“The Vamps” is made up of four guys from the UK who first gained popularity on YouTube, then saw international success – James McVey, Brad Simpson, Connor Ball and Tristan Evans.

Their third studio album, “Night & Day”, was released last week (the first part of it, anyway – the album was divided into two parts.)

Following the album’s release, James apparently promised his fans to post a nude photo if it would get to Number 1.
