Quotes

"I'll know I'm famous when my mum asks me for my autograph" 

"The lads say that girls want to grab hold of my bum, but I think it's probably more my blue, twinkly eyes."
- Nicky on what girls fancy about him. 

"I must have been about 17 and I was living in Leeds. My and three other lads from Dublin got chatting to these girls who asked us what we were doing in England. So we told them we were in a new Irish boy band called OTT cos it was around the time when OTT were just about to hit Britain. And they believed us! They asked us if we knew Boyzone and we pretended we did. They even asked us for our autographs! In a way though it wasn't so much of a lie, but a premonition cos three years later I am in an Irish boyband and I do know Boyzone!" 

"It was at a party to celebrate our exam results and I must have been 15. Its one of those nights when everyone goes out and goes mad. I was at this nightclub called The Furnace in Dublin, which is actually closed down now, and I must of had about 11 snogs. I don't think it was any more than that!" 

Classic by Adrian Gurvitz ...This song marks a special moment between me and my girlfriend, Georgina. Even though I'm too young to remember the track when it originally came out, it was a favourite of my dad's - Nicky senior - and I have memories of hearing it in the early 1980s. It's a ballad that I grew to love and more importantly it was the soundtrack to my first kiss with Georgina."
- Nicky on his favourite romantic song 

"My fave place we've been on this tour so far has been Copenhagen in Denmark. It's a really great atmosphere there. But we've always got to get back on the bus..." 

"At the very start of the band people from Ireland would travel our houses but now it's at the stage where you get people from Switzerland, everywhere, coming to the house...my mum was sitting to the house one time there was group of girls in a taxi with a video camera and they asked my mum if they could come in and take a picture of the house. They come from all over and they will take rose bushes out of our garden and stuff, it's crazy"
- on the fans 

"We've been working so hard, we love it when we get a day off to go home to our families...and spending our time to go shopping... and i like to watch TV with my mum or eat my mum's cooking."
- what he does on his days off 

"We come from normal families and £700 for a pair of trousers is a lot. If my mum asked, I'd probably say £450. Spending a lot on clothes or a watch or ring makes me feel guilty but I think that's a good thing. We appreciate what we've got." 
- Nicky on his extravagant shopping sprees 

"It's like an angel has come out of the sky and asked us five guys, 'What would you like to do with your lives?' The answer is Westlife." 

Mark on Nicky: "He doesn't like anyone talking about his girlfriend" 

"At school everyone would act really cool about how many Valentines cards they got, and you knew everyone exaggerated. I'd always say I got seven." 

"If you wanted the world to stop turning you'd call Ronan!" - Nicky 

Did You Know...?

When Nicky joined the band he couldn't swim! 

His mum does all his washing 

He speaks nicely when Georgina's parents are around (lol - and when they're not?!!) 

Nicky reckons he could make a good racing driver 

He used to live with footballer Alan Smith when he was training at Leeds Utd. 

He broke his elbow at football training and still has a big scar 

He wears 'lucky socks' to gigs 

Nicky missed his first week of school, because he was in a road accident 

He hated maths at school 

He keeps a karaoke machine under his bed 

He used to sing karaoke with his dad - who is also called Nicky - and who has a band called 'Nicky and the Studz' 

Nicky bought a car when he signed to Westlife, but sold it cos he was never home 

He once threw Bryan's boxer shorts out of a hotel window! 

He would like a pet dog, if he had time to look after one. 

He hates going to the gym 

Nicky used to love dancing to 'Mickey' by Lolly 

He always carries photos of his family with him 

Nicky used to pray before every football match that he would play well, and it was him who started the Westlife tradition of praying and saying a Hail Mary before every concert!
