There is a new extended trailer for the E! reality show, The Wanted Life which follows British (and Irish!) boyband, The Wanted. The show will begin airing on June 2nd of this year and will follow these five guys who sure seem to get into a lot of shenanigans. But let’s face it, that’s part of their charm. E! might have made the series a little more dramatic, but that won’t stop most of us from watching it! Also, be sure to listen to their new single, “Walks Like Rihanna” here.
The Wanted have decided to release the fan version of the “I Found You” music video after fans have been begging for months. The video, which was originally shot in August of last year, was filmed in Los Angeles and featured many real-life fans. I may or may not be one of them. 
The video is quite awesome with a Beatlemania theme done in the style of the movie That Thing You Do. However, the ending is pretty classic and knowing these guys it is completely possible to have really happened. Enjoy the shenanigan filled video above, but be warned—there is extreme fangirling throughout. Oh, and did I mention that they look uh-MAZING?!?
American Music Awards After Party

This was a big night for The Wanted. They sang their newest single, “I Found You” live at the American Music Awards and killed it. They were also nominated in the “Favorite Band, Duo or Group” category, but lost out to Maroon 5. But even so, after that AMA performance there’s no doubt that everyone has their eyes on these guys now. In the usual fashion of award shows the guys hit up Continue Reading
After a long wait the music video for “I Found You” from The Wanted has been released. There’s three main observations on this for me. First, I love the song. I have been listening to it non-stop since it was first leaked on YouTube and can’t get enough of it. Second, and the most obvious is all the guys are looking real good. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to let you in on that one. Lastly, they are total bad asses in this video. I almost wish the fight scene could have lasted longer. If anyone said they could take on this boyband, they might want to think about that again.
I won’t ruin the whole “surprise” of the video, you can see that for yourself, but I did enjoy the twist with the female lead character. That was a nice little tease from Nathan. It was creative although I wouldn’t have expected this idea for this particular song, but I can’t complain. I would, however, like to know what happened to the footage filmed in LA that was supposed to be for this video. A completely different idea that must have gotten scrapped last minute, but it doesn’t hurt to throw it up as an unofficial video (hint, hint, guys). But for now, take a look at the official video above and be sure to buy the single on iTunes on November 4th.
[Edit: So, apparently the LA footage will be used for something else "just as big" according to Siva who told fans during a Twitcam session an hour before the video was released.]

The last time I went to Perez Hilton’s One Night in LA was in 2010 and it was a free show that he was able to get sponsored. This year he was charging for tickets with all proceeds going to VH1’s Save The Music Foundation. Definitely missing was a lot of the perks that were present in previous years (photo booths, popchips, etc). However, more acts were added to the lineup, so Continue Reading
2012 MTV2 Video Music Awards Pre-Party
Featuring: The Wanted, Walk The Moon and Tori Kelly

I attended this event in 2010 when they were still giving out the MTV VMA for LA’s Best Breakout Artist. From what I can tell they are no longer doing that. This year’s event was strictly a concert with some great acts.
The first artist to take the stage was Tori Kelly. I had never heard of her before this, but I’m sure Continue Reading
PopZineOnline.com was at the MTV2 VMA Pre-Party sponsored by Taco Bell at Avalon Hollywood on September 5, 2012. As always with The Wanted we are surrounded by the most dedicated and crazy fans ever. Enjoy the screaming, shaky camera (courtesy of the polite shoving to see the guys), but most of all enjoy every member of The Wanted get down to “Gangnam Style” by Korean artist, Psy.

At this point it’s highly unlikely that you haven’t heard of The Wanted. The British-Irish boy band released their hit single, “Glad You Came” to overwhelming success in the US. They have since followed up with their next single, “Chasing The Sun” which they announced will be featured in the upcoming Ice Age 4: Continental Drift movie. The band is building momentum and this EP is only going to further their fan base. Continue Reading
If there ever was a band that made every interview entertaining it would be The Wanted. The guys in this UK-based boy band hold nothing back and they are just themselves. I have watched plenty of their interviews and I can’t get enough. I look forward to the day I get to sit down and talk with them. Until then check out their AOL sessions that features a hilarious interview (see their latest craziest fan encounter), a live performance and photos from an exclusive photo shoot all right HERE.
Although the video has been out for almost a month, it still deserves to get its own post. Here’s the latest music video from the UK-based boy band, The Wanted for their single, “Chasing The Sun“. It’s directed by Director X who has directed music videos for many top artists in the industry including Justin Bieber’s “Boyfriend” music video. The cinematography and styling is very dark and edgy which fits with the band, but above all the song is the best part. Check it out for yourself up top.
