Oh bugger, he was the fit one! The dark, ,but tall oone, i know shane smaller dark one is married. Ah, Eire06, i think we had him in the totty watch !

It is obvious they will brreak up soon, cos why would they wait until after their success to announce! Shame, but fair play to him to announce. Seems to be a pattern in these irish boy bands, always one! your wee man from boyzone and now mark!

seriouslt would not have thought he is gay, does not look or act.

Some people think I'm gay as well, probably the high voice and make-up... People are thinking in stereotypes really about this, I mean it's not always the more feminin men that are gay...

I did not expect this, but then I am not into mainstream music so I don't know Westlife that well. Only their biggest hits you hear on the radio that often.

Fair play to him for coming out. If people would reveal their 'secret sides' a bit more, we'd have less taboos. Sometimes you need respected people to be the first ones to open people's eyes (the "but he's such a nice/intelligent man..." thing), so no problem for me if he would want to be a role model.
Sometimes people need to take that task to liberate the ones that bear the same cross and make it easier on the ones to come. I'd say despite the publicity outing yourself as "different" (no matter what sort of difference) will get you more negative effects than positive... Sadly enough.

As for this particular fella: would he be taking or giving ?

Must have been hard for him when they did their gigs sitting on a barstool
