Westlife make concert a family affair with Kian Egan's wife as their supporting act

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Gravity Tour: Kian Egan, Mark Feehily, Nicky Byrne and Shane Filan of Westlife performed last night at the Birmingham LG Arena


Westlife returned to the stage last night by performing at Birmingham’s LG Arena and kept their supporting act within the family.

Kian Egan’s wife Jodi Albert jumped on stage with her girl band Wonderland, who are managed by her husband and Louis Walsh.

Westlife’s concert was the perfect opportunity to raise the Irish girl band’s profile and Shane Filan’s wife and sister were also singing along in the audience.


Supporting act: Corrina Durran, Jodi Albert, Kasey Smith, Leigh Learmont and Sharon Condon of Wonderland performed ahead of Westlife


And Wonderland made sure to steal some attention from the boy band by sporting skin tight leather trousers.

Former Hollyoaks star Jodi was joined on stage by her band mates Sharon Condon, Corrina Durran, Leigh Learmont and Kasey Smith.


Happy couple: Jodi Albert of Wonderland performed ahead of her husband and manager Kian Egan of Westlife


They performed their debut single Not a Love Song, which was released last month ahead of their debut album release this summer in June.

After 12 years, 14 number one singles and 11 albums, Westlife’s fans might be a little older these days but their popularity seems just as strong, as screaming fans filled the LG Arena.


Man band: Kian and Shane Filan, Mark Feehily and Nicky Byrne belt out their hits sing together on stage


Their Birmingham performance was part of their current Gravity Tour that kicked off earlier this month and will see them tour the UK until June 27.

Their stage show boasted flames, ticker tape and a mechanical bench which moved the band over the audience.

Kian, Shane, Nicky Byrne and Mark Feehily belted out some of their biggest hits including Uptown Girl and Flying Without Wings.

They also treated the audience to their upcoming single Starlight as well as an acoustic version of Adele’s Rolling in the Deep.

Westlife’s manager and X Factor judge Louis Walsh also formed Wonderland after holding auditions for the five girl group in 2008.

Kian helped Louis hold the open auditions and they are now co-managers of the band.

After over three thousand hopefuls auditioned in Dublin, the five girls were chosen and reportedly signed a six figure record deal with Mercury Records.

Wonderland also supported Westlife’s Where We Are Tour last year and will join the band throughout the rest of their current Gravity Tour.

An 'emaciated' Lady Gaga releases shocking photo to promote new album

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Alien: Lady Gaga just released this picture via her Twitter account of her looking emaciated and gaunt


She has made her name by being one of the most controversial performers in the world but Lady Gaga may be taking the shock factor a bit far.

The singer just released this photograph of herself with a clearly altered appearance as part of the promotion for her new album, Born This Way, which is released on May 23.

In the photo Gaga is sporting prosthetic cheek bones and painted eyebrows which make her appear gaunt and emaciated.


Shock jock: Lady Gaga, seen here last month in Paris, is known for her crazy costumes


The shocking photo was posted by the star on her Twitter page and is the first official posting regarding her highly anticipated new record.

Gaga's rail-thin frame has been the subject of much speculation since she rose to fame.

Last year the author of an unofficial biography, and ex-GaGa tour manager, David Ciemny, claimed the star was hospitalised six times in 2009 due to her starving herself to fit into her outrageous stage costumes.

Born This Way will come as her second major studio album.

The 24-year-old singer clearly goes to great lengths to provoke a reaction from her appearance and even admitted last week that her hair is now falling out from all the over-dying.


Fresh faced: The singer appeared healthier and more natural aged 18 when she was attending Manhattan Girls School


Gaga, who is naturally a brunette, has become known for her platinum blonde locks says she misses her dark hair when she 'has to get a chemical hair cut because my blonde hair is falling out,' she told People magazine.

While promoting the upcoming album, Gaga has also been busy continuing her Monster's Ball tour.

Tomorrow she will be performing in Oakland, California then Sacramento on Wednesday before heading to Las Vegas this weekend.

As well as continuing her tour, Gaga has been busy praying for those caught up in the troubles in Japan.

She has also been busy raising funds for the region, designing a prayer bracelet, the profits of which will go to a Tsunami relief fund.

In just 48 hours sales raised more than $250,000 for the charity.
