The Vamps insist there is no rivalry with 5 Seconds of Summer

The Vamps have stated that they have no rivalry with 5 Seconds of Summer.

The two groups are emerging in the pop-rock scene, with the latter hitting No.1 this week with their debut single 'She Looks So Perfect'.

However, Vamps singer Brad Simpson told the Daily Star that they would be full of cheer - not jealousy - if they met up the Australian group. He said:

"We haven’t met the 5 Seconds guys, but I’m sure we’d get on. We’re both doing the same thing, so it would be good to have a drink.

"There’s common ground and the music is good, so there’s no rivalry on our part. They’re doing the pop-punk thing and we’ve even written songs in that vein because we’re fans of that stuff.”

The Vamps have yet to reach No.1 in the UK, with their two singles 'Can We Dance' and 'Wild Heart' both reaching No.2.
