Boyzone in drunken scrap with Rihanna
Recently reformed Irish pop band Boyzone have reportedly been involved in a fight with members from Rihanna's entourage after a boozy evening in an Australian nightclub.
The fight allegedly took place after one of lads chatted up a girlfriend of one of the members of Rihanna's band. A witness told the Daily Mirror:
"Her boyfriend took offence and all hell broke loose with fists flying everywhere
"The boys held their own despite being unsteady on their feet. Security came to break it all up. They got a stern talking to."
Later in the evening Boyzone's Stephen Gately admitted: "Well, we did get into a fight - certainly more than a difference of opinion. We are
keeping up that fine image of the Irish and too much booze.
"It was over a girlfriend of one of Rihanna's band members. We just wanted to chat and be friendly and this guy tries to rough us up.
"It was his girl and then all the other guys from the band start getting fresh with us - so it was on there and then."
Shane Lynch also admitted he "hadn't slept for two weeks".
Aside from a sting of hits in the late 1990s, Boyzone are also famous for an embarrassing clip of their very first TV appearance back in 1993.
Watch the clip below and let us know what you think of the Irish crooners.
they shouldnt even be any were near a proper musician like Rihanna, a class A star like her shouldnt even have to know who Boyzone are :)
She sings through her nose and sounds really annoying. I am so sick of her songs
SHE IS A BLOODY NUISANCE TO THE MUSIC WORLD - RELEASING SONGS EVERY OTHER WEEK....
WE ARE SICK OF HER
We are fed up with your music
We are all sick of here and wish she would kindly disappear from the music scene for good (which she will do soon anyway, because releasing so many songs so close to each other is a sure-fire way to "burn out" her career anyway)
