The Wanted singer Tom Parker has expressed his dismay at not being nominated for this year's MTV Europe Music Awards.

The ceremony is due to take place on November 11 in Frankfurt but the group were left empty handed when it came to nominations.

The likes of Rihanna and Taylor Swift instead were put up for numerous awards, with fellow UK based boyband One Direction landing three nominations.

Taking to Twitter yesterday (September 18), Tom Parker said:

"I think it's bullsh*t that we weren't nominated for an EMA this year!!! @mtvema."

He concluded: "Maybe next year x."

The Wanted were nominated for the Best Newcomer category at this year's MTV VMAs in early September but were ultimately trumped by One Direction.
