquire in Yuletide sweaters and other various Christmas garb. From wrapping themselves in tinsel and garland to eating oversized gingerbread cookies, The Wanted are certainly getting into the holiday spirit.

Not to mention it looks like George, 24, is trying his best to get on Santa’s good side after finding himself at the center of a brawl between troubled starlet Lindsay Lohan and Florida psychic, Tiffany Eve Mitchell last week.

George reportedly partied with the Hollywood bad girl just before she was arrested for assault on Thursday. Later that night, his bandmate McGuiness wore a “Free Lindsay” shirt during The Wanted’s opening set at Madison Square Garden.

“She’s cool. She was a top girl — she’s, you know, good fun,” George told KISS FM’s JoJo Wright on Friday. “We were just out and there was a bit of trouble with someone in the club. But it got blown out of proportion, to be honest.”

During his chat with Wright on Friday, George shot down reports that Lohan’s altercation was over him.

“It wasn’t me. I didn’t instigate anything,” he said. “It was nothing to do with me.”

Max George, front man of The Wanted, has come forward to comment on the Lindsay Lohan debacle.

“She’s cool. She was a top girl, she’s you know, good fun,” the 24-year-old told KISS FM’s JoJo Wright on Friday.

“We were just out and there was a bit of trouble with someone in the club. But it got blown out of proportion to be honest.”

In the wee hours of Thursday, Lohan, 26, was hanging out with the guys from The Wanted at New York City hot spot Avenue when she allegedly punched Tiffany Eve Mitchell in the face. The Liz & Dick star was arrested and charged with a third-degree misdemeanor assault.

During his chat with Wright on Friday, George shot down reports that Lohan’s altercation was over him.

“It wasn’t me. I didn’t instigate anything. It was nothing to do with me.”

As for those dating rumors?

“No, no. But she’s a nice girl though,” the British singer said.

Don’t get between a girl and her man!

Lindsay Lohan punched a woman in the face at New York nightclub Avenue Wednesday over Max George from The Wanted.

The hunky boy bander was reportedly turned off by the fact that Lohan was sloppily drunk outside of the club, according to TMZ.

Lohan was in attendance for The Wanted’s concert at Madison Square Garden earlier in the evening, when the band opened for singing sensation Justin Bieber.

Sources at TMZ say that Lohan tried to get backstage to meet the Wanted singer but was blocked and later met up with him and friends at a hotel bar.

As the night went on, Lohan preceded to get more and more inebriated, which evidently turned George off.

The Liz & Dick star caught George talking to another woman and was so enraged that she began the physical fight.

George tweeted early on Thursday “eventful night!!” — obviously alluding to the Lohan girl fight drama.

And the war wages on between One Direction and The Wanted.

The two British boy bands are showing no signs of reconciliation 1D’s Zayn Malik called The Wanted’s Max George several names — including “geek,” “clown” and “chlamydia boy” — on Twitter this past weekend. The Wanted singer told Radio 955 on Tuesday, “I’m not sure what his problem is, to be honest.” 

“It started off that I thought we were just having a bit of banter, but he seemed to get a bit serious,” he added.

The Twitter feud eventually escalated into George asking Malik to talk to him face-to-face instead of being surrounded by his security guards the next time they meet in New York City.

“Tell me you’re problems without the 8 security in NYC.. The only problem I have with you is the s**t banter. Grow up son,” he tweeted. 

Malik appeared to be delighted by the prospect of talking — or perhaps fighting — with George in New York next week, tweeting: “I’d f**king love to, see you in New York big man ha u clown.”

However, George says he never intended to fight with Malik., insisting he just wants to sort things out between the two bands.

“I tried to palm it off as being friendly again, but you can only take so many insults and eventually I just said, ‘Alright listen, if you’ve got a problem, come and see me in New York when we’re there doing a gig together and we’ll sort it out,’” he said.

His bandmate Jay McGuinness,  meanwhile, insisted Malik’s allegations of George having a sexually transmitted infection are  false. “It’s like when kids in the playground go ‘Poo Breath!’ Rarely has that kid actually eaten feces. I think he was just taking a stab in the dark.”

