But, with the younger Westlife boys as their support act on the

, Keith added: "I'm thinking, these are new lads. I can teach them the ways of the road. So, I jumped on their bus."
The hitmakers also lifted the lid on their new group, Boyzlife, and how the dynamic duo came to be.
Brian explained: "Well, actually, I was doing a gig on my own in Whelan's in
"After the show, we had a couple of pints and were catching up. Keith told me about this show that he'd written for himself, which was kind of an autobiographical show where instead of writing a book, he would tell his life story on stage.

"I thought that was a brilliant idea. So, later on that night, we said, it wouldn't be great if we did it together."
"So, we actually would go on stage and interview each other and tell stories together about our life. And that's kind of what Boyzlife was. It was never actually a band name. It was the name of the show we were doing."

exclaimed: "It was supposed to be a four-week deal. And 10 years later, we're still here."
Kielty was intrigued to find out why the two

had lasted longer in Boyzlife than they ever did in their respective groups.
Brian was quick to quip: "I'm not going to lie. Honestly, the reason I'm here ten years is because five years ago, I was going to leave, but I thought, there's no way if I leave another boy band, I'll ever get away with it.
CRINGE COMMENT
"So, I said, I'm going to have to stay. So, I just haven't been able to leave yet."
However, not happy with Brian's cheeky response to the question, Keith decided to make a risky jab at his pal.
The No Matter What star sarcastically replied: "That's pretty much it and I got a prenup, because he's been married so many times now. I had to get a sign-off.
"You know, wives and businesses, he just leaves them."

Westlife to mark 25 years with new album and shows
Westlife have announced plans to mark their 25th anniversary with a new album and a series of special shows to celebrate the milestone. The news comes more than two decades after their first world tour began on 9 February 2001 at Newcastle Arena in the UK. In a statement shared on Instagram, the band said they are "thrilled to announce the launch of our 25th anniversary celebrations" and promised "new music, an album, special shows and many, many more surprises along the way." They confirmed that Mark Feehily will not be taking part in the anniversary events due to ongoing health issues. Kian Egan, Nicky Byrne and Shane Filan will continue the celebrations as a trio. "We hope he can join us back on stage when he is ready and able. He sends his love and positivity to you all as always," they added. Westlife have enjoyed remarkable success in Ireland over the past 25 years. They hold the record for the most number-one albums by an Irish act, with eleven albums topping the Irish Albums Chart. On the singles front, the group have had sixteen number-one hits in Ireland, including Flying Without Wings, My Love, Uptown Girl and Mandy. Their debut single Swear It Again also topped the Irish chart, while Fool Again peaked at number two in 2000. Feehily, who became a father in 2019, has dealt with ongoing health challenges in recent years. He underwent surgery for a hernia and previously revealed he had been treated for sepsis during the pandemic, which led to several absences from live performances.

'Unparalleled talent': Surviving Beach Boys lead tributes to Brian Wilson
THE SURVIVING ORIGINAL members of the Beach Boys have paid tribute to the 'genius' of Brian Wilson after his death aged 82 . His cousin Mike Love said Wilson's 'musical gifts were unmatched' while Al Jardine described his bandmate as 'my brother in spirit'. Wilson was the eldest and last surviving of the three brothers who formed the American rock band with Love and school friend Jardine in 1961. 'The melodies he dreamed up, the emotions he poured into every note – Brian changed the course of music forever,' Love wrote in a lengthy post on Facebook, saying there was 'something otherworldly' about Wilson. 'Like all families, we had our ups and downs. But through it all, we never stopped loving each other, and I never stopped being in awe of what he could do when he sat at a piano or his spontaneity in the studio.' Describing Wilson as 'fragile, intense, funny' and 'one of a kind', he said his music 'allowed us to show the world what vulnerability and brilliance sound like in harmony'. 'Brian, you once asked 'Wouldn't it be nice if we were older?' Now you are timeless,' he wrote. View this post on Instagram A post shared by The Beach Boys (@thebeachboys) Posting a picture of himself with Wilson on Facebook, Jardine said: 'I will always feel blessed that you were in our lives as long as you were'. 'You were a humble giant who always made me laugh and we will celebrate your music forever.' On Wednesday, Wilson's family said in a statement to his website: 'We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved father Brian Wilson has passed away. 'We are at a loss for words right now. Please respect our privacy at this time as our family is grieving.' Elton John posted on Instagram, saying Wilson was 'always so kind to me' and 'the biggest influence on my songwriting ever'. Advertisement View this post on Instagram A post shared by Elton John (@eltonjohn) 'He was a musical genius and revolutionary,' he wrote. 'He changed the goalposts when it came to writing songs and changed music forever. A true giant.' Bob Dylan was among other musicians to pay tribute, the 84-year-old posting on X that he was thinking 'about all the years I've been listening to him and admiring his genius'. Fellow singer-songwriter Carole King described Wilson as 'my friend and my brother in songwriting' while former Velvet Underground member John Cale said on X he was 'a true musical genius toiling away at melding POP into startling sophistication'. Heard the sad news about Brian today and thought about all the years I've been listening to him and admiring his genius. Rest in peace dear Brian. — Bob Dylan (@bobdylan) June 11, 2025 Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood paid tribute to Wilson and US musician Sly Stone, who died earlier this week, in a social media post, saying: 'Oh no Brian Wilson and Sly Stone in one week – my world is in mourning, so sad.' His bandmate Keith Richards posted an extract of his 2010 memoir, Life, on Instagram recalling hearing The Beach Boys for the first time on the radio and his reaction to their 1966 album Pet Sounds. The extract reads: 'When we first got to American and to LA, there was a lot of Beach Boys on the radio, which was pretty funny to us – it was before Pet Sounds – it was hot rod songs and surfing songs, pretty lousily played, familiar Chuck Berry licks going on… 'It was later on, listening to Pet Sounds, well, it's a little bit overproduced for me, but Brian Wilson had something.' Sean Ono Lennon, the son of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, described Wilson as 'our American Mozart' in a post on X while The Monkees drummer Micky Dolenz said 'his melodies shaped generations, & his soul resonated in every note'. Wilson was born on 20 June 1942, and began to play the piano and teach his brothers to sing harmony as a young boy. The Beach Boys started as a neighbourhood act, rehearsing in Wilson's bedroom and in the garage of their house in suburban Hawthorne, California with Wilson playing bass alongside his brothers Dennis as the drummer and Carl on lead guitar. The band were managed by the trio's father, Murry Wilson, but by mid-decade he had been displaced and Brian, who had been running the band's recording sessions almost from the start, was in charge. They released their most recognised album, Pet Sounds, in May 1966 which included the popular songs Wouldn't It Be Nice and God Only Knows. The Beach Boys were inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1988 and received a Lifetime Achievement Grammy Award in 2001.
