Today's lead story

Westlife cancelled shows in Brighton on April 9th and 10th have been rescheduled for June 13th and 14th respectively.

The band obviously didn't want to have to cancel the original dates, but unfortunately, Nicky had to undergo a medical procedure in order to rule out the possibility of a kidney stone.

Otherwise, the Turnaround tour is going fantastically well- thanks to everyone for being such a great crowd, and we hope the Brighton concert goes enjoy their dates in June...

Westlife Experience O2 in Dublin...

The fabulous foursome Westlife broke with their hectic touring schedule on April Fools Day yesterday to officially open the plush new O2 Experience store on Grafton Street...

When ShowBiz Ireland got the call late yesterday evening stating that Westlife would be in town at 6pm to open the new O2 Experience Store we thought: "yeah right - pull the other one," what with it being April's Fools Day and all...

But just in case we popped down anyway and low-and-behold there the four guys were ready to greet their public (and us of course!).

The Westlife guys openly chatted and joked with the partygoers at the opening and seemed overwhelmed with all the splendid technological gadgets and gizmos on display.

Nicky Byrne even tried to smuggle a top-of-the-range digital camera out under his coat with his tongue planted firmly in his cheek... What a chancer!

Located on Grafton Street the new O2 Experience store is really something to behold plus a great place to try out all of the latest mobile technology. Check it out!!

Westlife announce extra NI gigs

The band began their tour in Belfast with seven
concerts

Chart-topping band Westlife who have just kicked offtheir Turnaround tour in Belfast have announced a further two dates in the city in June.

Last month, the five piece band became a foursome when Bryan McFadden left to spend more time with hisfamily.

Westlife say things have been going better than they expected without Bryan.

The band are also due to play in the BBC's Music Liveevent in Belfast on 1 May.

They said Northern Ireland audiences were definitelytheir best so they just had to come back to Belfast before the end of the tour.

"At the minute, we didn't have plans to come back to Belfast," said Kian Egan.

The group became a foursome when Bryan McFadden left

"But because of the demand, our agent and the promoters up here felt we could definitely put some more shows on sale and that everybody would want to come back to see the show.

"So we are delighted with it, it is brilliant news for us."

The band were formed in 1999 and reached the top of the charts with their first single Swear it Again.

They are the only act to reach the UK number one with their first seven singles.

They have hit the top spot 12 times, placing them fourth on the all-time list behind Elvis, The Beatles and Sir Cliff Richard.

They have sold more than 30 million copies of their four albums and consistently played to sell-out crowds throughout the UK.

McFadden, 23, is now considering a solo career. His wife, former Atomic Kitten member Kerry, won this year's ITV1 reality adventure show I'm a
Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!
