SIX
to change for the UK...
Reports
in the Irish press state that the popstars SIX
may be forced to change their name, similarly to Westlife
(formerly Westside), before they launch in
the UK.
Head
of BMG Records in the UK, Simon Cowell,
has reportedly requested dramatic adjustments in advance
of the bands UK launch.
These
changes may include the new name as the current one
of SIX is seen as unoriginal.
Plans
are also underway to use a different single for their
UK debut. It seems that their current Irish hit, A
Whole Lot Of Lovin' Going On, is too Steps-like
for the lucrative UK market.
A
close source has said: "It's going to be a complete
nightmare for the group if they have to change their
name. It would be a big embarrassment because they
are known as SIX and have topped the charts with that
name. But their record bosses in London think the
name is too plain and boring and won't attract young
fans".
The group - Kyle Anderson, Sarah Keating, Liam
McKenna, Sinead Sheppard, Emma O'Driscoll and
Andy Orr - looked sullen in Dublin last night
at the launch party of a new Sunday paper, Stars
On Sunday.
SIX
(for the moment)
The
insider concluded: "There are a number of new names
in the hat at the moment but nothing is for certain.
They want to pick something original. The final decision
is down to Louis Walsh but if changing the
name will make big things happen then they are prepared
to do it".
This
will not the first time that Louis Walsh has had to
change the name of one of his groups. Westlife were
originally called Westside, but it was discovered
that an R'N'B group in the US had the name.
Meanwhile,
the UK version of SIX, Hear'Say, have cancelled
their tour, six months before it's scheduled start.
Ticket sales were said to have been poor.

once over...
