Vogue Williams has hit back at “jealous” Kian Egan after he slammed Boyzlife last week.
The Voice of Ireland judge is not impressed about the whole situation, and when speaking on The Big Breakfast recently said, “It’s not the right way to do it. I think it was pretty unfair on the fans to make them think that [the bands were uniting.]
“It’s a bit of an off one. You know, a member of Westlife who left the band after four years decides to use half the name for whatever it is they’re doing. If Westlife ever got back together again, it would be Weslife. It would be the four guys who stood in Croke Park the day Westlife ended.”
Vogue, who was married to Brian McFadden, has hit back at his comments.
Writing in the Sunday World, she said, “It was actually six years and without doubt, the most successful period for the band, including 12 number one singles. Westlife only enjoyed a further two number one singles after Brian left.
“Kian was pretty vocal in his attack. Thinking Brian doesn’t have the right to use the Westlife name is frankly just plain stupid. I suspect that Kian may have a case of the green-eyed monster. In fairness to Kian, I’d be raging too if I hadn’t thought of the idea myself, seeing how successful it’s been.
“I’ve met Kian and I do like. I’d say the exact same thing to his face. This isn’t an attack, but I think Kian needs to get a grip and wish Brian and Keith all the best for the tour.”
Miaow!
