The Wanted: "We inspired a whole generation of new boybands"

The Wanted believe they have started a "whole generation" of new boybands who sing instead of dance.

The pop music scene often places a large emphasis on choreography but it seems like The Wanted would rather stretch their vocal cords instead of their legs.

Speaking to OK! magazine, band member Tom Parker revealed that he believes their style of boyband is catching on around the world. He said:

"What I'm proud of is that I feel like we started this whole generation of new boybands not dancing. We were the first one there. We're the coolest boyband around."

Bandmate Jay McGuiness added: "I think everyone saw us and though, that's the blueprint, we'll tidy it up a bit and then we'll make a lot of money."
