Oh dear....
Mike Tyson wants to record song with Boy Band
ITV reports: Tyson has been in touch with their manager Louis Walsh to make it happen. Tyson admits he is "no Pavarotti" but is happy to have his voice digitally enhanced if it means he can record with the Flying Without Wings stars.
"He loves their music so much he wants to be part of it," believes close pal and Irish boxing star Joe Egan.
"Mike's asked me to make contact with Louis Walsh to set the wheels in motion. He'd be happy just to sing on the chorus of a track, but he could always replace Brian McFadden."
"This sounds really interesting. The band are all fans of Tyson," reveals a spokesman for the band.

I wish I could say it was a wind up - but it seems to be reported a few places....

Something does not fit, i smell a rat.
Tyson's into rap music is he not? He'd be seen as a sellout stating 'he loves' Westlife. To actually get on stage with them and prance around like a bender...............
That would be quite a sight, probably be the best bit of tv comedy since Ricky Gervais nutted that bird in The Office!
Perhaps he just wants to get close to 'the boys'

Thats fcukin hilarious
I give Tyson a lot of credit for getting up there and doing that, it shows he's game for a laugh.
But if he performs with Westlife, he will be ridiculed!

They certainly wouldn't want to fall out with him over royalties, that's for fornicating sure.
