British boyband JLS has announced that they will be calling it quits after just five years in the limelight.The foursome got their break after finishing behind Alexandra Burke in the 2008 season of British “The X Factor” and have sold over 10 million records since.

Ticket sales to their tour has gone up since the announcement and fans initially thought this was just another promotional stunt.

when asked why they are quiting, Aston hinted that they wanted to finish on a high rather than get pushed by the label. Their latest single bombed at 112 in the charts.

They will now go on a massive arena tour. It is safe to say a lot of teenage hearts will be broken.
