QPR footballer Anton Ferdinand has revealed that he was in the "original" JLS back in the days.

Ferdinand, who is the brother of Manchester Utd and England defender Rio, told The Sun that he and his friend Marvin Humes used to sing together when they were kids.

They even performed at talent shows together and at other people's houses too. He said:

"We were the original JLS. We used to sing a lot together when we were younger and do talent competitions. We had a group of friends that used to go round each other's houses and sing."

And he left the door open for a sensational collaboration at some point in the future. He added:

"I'd definitely like to think about a collaboration with them in the future."
