5 Seconds Of Summer have come a long way in a short space of time.

While you wait, check out what the boys had to say about fans, dating, dating fans and Ariana Grande in our exclusive interview below... 

MTV UK: What kind of gifts do you get from your fans?
Luke: Most of my T-shirts come from fans.
Ashton: They've got good fashion sense! We always get a random few pizzas delivered to the house every now and then too.
Calum: They feed us, they clothe us; it's like having lots of people taking care of you.

MTV UK: What's the craziest thing your fans have ever done for you?

Ashton: We were playing at this house in LA and some fans found out where we were staying. They sent male strippers to the house.
Calum: We thought someone was trying to break into our house!
Michael: They rocked up to the front door and one of them was trying to peer in with a light.
Ashton: Then we looked closer and he was wearing really tiny pants…
Luke: He was very buff.
Michael: We also used to have a plastic dog named Ketchup in that house and as soon as we left the fans broke into the house and stole the dog.

MTV UK: Have you ever had any negative fan experiences?
Calum: Only when people chasing us almost get hit by cars and stuff like that. It can get quite intense and we never want anyone to get hurt.

MTV UK: Would any of you date a fan or would that be weird?
Ashton: It wouldn't be weird at all. They're normal people.
Luke: Yeah, fans are just people who happen to like our music.
Ashton: It's a bonus if your girlfriend likes your music, definitely not a downfall.

MTV UK: Would you date a girl who didn't like your music?
Calum: That'd be hard…
Michael: Only if they had a proper reason.
Calum: Yeah they'd have to have a really good reason for not liking it!
Ashton: It would be a bit awkward to be with a girlfriend who didn't love what you do.
Michael: I don't think anyone wants to date us anyway. Girls don't really like us.
Ashton: If you're into death metal that's a good reason not to like our music.
Luke: Nah, like if they understand what we do, but if it's just not they're vibe… that might be okay. I'd be a bit upset, but I'd get over it.

MTV UK: Which celebrity ladies do you think look good at the moment?
Ashton: I'm a big fan of rocky girls. I love Hayley Williams and the lead singer from Tonight Alive. She's really cool.
Calum: I'm a big Oprah Winfrey fan.
Luke: Ellen DeGeneres. I think she's wonderful.
Michael: She's funny. I don't know. I just like so many people.
Ashton: Pixie Lott's hot.
Michael: Pixie Lott is hot. Ariana Grande. There are a lot of hot people. Everyone's perfect.
