<P><a href="/news/articles/1677891/the-wanted-band-american-tour.jhtml">The Wanted landed on U.S. shores</a> last month for their first-ever tour here in America, and what ensued was Beatlemania-like fandom. On Wednesday night, the U.K. boy band wrapped up the trek in L.A., and fans (including the Beckham family) came out in full force when they took the stage at the El Rey. </p><div class="player-placeholder right" id="vid:732653" width="240" height="211"></div><p> The five Brits couldn't believe the enthusiasm felt by the crowd, <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/thewantedmusic" target="_blank">tweeting</a> that the excitement for them was "unbelievable." Even though the tour is over, the interest in the guys has hardly waned. Their song "Glad You Came" (from their 2011 album <i>Battleground</i>) will be <a href="/news/articles/1678650/glee-the-wanted-glad-you-came.jhtml">featured on "Glee"</a> this season and continues to climb the charts and gain radio play. The guys are prepared for all the attention: Touring with Justin Bieber has shown them what it's like to become an international pop sensation. So what kind of advice has the Biebs given them? "I think he's too humble for that, in that way. ... He's not someone that really gives advice, because I think he just appreciates what happens to him rather than thinks he's god," Max George told MTV News. "And so, I mean, we don't really talk music. When we speak to him, it's more we talk about football or basketball." Bandmate Jay McGuiness added: "I think he knows that we know how to do what we want to do in the same way that we could never tell him how to do what he does, 'cause he does it a lot better than we ever could." The Wanted will head back home to their native U.K. to kick off an arena tour that will run through March. They are also up for British Single at the Brit Awards this month for "Glad." <i>Have you been following the Wanted's burgeoning career? Let us know in the comments!</i></p>
