BARRETT WILSON JOINS 5 SECONDS OF SUMMER
By: Vivian Louise, E! Special Reporter

5 Seconds of Summer has finally released their third album Youngblood but that wasn't the only surprise they had in store. They had also mentioned that Barrett Wilson was their new bass player and bandmate!

     "It's honestly such an amazing opportunity but I'm not ready to leave New Jersey just yet," Barrett commented when he was asked about the news. "Everyone's been loving 'Babylon' so far and I'm incredibly grateful for all of the wonderful reviews it's been getting and I guess I have to give some credit to Luke for getting me up at eight in the morning every morning so I could get to the studio on time."

     Also, Luke and Barrett have been spotted holding hands as they exited Trader Joe's a while ago as a fan pointed out saying: "I think I saw Barrett and Luke holding hands today. . ." Rumors have been flying about the speculated couple but nothing has been confirmed yet.
