Boyzone Minus Duffy Plus Launch Equals? Poor aul Keith Duffy has been having a-time-of-it lately since Boyzone decided to reunite and go back on the road. With broken bones and now a head on Duffy like John Merrick, perhaps their not-for-the-money-for-the-fans reunion tour is cursed? Someone call in Mystic Meg. Muhahaha... Shane Lynch, Stephen Gately, Mikey Graham, Ronan Keating Boyzone members Shane Lynch, Stephen Gately, Mikey Graham and Ronan Keating got together on Thomas Street last week to launch Keith Duffy's Da's new clothing store for the larger gentleman called 'Plus & Minors'. Shane Lynch, Stephen Gately, Mikey Graham, Ronan Keating Keith was noticeably absent from his father Sean's relaunch of the former Frawleys premises, but whispers were soon abound that he'd gotten some obscure blood disease from a recent ink-encounter with a tattoo artist... Mikey Graham, Stephen Gately, Sean Duffy, Ronan Keating, Shane Lynch But these rumours turned-out to be unfounded, and we were quickly informed by PR lady Tara O'Connor that Duffy had in fact been knocked down by an allergic reaction he had to an item of food he had eaten... Apparently a single pecan nut was the culprit... Always the pecan. Ronan Keating, Mikey Graham, Stephen Gately According to reports poor aul Keet has swollen up something terrible and even his kids are terrified to come near him in his Elephant Man like state... Hey, it might be an improvement? Tish-Boom. Kidding. Get well soon Keitho... Stephen Gately In other Boyzone related news, Stephen Gately has turned author and just finished scribing his manuscript for a children's book... Well, he's the right height to see the world from a child's perspective. Ahem. Oh, we're hot today. Ronan Keating & fan Oh, we forgot to mention that Ronan Keating turned-up to the store launch last week with a blonde under his arm... We can now confirm after much deliberation that the lady pictured above was NOT his wife Yvonne. Well, we're 90% sure! We're so bad today...

Paul O'Connor May 09, 2008 - 17:27 Eh, Caroline i don't think the paparazzi are known for their manners anywhere in the world. thats their job. call me ignorant, but its more important for event organizers to have snappers there as opposed to a few autograph hunters. reality check please! Caroline – Athlone May 09, 2008 - 16:06 Paul you are so wrong i agree with Evie ,these snide backbiting comments are getting out of hand with these reporters,& some celebrity snappers are so rude too, at tv now awards Mansion house they attempted to get us removed from a shelter that organisers had set up for fans myself & some friends just goto the one event each year & we could not believe the nerve of these too camera happy snappers could someone please send them on a manners training course we have written to the organisers of the night to voice our disgust at the way the paparazzi went on Paul O'Connor May 07, 2008 - 16:45 Evie doesnt get the irony, nutter alert!!!
