Former Westlife member Brian McFadden has been in the
wars recently, with his homophobic remarks in a radio
interview in New Zealand. The Sun reported on the
controversy (no, I don’t have the Currant Bun in my

a link
posted by
Damien Mulley),

The last four words of Damien’s piece sums up where he’s at.
Meanwhile Brian revealed the moment he wanted to quit his former boyband was when they were asked to record a cover of Barry Manilow's Mandy.
The Irish singer announced his departure just months later and started making plans for a solo career.
He said: "We never got any respect as artists because we didn't write all the songs and we weren't a self-producing product. We were being controlled more like puppets than anything else."