Of course, George took one more opportunity to throw a dig at his younger rival. “I think he’s probably just finished Sex Ed so he’s like, ‘Yeah whooo!’”

Talk about battle of the bands.

One Direction and The Wanted engaged in an all-out Twitter war earlier this week. On Tuesday, One Direction crooner Zayn Malik called The Wanted’s Max George a “geek” — and he was less than happy with that particular hashtag.

It all started when George tweeted a photo with “Gangnam Style” singer Psy. “Me and Psy getting messy #geekandproud,” he tweeted. However, Malik’s reply was less than complimentary.

“The first step is acceptance #geekoftheweek,” he tweeted. He then added, “Your display just shows how much of a wannabe you are :).” That’s when things got ugly. (Note: All of the tweets have since been deleted, but screengrabs of the exchange can be found here.)

George fired back with, “That’s not very nice. I was just starting to like you and your RnB hits.” The Wanted’s  Tom Parker then added, “I think ’1 stripes’ got his knickers in a twist bro,” referring to the signature blonde streak in Malik’s hair.

Malik fired back at Parker, tweeting, “Mate if I had a face like yours my hair would be the last thing I’d worry about :).” Parker then tweeted a photo of Malik with the message, “Bradford Bad Boi,” referring to Malik’s hometown in the U.K.

That’s when One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson entered the Twitter beef, telling Parker, “Pipe down bad boy.”

Malik later responded to George and Parker. “Let’s not even start discussing vocal ability boys ;) would love to chat gotta run though rehearsals.” And George replied, “Enjoy rehearsals. Stay off the bud… It clearly makes u cranky.”

This isn’t the first time the two boy bands have gotten into a war of words with each other. George recently told MTV he was confused by Tomlinson‘s recent harsh remarks toward the rival boy band. The One Direction singer told the UK’s Now magazine, “If you want to create rivalry, then let’s do it.”

Tomlinson went on to tell the magazine when he first heard The Wanted’s single, “All Time Low,” in the UK, he thought it was a “great song by a great band.” However, once The Wanted hit it big in the U.S. with “Glad You Came,” things started to change among the two British pop bands, he said. And the wounds are still fresh for Tomlinson.

“It changed all of a sudden,” Tomlinson added. “There was one press story where they were bad-mouthing us. I thought maybe that had been twisted. But then there ended up being about 10 stories and they’ve been caught on camera doing little things.”

But The Wanted argue it’s Tomlinson who’s making a big deal out of nothing. “It seems to us at the moment that the only time we talk about One Direction is getting asked about comments they’ve made,” The Wanted’s Nathan Sykes told MTV.

George then added: “That’s true actually. It’s quite boring now. To be fair, it’s Louis, though. It doesn’t seem to be any of the others… Louis seems to be the one who has a lot to say, for some reason. I don’t know what it is.”

Before ending the conversation, however, George took one final dig at Tomlinson. “Maybe he fancies one of us or something?”

That comment obviously didn’t go over well with Tomlinson and his bandmates. It seems like these two boy bands aren’t going to resolve their issues anytime soon.

Are The Wanted jealous of One Direction’s millions?

The Wanted’s Jay McGuiness recently opened up about the band’s fortune — or lack thereof — with British personality Alan Carr. “We met our accountant the other day,” he said. “It was so depressing. It took him two hours to say: ‘Boys, you’re skint.’”

Meanwhile, One Direction has reportedly pocketed more than $160 million since their X Factor days two years ago. But The Wanted, who are managed by Justin Bieber mastermind Scooter Braun, seem to be putting their jealousy aside. In fact, Nathan Sykes told Carr, “We’re jumping on the bandwagon.”

The boy band was also eager to downplay their feud with the younger group. “It is hardly Blur vs. Oasis,” bandmate Tom Parker joked.

“I don’t think they have anything to be upset about, they are absolutely smashing it,” Max George added. Parker seemed to agree: “They are the biggest band in the world,” he said.

