NOT SO NICE QUOTES
We all know that the lads are really smashing lads, and it appears that loads of famous people think so too. Here's a collection of quotes from other famous faces about those likable Irish lovies! Its 'nice to be nice' as my mother always says, except her nickname is 'the dragon' (its not a family trait I assure you)

NOT SO NICE QUOTES |
Which other bands are you friends with? -TV Hits
magazine, May 1999
Kian: Apart from Boyzone, we know Five, B*witched and Steps. Steps are great -
the three girls have got great voices…
Mark: It’s funny you should ask us actually, because we were hanging out with
Status Quo last night - they asked for our autographs for their kids! I was
about to ask for their autographs for my dad.
Kian: There’s one person who doesn’t like us - a new female solo artist. I can’t
say who she is, but we met her one night and we thought we were getting on fine,
then we read a magazine a couple of weeks later and there she was, saying she
hadn’t got on with us all. We were quite upset.
FAMOUS 'QUOTING'

MARIAH CAREY
"They're really great, sweet people and more importantly they're talented. I
don't think it would take anything major to break Westlife in America"
| A1 I think Westlife are brilliant My favourite track is 'Flying without wings' and I think they could have had another No. 1 if they'd release the album track 'Everybody Knows' " - Paul I party with Westlife - they're great lads! - Ben Firstly I want to say a big, well done to them, we have nothing but respect for their achievement. I do think it was less exciting after the first two No. 1's and the timing of the release of some of the singles helped but fair play to them - Mark |
CAT DEELEY
Kian Westlife's always a laugh - he's brilliant at getting into character when
he's in 'Chums'
| BACKSTREET BOYS They're really nice guys and every time we go to an award show, they always go out of their way to say hi to us. - Howie I thought their song was good, I actually saw them on TV in Florida. They were singing with acoustic guitars, and they were doing it totally raw. They have good voices, it sounded really, really good. - A.J I just heard one of their songs today on TV, and it was really good. I liked it a lot. - Nick |
G4
Who's the nicest celebrity that you've met so far?
Mark from Westlife was really, really lovely - they all are. But he's so down to
earth and gave us some really great advice. He really took time to talk to us,
didn't rush us. And asked US a lot of questions - which was really cool. -
Jon
| MARTINE MCCUTCHEON Who do you fancy out of all of the people on Planet pop? Who do I fancy? Um, all the boys in Westlife are pretty cute |
BLUE
But we have the utmost respect for them and I reckon their last song, Hey
Whatever, was one of their best so far. - Antony
I just can't diss 'em. They're Westlife and they are the governors! - Duncan
What it's like to be in the best looking, most talented and successful boyband
ever??....How should I know - ask Westlife?!! - Lee
I love Westlife! We've partied with them and they're great. I think they're
brilliant, cause they've got the balance right. They work hard but they play
hard as well. They're a good bunch of lads. They've got wicked style as well. I
respect them so much. The suit thing they've got going on is great. - Antony
Westlife are gonna be hard to beat, man. Those guys are great. I like their
style, they've got class and have changed with the times. - Simon
I know Bryan quite well, we've got a lot of respect for each other. At the end
of the day, what Westlife have done is incredible. All those No 1s, millions of
albums sold, no one can defeat that, no one can take that away from them. For
us, to be compared to Westlife is great but at the end of the day, we do
different music. - Antony
| MANDY MOORE FWW video : they look so gorgeous in it. I saw it on MTV last time i was in England and i rushed out to buy their album. |
BUSTED
Westlife are talented in their own way, particularly Bryan who is writing the
songs now - Matt
| STEPS Good on 'em! Number ones are funny things. Westlife have been lucky 'cos every time they've released a single there hasn't really been much competition. But they do deserve to do well. - Lee |
REEL
We were on tour with the guys for over 2,5 months, which was brilliant. Hectic
-but brilliant. We had a couple of nights out with the lads, and they'd always
come up to us backstage and wish us good luck before we went on. They're lovely
guys. - Matthew
| BLU CANTRELL They're really cute," she says. "They have good voices too and after 11 number ones, they're doing something right. |
SIX
The Westlife lads are really looking after us and making sure we aren't too
nervous. They really are the most down to earth guys you could ever hope to
meet, especially considering everything they've done in music. - Sinead
We're obsessed with them! We're their stalkers. We've got all their photos, all
their CD's, everything. - Sarah
We look up to them so much. When the auditions came along for this band I
thought; Wouldn't it be great to be like Westlife? Then we met them for the
first time in a corridor at the Childline Concert in Dublin. We were really star
struck! - Emma
| B*WITCHED Westlife are great. We were delighted to see their fourth single go straight in at number one - and match our record - but we didn't want them to beat us by getting a fifth! Seriously, though congratulations, boys! - Edele |
LIBERTY X
We went out with Westlife to celebrate the start of their tour recently. We're
good mates with Westlife - especially Kian cause he's a really good laugh. -
Kevin
| MEL C Everyone loves Westlife; they sent me a bottle of champagne last week 'cos they were worried about all the stories going round, but I know it was all made up and there's no problem between us |
FIVE
Question from Krystal: Do you guys really hate Westlife as much as the media
make out?
Five Jay: We don't hate them. We did pass comments on them when we didn't
really know them. Whenever we meet them now we get on with them extremely well.
We have a few beers together and they are cool guys. I judged them before I knew
them but they are cool guys.
| WHEATUS "Well, when we're in Britain, we love to hang out with that Irish boy band...what's their name? Westlife -that's it! They really know how to have a good time, and they're very friendly." |
DURAN DURAN
People can make fun of me but I wouldn't have a word said against Westlife. Even
if their songs are a bit melody-driven they do it really well. You can't help
but sing along and find yourself enjoying their music. They are the best at what
they do.- Simon Le Bon
| GARETH GATES Oh! I've always wanted to be in Westlife, but I prefer being a solo artist. Also, I get more money as there are only one of me, ha-ha! I've met Westlife actually and they're cool guys I'd like them to be the biggest band in the world! It's taken a lot of hard work and hopefully they'll keep their feet on the ground, but I think there's a lot of potential there |
RONAN KEATING
I like Westlife and what they're doing, I think they make great pop records.
They're talented. Bryan's a great songwriter -Bop Bop Baby's a great pop song.
| KELLY OSBOURNE I don't mind Westlife at all. My mum and I think the guys are really cute. I'm not a big fan of their music, though. |
GIRLS ALOUD
Nadine: "I love Mark from Westlife, I would never criticise him
and I don't think the other girls would either.
| BRIAN MCFADDEN (album credits: Set In Stone 2008) "Westlife. Thank you boys for the 7 great years of success and fun. I'm so glad you boys are still living the dream. I wish you and your families all the best for the future." |
