The Wanted to collaborate with Justin Bieber

The Wanted are preparing to head into the studio for a collaboration with Justin Bieber after signing up with the Baby singer's manager.

The British Glad You Came hitmakers are delighted Scooter Braun agreed to guide them after he discovered the teen idol, and now they are set for high-profile tracks with Bieber and Chris Brown.

Singer Jay McGuiness tells Scotland's Daily Record newspaper, "Hopefully with Scooter now as our manager things will really take off. He bends over backwards for us.

"We are quite messy characters and although we are still messy, he is making us presentable to America. He's hooking us up with Chris Brown and Justin Bieber. We're planning to tour with Justin. We have started writing in the last few months and some stuff there is Justin-worthy."
