'[Britney's] bouncers came down with her and told us to face the wall,' says Siva Kaneswaran.

<P>If you're having trouble keeping the latest wave of British boy bands straight, just remember this one simple trick: <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/wanted_2_/artist.jhtml">The Wanted</a> are the ones who talk tons of smack. </P><P> </P><P>After tearing into <a href="/news/articles/1684009/the-wanted-christina-aguilera.jhtml">"The Voice" coach</a>
 <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/aguilera_christina/artist.jhtml ">Christina Aguilera</a> by calling her a "total bitch" last week, and then <a href="/news/articles/1684084/the-wanted-christina-aguilera-apology.jhtml">kind of apologizing</a>
, the boys turned their verbal cannons on another ex-Mouseketeer. </P><P> </P><P><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:762692/cp~vid%3D762692%26uri%3Dmgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.com%3A762692" width="460" height="260" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed> </P><P> </P><P>Sitting down for <a href="http://fresh1027.radio.com/2012/04/30/britney-spears-puts-the-wanted-in-the-corner/" target="_blank">another radio interview</a> in New York on Monday (their people should really consider keeping the boys off N.Y. radio, just sayin'), the lads opened up about a rather unpleasant interaction with Britney Spears' security team in November. </P><P> </P><P>They said they were personally invited to open Brit's show in Manchester and by all accounts the hook-up went swimmingly, with a cute photo op and a <a href="https://twitter.com/?tw_e=screenname&tw_i=131681568166129664&tw_p=tweetembed#!/britneyspears" target="_blank">follow-up tweet</a> from Spears in which she wrote, "So the boys from @thewantedmusic came to my Wembley show & we hung out backstage! Love them!" </P><P> </P><P>But member Tom Parker revealed that, "We signed a confidentiality thing that we should never say anything about what happened, but let's tell it anyway." That prompted Siva Kaneswaran to open up the legal Pandora's box and spill, "I was in the hallway with me tour manager. Basically we were looking with a laptop, trying to get WiFi ... facing the middle of the hallway. [Britney's] bouncers came down with her and told us to face the wall." </P><P> </P><P>"As Miss Spears is walking through," added Parker. "We're like come on!" But, since they are nice boys, Kaneswaran said, "We turned around and I faced a wall for about 10 seconds until she got really far away." </P><P> </P><P>They didn't wait long to walk this one back a bit, though. Jay McGuiness quickly followed-up with another patented Wanted semi-apology, explaining, "But honestly when we actually met her person to person, she was so down to earth. You can tell she's a total Southern girl and Nathan [Sykes], when he was a kid, won a singing competition. She was one of the judges or something. And she gave him a kiss, it was one of his first kisses as a kid. So he got to meet her again and support her." </P><P> </P><P>Last week, when MTV News' Sway spoke to the boys they were in a similarly feisty mood, with Parker claiming that Justin Bieber had smacked Kaneswaran in his crown jewels when they performed with "Boyfriend" singer. "He [Kaneswaran] came up to me in the dressing room and said, 'Why's he picking on me?'" Parker joked. </P><P> </P><P>As for Spears, at the time, Sykes said, "She's lovely as well. We haven't really met people who aren't very nice and Britney was just very, very nice. She was kind of what you'd expect her to be, very happy and American." And, Parker said, even though her bodyguards were kind of scary, Britney, he said, had "lovely teeth." </P><P> </P><P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/photos/?fid=1617615"><img src="http://www.mtv.com/news/photos/s/spotted/banner/spotted.jpg"></a></p>
