Any member of Westlife? Really? Even Kian? You couldn't edge a word in sideways. And Des Bishop coming second, are they insane? The ears would be bled off you. And why is Kylie Minogue first choice for the hinternational females? If you went on holidays to a theme park she wouldn't be allowed on any of the rides (trust me, I'm the same height, I know), and irrespective of that, even if she was having a whale of a time you'd never know.
As for the most popular Irish Female Celebs to holiday with, one must note the absence of Glenda Gilson. Somewhere, Rosanna Davidson is doing a slightly out of time happy dance.
