Everything A True Fan Wanted To Know About: Shane
What's under your bed?
Absolutely nothing, cos my bed's only about that high (indicates space of an inch) off the ground. You can't put anything underneath it, so I'm quite lucky. No space for mess!
Which toppings do you have on your pizza?
I'm not a big pizza fan but if I were to have one I'd have cheese, tomato and ham. And onion, definitely.
Have you ever been in hospital?
I've been in plenty of times. I was always falling out of trees when I was a kid and always falling off my BMX. I didn't usually have to stay overnight though!
When did you last go horse riding?
Never! i'm not a fan of horses - I hate them! they have their own brains and they can buck you off when they want to!
Is Fairy Liquid kind to your hands?
I wouldn't know because I don't wash up. I've got a dishwasher!
Is there anything you really regret doing with Boyzone?
I regret wearing a over-the-knee silk dress on TV but I enjoyed doing it in the company of the boys. Anything we've done we've done for a reason. I can never slate the things we've done because it brought us to where we are today.
What's the best soap opera on TV?
The best soap would have to be Eastenders - that's class, it's the only one I watch. There are Irish soap operas but they're so crap I can't tell you. I'm not a big fan of any of the Australian or American ones either.
Do you like fun fairs?
I wouldn't go to a fair any more. All of those rides make me sick. I can drive a car as fast as you like but those rides which go round and round do my head in, I get off and I can't walk.
When did you last make someone cry?
I couldn't tell you - I've made a lot of people cry! I'm not nasty, I'm just honest. I usually wait for the person to ask what I think then I'll tell them! (Thinks.) Well, it depends. If it would benefit me to tell them how I felt I'd tell them whether they asked or not.
When was your first shandy booze-soaked evening?
I was on holiday in Portugal with my family when I was about 15, and I downed too much cheap shandy booze. I ended up spending the night on the beach under an upturned boat!
