Good manners, posh parents and clean pants?! So much for being the bad boys of pop, Busted - you've been well and truly, er, busted!
We wanna know about the private Busted. Have you met each other's families?
Charlie: 'Yeah, we all get on well.'
Matt: 'I lived with James when I was 16. Well, I lived with my parents but I spent loads of time at James' 'cos we were writing songs. And I've met Charlie's parents - they're lovely.'
James: 'All our families know each other very well. They even hang out, occasionally!'
What were your first impressions of the other lads' families?
Charlie: 'I thought they were all really nice.'
Matt: 'Charlie's dad is the funniest guy! Strangely, Charlie's parents aren't as posh as Charlie. But they are posh! Of course they're posh - they're Charlie's mum and dad!'
James: 'It was pretty cool meeting the other boys' families for the first time. I remember when I stayed with Matt, his mum and his sister for the first time. I thought they were cool.'
Stuffed
So what's Charlie's house like?
Matt: 'It's a nice, big house - but there are no stuffed animals on the wall in the hallway! Charlie's got his own 'den' in the garden and it's the size of a triple garage! It's like a very posh garden shed. It's got a TV, video and DVD player in it.'
Do they have welly boots lined up at the back door?
James: [Laughs] 'Maybe! Charlie lives in the country, whereas Matt's family are very urban - they live in Kingston-upon-Thames. We really do come from diverse backgrounds, but we all get on. It's weird.'
Charlie: 'All our families are just normal, really.'
How do your parents feel about girls lusting after you?
James: 'They find it extremely funny. It's like, I go home and then all the neighbours bring their teenage daughters round! Some people wouldn't like that, but it doesn't really bother my parents. They're very chilled out about it. And I'm chilled out about it too.'
Charlie: 'I don't really talk to my parents about that sort of thing! I'm just taking it all as it comes - if it happens, then it happens.'
Dweeby
Do you fancy each others' mum?
Charlie: 'I don't even wanna answer that question!'
Matt: 'I used to tell my mate Adam that I fancied his mum just to annoy him! She's a very attractive lady. Me and my friends said it all the time!'
James: 'I don't comment on people's mums - I think it's disrespectful.'
Oh, go on...
James: 'I just don't fancy people's parents. That's weird!'
Charlie: 'I think some of my mates' mums are fit but I wouldn't go there 'cos they're too old for me. I'd feel really uncomfortable going out with anyone over 25/26.'
Matt: 'I've never fancied anybody's mum - that's dreadful!'
James: [Laughing] 'We never discuss each other's mums. But if one of them did fancy my mum, then it'd be nice. It's nice to have a fit mum, isn't it? But then if they started to refer to her as a M.I.L.F., then I'd get worried.'
A what?
James: 'In American Pie, they refer to Stifler's mum as a M.I.L.F. - a Mum I'd Like To..'
Er, stop! That's quite enough. Now, tell us what's under your bed.
Matt: 'Probably sh*t, like socks and dust! And there might be a copy of Sneak under there!'
Charlie: 'Shoes and clothes I've chucked under there. Nothing really - just some odd bits of washing!'
James: 'I've got some CDs and guitars under there and my collection of Pogs from when I was a teenager. I was a bit of a collector freak. It sounds dweeby, but it was cool then.'
Outrageous
Do you watch TV in bed?
Matt: 'I saw Wife Swap for the first time a few weeks ago and thought it was brilliant. It's outrageous! I'm also a massive Jonathan Ross fan. I'd love to be on his show. We went on V Graham Norton once, but he asked us questions that we'd been asked a thousand times before, so he didn't get the best out of us.'
James: 'I don't watch TV in bed - I always listen to Michael Jackson instead. If Michael Jackson was homeless, I'd offer him a place to live. Can you imagine if my kinds wanted help with music homework and I was like, 'Michael will help!''
Charlie: 'I just watch MTV2 - I have it on all the time.'
When was the last time your mum told you off?
Matt: 'I haven't been told off by my mum recently, but I was going to Amsterdam a few weekends ago with my girlfriend and I turned up an hour-and-a-half late. She was furious! I got such a b****cking.'
James: 'I got told off yesterday. I went out all day and didn't tell my mum where I was.'
Charlie: 'My mum has a go at me for not washing my clothes - I have to do it myself.'
And when was the last time you lied to your parents?
Charlie: 'I told them I couldn't get to the phone when I could!'
James: 'I don't remember. You have to tell white lies now and then. Look at Jim Carrey in Liar Liar - he had to lie for a whole day.'
On to the important stuff - what's the longest you've gone without changing your pants?!
