This is not satire.
Former Boyzone singer Keith Duffy is set to form a new band with ex-Westlife member Brian McFadden, and the pair are hoping to convince some of their mates to join them.
They’re going to call it Boyzlife. Deary me.
The plans were discussed at Ronan Keating’s wedding, with McFadden confirming that it wasn’t just the booze talking.
“We all had a chat, the lads. We said it would be amazing,” he told The Sun.
“Not even just performing together, but can you imagine the craic? Nine of us Irish lads on a tour bus together, going round the world together.
“It would be absolute carnage. We all get on so well so you never know. We would have so much fun on tour.”
The plan is currently just for McFadden and Duffy at the moment, but McFadden is not ruling out more of their former bandmates joining up.
Kian Egan and Nicky Byrne are busy with RTÉ and, in Nicky’s case, the Eurovision, while Keating’s latest album has hit no.3 in the UK charts, so the chances of a mass gathering of former teen idols is slim.
