New Kids On The Block have claimed that their British fanbase is the "most frenetic".

The reformed boyband, who release comeback album The Block next month, also said their UK supporters are "hot".

"British fans are the most frenetic, funny, witty - very unlike America," Donnie Wahlberg, 38, told Heat.

"You're being swarmed by 20,000 girls, and a fan in London will say 'Donnie, when you sang that song, it meant a lot to me', while ripping your clothes off. It's charming!"

Danny Wood, 39, added: "British fans are hot. On fire! There are so many beautiful women in the UK."

The pop group releases comeback single 'Summertime' on September 1.
