THE Wanted star Max George has returned to work after his heart op — and will go on tour with The War of the Worlds.
The singer, 36, was fitted with a pacemaker last month due to an abnormal heart rhythm.

He will now take up the role of Parson Nathaniel in Jeff Wayne’s Earth invasion musical, having first been cast last April.
Max will appear with his ex-EastEnder girlfriend Maisie Smith, who plays his wife, Beth.
He said: “The last few months have been rough, but after a lot of hard work and rehabilitation, I’m back to my best and I’ll be performing for the whole tour.
“Getting to do this with Maisie is an experience I’m sure I’ll never forget.”
It comes after The Wanted 2.0 postponed their Manchester Cathedral concert in February after George said he would not be “well enough in time” following his second heart operation.

Wayne said: “What a wonderful announcement to make, to be able to say that Max is fit again and joining us on this fantastic UK and European tour.
“Max’s health has been our key priority since he became ill.
“But under doctor’s guidance, he’s managed to fight his way back to fitness.
“Max is a born fighter, and we’re delighted he’s back to good health and able to tour with us.”
Busted’s Charlie Simpson and Enter Shikari’s Rou Reynolds will also appear on the tour, which starts on March 28.
