The Wanted star Max George has admitted that he often struggles to control his emotions.

The singer evokes something of a tough guy persona with his shaved head and a place in laddish boyband The Wanted.

However, it seems that he is actually a bit of a cry baby when it comes to emotional situations. George told the Daily Star:

"I cried like a baby when we had our first No. 1 single. I also cry when I watch nature programmes."

He continued: "I just can't help myself. I can't control what happens to me."

George meanwhile yesterday (January 24) rubbished a report from the same newspaper that he used to dress up as the Spice Girls.

A source apparently told the Star that he loved the 90s pop group so much that he had all their merchandise - even their bed covers.
