Well, this might just be the hottest ticket in town just after Steve Brookstein’s Café Nero tour of 2010. Get ready to scream: Gareth Gates will be performing a series of intimate gigs aboard P&O cruise liners!
Despite coming second to Will Young and being signed by Simon Cowell, Gareth’s career is now performing as a cabaret act to people who go on holiday on a boat.
Well, seeing as he has already done the West End, Dancing on Ice AND panto – there wasn’t really too many washed up popstar options left, unless he was up for eating kangaroo genitals. Ah, how the mighty have fallen. However, while we have our reservations, Gareth is certainly looking forward to it:
'I’ve never been on a cruise ship before but I’ve always wanted to and so this is going to be a fantastic experience for me.'
If you care to remember the GG wonder years, when he wasn’t off ‘getting to know’ Jordan, he did actually sell over 3.5 million records and we all absolutely adored him and his funny spiky hair do. We think we even had his calendar.
For those of you who are interested, Gareth is setting sail next month! If you do go, you are in for a treat as Gazza has even agreed to meet and greet following his performance.
