Whether it's James hating charlie's new band or Mattie deciding to tie the knot with his TV girlfriend, everyone's gossiping about the ex-Busted lads. If you want to hear what the boys are really up to - and the facts behind all the rumours, read on..

Matt
Before Busted, Matt appeared in Casualty and Eastenders and has said he'd consider acting again if the right role came up. But he's more likely to return to music. 'The fortnight after the split was a real struggle,' he said. 'I'm trying to work out what's best for me. Going solo is scary, but I'm definitely considering it.'

James
'It's 100% guaranteed I'll continue with music,' James revealed. And true to his word, he's now setting up auditions for a new band - and wants to poach Rich Simic, drummer from Indie band White Lies! He's also been invited to join The Location - a songwriting team who've written for Britney Spears.

Charlie
After parting ways with his bessie mates, Charlie has a new manager and is touring with Fightstar - but in tiny venues compared to the arena-filling days of Busted. 'It's a strange way of doing things, but I'm loving it,' he explained. And with £10,000 of his own cash going into the band, he's in it for the long run.

Fact or fiction?

Married Matt
Although one tabloid recently claimed Matt and MTV girl Emma Griffiths are engaged - we're told it's not true. Matt said, 'Emma's been a great support. We're just having a good time together.' Phew!
FICTION!

Bust Busted
Just a week after the split, the boys were sued. Ex-bandmate Owen Doyle claims he helped write four tracks on the first Busted album, so all royalties have been stopped until it's sorted out!
MAYBE!

Hate mates
Rumours are rife that James and Matt hate Fightstar's music. True? No way! 'His band kick ass,' Matt declared. 'I went to his first gig, his second, his third and his fourth.'
