THE boyband threw a series of
wild house parties, broke pretty much everything in sight and ruined the decor
in the £30,0000-a-month mansion they rented in LA.
IF you rent an LA mansion to a
boyband for a couple of months, you should probably expect a few breakages
along the way.
But The Wanted trashed their
Hollywood pad so completely the owners fined them £10,000.
The Walks Like Rihanna boys
threw a series of raucous house parties and broke pretty much everything in
sight, ruined the decor then didn’t tidy up for the whole three months.
Back in March, the lads rented
a £30,000-a-month, seven-bedroom mansion in the hills, complete with a swimming
pool with bar, plus 10 acres of land with a mini moat. (“It had really nice
grass,” confirms Siva Kaneswaran. Thanks, Siva.)
Their antics were captured on
camera for a reality show which premieres on E! on Monday.
The Jacuzzi had to be
completely drained, because – by the Brit-Irish band’s own admission – it
became a “petri dish for bacteria”.
Somehow they managed to pull
tiles off the wall, too. “They did charge us up the wall for messing up the
tiles,” explains Siva, 22.
“They had to drain the Jacuzzi
– completely drain it,” adds Nathan Sykes, 20.
“And there was a rim of scum
along the top of the water on the leather interiors,” continues Siva. “When
they emptied it out, the stain didn’t come out, so they charged us for that. It
was £10,000 in total.”
The boys were also disappointed
that show bosses did not appreciate their genius suggestion of a title for the
series: The Wanted on E!.
“There was a knee-jerk panic
reaction. Middle America would hate it,” says Jay McGuiness, 22. “Don’t you
love The Wanted on E!? Everybody loves ‘The Wanted on E!’”
True, that would probably make
great telly but funnily enough those E! bosses went for The Wanted Life
instead.
And there’s plenty of sordid
shenanigans on offer, including a clip featuring a visitor to Max George’s
bedroom one evening.
The lady is clearly having a
scream with Michelle Keegan’s former fiance.
“We did impressions of her,”
says Jay. “‘Oof!’ She signed a release form, too, so her parents are gonna see
that.”
Yeah, keepin’ it classy, guys.
