Looking for a new boy band to stalk obsess over? Well, good thing you came to Teen.com! We’d like to introduce you to Max George, Jay McGuiness, Siva Kaneswaran, Tom Parker, and Nathan Sykes from The Wanted. You may be hearing about them for the first time, but they’ve already done a bunch of awesome things such as spend New Years with Rihanna in Barbados and perform with Justin Bieber and Britney Spears! Maybe they’ll team up with the boys from One Direction seeing as they’re both from England, too! Wishful thinking. Anyway, here’s 10 things you need to know about these about-to-be-huge cuties…

1. Four of the guys are from England and one is from Ireland. Which basically means they’re hot, and they have amazing accents. Sold.

3. Siva started out modeling and grew up in Ireland with his twin brother and six other siblings. He is half Sri Lankan and half Irish! Now if we can just find those modeling pics…

4. Jay, who also has a twin, went to the Charlton Hamilton School of Dance at the age of 13 and was bullied for taking such an interest in tap dancing. Now? He’s topped the music charts, traveled around the world, and sold out a tour. Take that, haters.

5. Tom tried out for The X Factor but didn't get past the first round. This leaves us wondering why. He’s obviously a talented singer! And totally cute to boot.
