Nothing
to smile about
(Source New!
Magazine) …It doesn’t looks like Will Young is going to be big in the US –and
no, it’s nothing to do with his ‘less than friendly’ relationship with Pop Idol
Muppet Simon Cowell. Over drinks at the Brits, lovely Will, who is still
outselling rival Gareth Gates, is at a loss. He says, “I’ve been offered a
major deal but I’m in a dilemma – they want me to keep quite about my private
life and, worse that that, they’ve told me I have to get my teeth whitened and
straightened. I thought they were joking, but that is the bottom line.” Sean’s
Secret Advice is to think of Ronan Keating – he spent £20,000 on his
gnashers and two years on he has still to make a wave over the pond!
Bryan
McFadden hits at at Will
(Source Daily
Star)…Bryan McFaddon has blasted Pop Idol winner Will Young, saying he hates
his voice with a passion.
Young shot to No1 with a cover of the Westlife song Evergreen, which Bran says
he's always loathed.
Ever the diplomat, Bryan said: "I still think its crap, I hate it. I
didn’t even want it on our album.
"And then when I heard him singing it, it was even worse. He's a nice guy,
but I don't like his voice. There are a lot of singers people think are great,
but I don't like-he's one of them".
03
Top Of The Pops 2
has just launched a special vote on Housewives' favourite stars. We've chosen
15 classic performers; including Will Young, Michael Bolton, Johnny Mathis,
Julio Iglesias, Barry Manilow, Neil Diamond, David Cassidy, David Essex, Tom
Jones, Englebert Humperdinck, Sir Cliff Richard and Ricky Martin for fans to

We'd like to invite
as many fans of Will Young to cast their vote now. The voting closes next
