Quotes

"I'm young, free and single. So if there's anyone out there! Seriously it is very hard to have girlfriends as we are away so much - that's the reality of it and it's going to be worse before it gets better."
- Shane on having girlfriends in the business

"I felt weird - I was dead paranoid about it. I thought, 'Is everyone staring at me, is it obvious?'"
- Shane on having to wear make-up

"I used to have a toy cat called Kitty. It wasn't a pink cat but it wasn't a black cat either if you know what i mean. It was something a girl would definitely have had. I'd hide him under the bed when my friends came round."

"I was caught speeding past a hospital doing 47 mph in a 30mph zone. There were four of us in the car and it was just after I passed my test. We were on our way to the Irish trials for rugby and we were late so on the bigger roads I was probably going a lot faster. Luckily the cop loved rugby so he let me off although he wasn't too happy with my dodgy number plate."

"I went away for a three-day rugby tournament and I forgot all my boxer shorts. We were in the middle of nowhere and I had to wear the same pair day in, day in, day out, even during the matches. They smelt after a while!"

"My perfect day off would be home in Sligo, somewhere peaceful where I'd be able to chill out, then go up to the land and see the horses!!"

"Boxer shorts, or sometimes nothing, but usually boxer shorts..."
- on what he wears in bed

"Ronan's a lovely guy, but don't disturb him when he's tired - you wouldn't like him when he's angry!"
- Shane on their pop star manager

"All the time, the worst thing is that my dad and my family have a restaurant. it's like my house is open to the public. Girls just walk in and sit there all day..they'll have a cup of tea for like, 10 hours."
- Shane on whether fans come to his house

"Mum and Dad have lived above the family fish and chip restaurant in Sligo for 32 years. I've promised them a house in the country."

"I ride horses."
- on what he does when he's not performing

"About 70 per cent of the girls who talk to us are only interested in the band and our money. We could take advantage but it is not our style. It makes you very cynical about people."
Shane on the problems of being single, famous, and in a band...

"The worst thing is if I'm with a girl and I realize she doesn't give a s**t about me or my feelings. They just want to go out to fancy clubs, get free drinks and show me off. I've met a few girls and now I can tell straight away. I know within five minutes if she's doing it because she wants be with a Westlife person or is chatting to me for me."

"My whole world changed when Michael Jackson brought out the Bad album when I was about eight or nine. He took over my whole life and from then on I wanted to be Michael Jackson. I watched his videos for hours and learned how to dance like him. I would push back the chairs in the room and learn his dance moves. I even taught myself to moonwalk."

"Sometimes Shane doesn't listen to you. He stares into space while you're going, 'Shane. Shane. SHANE!' then he goes, 'WHAT!?' That's annoying."
- Mark on Shane's most annoying habit

"I always cry when I leave my mum, because I hate seeing her face when I go. I know she's going to start crying -- I can see the tears building up, it's like she's holding a river in her eyes. We're really close."

Mark on Shane: "He can be quite serious at times and he switches off"

His scariest moment was when he was younger and he was kicked in the head by a horse. He said it wasn't too bad cos it was a small pony and didn't get him right. But it happened really quickly and Shane didn't know where he was cos he was so dazed afterwards!
