Kian Egan Interview
Kian Egan Latest News
They were one of the biggest boybands of the late Nineties and early Noughties. And the boys of Westlife made up of Nicky Byrne, Kian Egan, Mark Feehily, and Shane Filan, and previously including Brian McFadden, certainly enjoyed the spoils of the pop star world as they chatted on The Jonathan Ross Show on Saturday. The group soared to fame in 1998 when they were formed in Dublin, with the original line-up also featuring Brian, who later left in 2004, however, the boys admitted the group was wild when they remained a fivesome in their heyday.
The group broke hearts of fans around the globe when they announced plans to disband in 2012 before all embarking on respective solo careers over the years. In the midst of their reunion, the boys have discussed their heyday and the wild antics they used to undertake – including their raucous ways. Discussing what they were like at the age of 21, Shane said: ‘Just before we went on stage we’d look at each other and go “Are we out tonight?” and we just kept going out and we ended up doing 49 or 48 solid nights.’ Explaining the wild years, Mark said: ‘Our security guards got a bar closed down for us in each city and all of us and all of our crew and any guests, everybody filled the bar and they let us stay until whatever time we wanted
‘We’d be getting home at half nine in the morning, the Red Bull was taking us through.’ Echoing his hilarious point, Shane went on: ‘Pints of Vodka Red Bull. It was great fun. We can’t drink it now though.’ The Irish boy band said they were ‘relieved’ to see they still have devoted fans despite the six-year break. Mark said: ‘We were nervous coming back after so long, would the [fans] still be there? Would they still want to come and see us? ‘It was obviously just a huge relief to know that they were all still there and actually there are even more people there than before.
‘The tickets sold out faster and between that and the new album that we’re currently making we just feel so lucky, we really appreciate this, we don’t take it for granted.’ The Flying Without Wings hitmakers were ‘secretive’ about their plans to reform when they first started having meetings, but their ‘cover was completely blown’ when a meeting at Nicky’s house went wrong. Nicky recalled: ‘We were all secretive because we didn’t want anyone to know, we didn’t tell anybody, it was just the four of us on email and we said we’d meet at my house, half past two, be there…
‘At about twenty to three I’m [looking at my watch] thinking ‘the boys are a bit late’ then the boys arrive and said, ‘We’ve just knocked into the neighbors garden and knocked over the plant pot and she went, ‘Ah hi guys, Nicky lives next door.’ So our cover was completely blown.’ And now that several of the members have partners and children, they’ve said they’re able to look at their upcoming tour in a new light, as they’re ‘older and wiser’ than they were when they started out in 1998. Shane said: ‘We’re older and wiser, we’ve got kids and families and stuff and they’re getting to see what Daddy does for a living for the first time and really understand it and it’s just mind-blowing, it’s amazing.’
