The Wanted's Tom Parker died at 33 due to brain cancer. The singer previously revealed his diagnosis in 2020, and had been receiving treatment.

The singer announced in March that his memoir, Hope, would be released on July 21. A single off that album, “Glad You Came,” also reached No. 1 in the U.K. and became a crossover hit in the U.S., where it peaked at No. 3. Parker joined the Wanted in 2009 after a massive audition process; he’d previously auditioned for The X-Factor. The group released its debut single, “All Time Low,” in 2010, which hit No. 1 in the U.K. A self-titled album followed later that year, with a follow-up, Battleground, in 2011. The band’s first performance back was at a cancer charity concert organized by Parker. After receiving treatment for his brain tumor, Parker said last November that his condition was “stable.” The group released a third album, Word of Mouth, in 2013, and went on hiatus after a 2014 tour.

Tom Parker obituary (The Guardian)

Low-key, witty singer of the Wanted who found a post-boyband career in reality TV and the vlogosphere.

“We were happiest when we were on stage, [but] it was all this shit with politics, the record label and too many opinions that caused friction,” he said in 2018. During that year, he kept his hand in by appearing as featured vocalist on the track Fireflies by the former N-Dubz rapper Richard Rawson, but by the time he was ready to fully relaunch, he had missed the golden hour when being an ex-member of the Wanted might have ignited interest. Parker later claimed that when he joined the Wanted, “pop music wasn’t even on my radar”, but in reality it had been for several years. In the singer Tom Parker’s judgment, their time at the top had been “like Beatlemania”, but that was an overestimate. Life in the Wanted, whom he joined after beating 1,000 other hopefuls at an audition in 2009, had been constrictive. In the short term, it is to sell as much “product” – from albums to dolls – as possible.
