The Wanted Get Bieber Fever!

EXCLUSIVE | Plus, Nathan tells us he's got the hots for JB's girlfriend...

The Wanted have exclusively told MTV.co.uk all about there upcoming stint supporting Justin Bieber on his South American tour, revealing they have a few unlikely surprises in store for the 17-year old star.

We caught up with the Glad You Came band ahead of their first show in Brazil with the Biebster to talk about all things Justin and of course, his girlfriend Selena Gomez.

When asked how they came to support JB, Max explained: "We went to watch Justin and then met him and his manager. After, we got a phone call asking what we were doing and they asked if we wanted to support him at London's O2, so we did."

"Then, Justin tweeted that we got his crowd going into a frenzy, so he invited us to join him on his South American tour."

Speaking of whether they have caught Bieber Fever yet, Max added: "I really like him, especially with all the pressure he's under and how young he is."

Siva agreed: "Me and Tom went to see his movie (Never Say Never) and it gives you a real insight into how crazy his life is."

Despite revealing their admiration for Justin, Nathan seemed more interested in Biebs' gal pal, Selena Gomez, lusting after the 19-year old, saying: "He's got a fit bird as well."

While Nathan sets his sights on Gomez, Max went on to tease that the boyband could have something special lined up for JB's tour, stating: "You know what, I think there might be a surprise by the end of it."

"I think we might get something that we are not expecting from it. You never know, I just think maybe something really good might come of it."

Tom then joked: "Yeah, we are gonna go on stage with him as belly dancers and sing Baby with him!"

Max also revealed that he's eager to show the Somebody To Love hitmaker the beautiful game of football…just as long as he doesn't call it soccer.

The 23-year old admitted: "Yeah, I've told him we will have a kick about and I will teach him a few tricks. I've not seen his skills yet but first of all, I will be teaching him not to call it soccer because I find that offensive and he’s good at basketball, so maybe he can show us some stuff."

The Wanted are gearing up to release new single, Lightning, on 16th October ahead of their second studio LP, Battleground, on 7th November.