Matt: 'I've gone for two days, maybe. I do change 'em every single day normally, though!'
James: 'I'd never turn them inside out. That would just make your trousers smell. We change clothes lots at photo shoots, so it would be horrible if we had smelly pants on!'
So you change them every day?
James: 'Well, not always! If we're away for three nights and I can't be arsed to pack any clothes, I might stay in the same pants for those three nights. But not any longer!'
Shower
What gross thing do you love to eat?
Matt: 'I love green olives! I eat them all the time! And I used to like beans on toast with an Oxo cube crumbled on top!'
James: 'I love apple and peanut butter sandwiches. It's only gross if you think about it!'
Charlie: 'I like eating hot peppers on their own and going, 'Argh!'.'
Do you have any odd habits?
Matt: 'I've got into the habit of brushing my teeth in the shower while I've got conditioner in my hair. It saves time!'
Charlie: 'When I was younger, I always got paranoid about the door being locked because I was worried about burglars.'
James: 'I went though a stage when I had to put my shoes together when I took them off.'
Do you prefer a shower or a bath?
Matt: 'I never have a bath - it's quicker to have a shower.'
James: 'If I'm feeling tired, I'll have a Jacuzzi. But if I just want to be clean, I shower.'
Charlie: 'I bath because then you can listen to music.'
Do you use any girly products?
Charlie: 'I use a hairdryer 'cos I can't do anything with my hair when it's wet. It really p***es me off!'
Matt: 'I condition my hair. That's a bit girly, innit?! But I only do that about twice a week.'
James: 'All I do is wash, brush my teeth and put my clothes on. I stay in bed as long as I can every morning. I'd rather have the extra sleep than worry about how I look.'
Busted Bits
Charlie: 'There's no girl in the world who I find fitter than Britney. I don't know why! If I could take her on a date, I may even take her to the pub. We'd have a real good English time - we'd have a pint and fish 'n' chips!'
James: 'I was popular with girls when I was growing up, but certainly not in the way I am now - not on the scale it is since I've been in Busted. I was never a stranger to girls, though!'
Matt: 'Taking our tops off for photos is a definite no! I look at bands who do that and think, 'What the hell is wrong with them?!' No one wants to see what we've got under our shirts, I promise you that!'
Pressure points!
They're daring and some are just disturbing, but we're never afraid to ask a killer question!
Naughty nibbles!
Has anyone ever eaten something off your body?
Charlie: 'Er.. no.'
Matt: 'A girl did a tequila slammer off me once. But I've got no tales about food - that's just weird!'
James: 'Once a horse ate grass out of my hands. Does that count?'
Rude food!
Have you ever done a runner from a restaurant?
Matt: 'No, I haven't. I'm pretty good with things like that. If a waiter was rude and the food was sh*t, I just wouldn't leave a tip.'
Charlie: 'I have - I had a row with my parents at a family dinner a few years ago and just walked out of the restaurant. But my parents were paying anyway.'
James: 'I've never done that! I once nicked something from a shop when I was young, though. I felt guilty for months.
Blazin' boys!
If you were reincarnated as a member of Blazin' Squad, who would you be and why?
Matt: [Laughing] 'I'd be Flava. He looks like a cool guy and he knows a lot about music. He knows all about Nirvana [90s rock band] - I talked to him on the Smash Hits! tour quite a bit.'
James: 'I'd be Flava too. It's 'cos he sings and I'm not very up on the whole MC thing. He's a really nice guy, too.'
Charlie: 'I'd be Krazy, because he is so crazy.'
Sorry state!
When was the last time you had to apologise to someone?
Charlie: 'Oh God - it was two months ago on The Saturday Show, I said 's***w you' and the programme's bosses made me phone a family who had called in to complain. I had to apologise to them. It was a bit of a misunderstanding.'
Matt: 'I'm going to have to apologise to my friend Karen. I'm a godfather to her kid and I'm the worst godfather in the world. So far, I've already missed the christening and the birthday!'
James: 'Actually, I'm always saying sorry when I shouldn't. It's a bad habit of mine.'
Mad munchies!
If you were stranded on an island with no food, which member of Busted would you eat first?
Matt: 'There's more of Charlie, so I'd start on him.'
Charlie: 'I'd eat James, because he's the smallest!'
James: 'There'd be far better ways of getting food. What about fish?'
It's a polluted island with no fish.
James: 'How would I get there?'
It doesn't matter! Would you rather Matt and Charlie ate you?
James: 'No! But I wouldn't eat them 'cos I would always live in hope that we'd be rescued. If they tried to eat me, I'd run into the ocean and swim away!'