Then again, George was singing a different tune with MTV. The singer said he was confused by Louis Tomlinson‘s recent harsh remarks toward the rival boy band. The One Direction singer told the UK’s Now magazine, “If you want to create rivalry, then let’s do it.”

Tomlinson went on to tell the magazine when he first heard The Wanted’s single, “All Time Low,” in the UK, he thought it was a “great song by a great band.” However, once The Wanted hit it big in the U.S. with “Glad You Came,” things started to change among the two British pop bands, he said.

But The Wanted argue it’s Tomlinson who’s making a big deal out of nothing. “It seems to us at the moment that the only time we talk about One Direction is getting asked about comments they’ve made,” Sykes told MTV.

George then added: “That’s true actually. It’s quite boring now. To be fair, it’s Louis, though. It doesn’t seem to be any of the others… Louis seems to be the one who has a lot to say, for some reason. I don’t know what it is.”

Before ending the conversation, however, George took one final dig at Tomlinson. “Maybe he fancies one of us or something?”

Ouch. It doesn’t look like this boy band feud is going to resolve itself anytime soon.

The Wanted may not be as popular as One Direction (yet), but while the lads of 1D live while they’re young, their older counterparts are serving up swag in the music video for their latest single “I Found You.”

Perhaps inspired by Lupin the Third, the video has the makings of a classic caper: beautiful girls, dapper attire, fist fights and stolen diamonds. Just when you think the story is going in one direction — the guys are obviously saving the damsel in distress, right? — the boy band delivers a shock ending, proving once again why they’re pop music’s newest bad boys.

Watch the video for “I Found You” above.

“I Found You,” which was written and produced by Steve Mac (the same man behind their global smash “Glad You Came“), sounds like nothing else on the radio — and that’s a good thing.

The track aims to capitalize on its predecessor’s success, and while the two songs share certain similarities, “I Found You” pushes the boy band boundaries.

Nathan Sykes arguably steals the track from his bandmates in the bridge, as he soulfully wails, “I said, people / We’re all looking for love tonight / But sometimes we can’t see it / We run by and find the love.” And for easily excitable fangirls, this means more camera time — and make out time — for Sykes, 18, and the mysterious blonde music video vixen.

“I Found You,” the lead track off The Wanted’s forthcoming album, officially drops in November. Head over to Direct Lyrics for the song’s full lyrics.

Watch the video for the single above. Listen to The Wanted sing their hit, “Chasing the Sun,” below.

It looks like the boys of The Wanted are finally answering the age-old question: Boxers or briefs?

In a recent photo shoot with We Love Pop magazine, The Wanted strip down to their undergarments, making teenage girls everywhere swoon.

Your “universe will never be the same” after looking at this picture.

Hunky Max George keeps thing classic in a pair of tight, black briefs, while funny man Jay McGuiness makes a statement in a cartoonish briefs. As for Nathan Sykes, the youngest member of the man band opts for a simple pair of blue and white briefs.

Tom Parker stands out as the only one in The Wanted to choose baggy boxers, while Siva Kaneswaran looks like he’s posing for Calvin Klein in his skin-tight white briefs.

When they’re not passing the time in their underwear, The Wanted are hard at work recording their new album. The band has released its new single “I Found You,” which was written and produced by Steve Mac – the same man behind their global smash “Glad You Came.”

The Wanted may not have walked away with a Moonman at Thursday night’s MTV Video Music Awards, but that’s not stopping the UK boy band from trying to score one at next year’s ceremony.

The band has released its new single “I Found You,” which was written and produced by Steve Mac – the same man behind their global smash “Glad You Came.” While the dance-heavy track shares some similarities with its predecessor, it ultimately sounds like nothing else on the radio.

Holy falsettos, boys! 

Nathan Sykes, the youngest member of The Wanted, arguably steals the track in the bridge, as he soulfully croons, “I said, people / We’re all looking for love tonight / But sometimes we can’t see it / We run by and find the love.”

It’s almost as if Sykes is saying, “Let’s see you try to do that, Harry Styles.”
