NEWSThe Wanted Impersonates 'NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys In Their New Music Video And It's Amazing
It's a rainy Wednesday morning here in NYC, but this Hump Day got way better when I came to work this morning and watched The Wanted's new music video. I interviewed the guys a few weeks ago at the E! Upfront about other boy bands, but I had no idea they were like, legit fans of their predecessors. Oh my god.
OK! Exclusive: The Wanted Dishes on Their Favorite Boy Bands
In their new video for "Walks Like Rihanna," Siva, Tom, Jay, Nathan and Max impersonate both 'NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys. The video starts off with a nod to 'NSYNC's "Bye Bye Bye," where they act as marionettes. Remember that music video? No 90's kid can forget 'em, so I really appreciated this, you guys.
Then, it finished off with a little bit of BSB's "I Want It That Way." The white outfits in the airport scene is engrained in my mind forever and I am obsessed with The Wanted's interpretation of it. Max even wears AJ's fedora! I can't tell if they're making fun of them or just impersonating, but either way it's basically amazing:
