Lovelife!
Smash Hits Magazine March 2000
Bryan McFadden, you're taking Smash Hits on a hot date. Details please.
WHAT DO YOU WEAR?
Whatever's clean! No, actually I've just bought a new suit. It was hand-made by an Irish designer. It's black with a black shirt and the bottoms are really baggy so I can wear white runners underneath. It looks really cool 'cos you only just see the top of the trainers. I look a bit like a gangster when I wear it, but I like that! As for underwear, I'd probably wear a pair of Calvins or my lucky boxer shorts. They're long, red and they have cartoon characters on them!
HOW LONG WOULD YOU SPEND GETTING READY?
Probably the whole day. I'm dedicated.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
Whatever you want because if I wanted to go on a date with you, you'd look beautiful in anything. I don't like girls wearing tarty clothes like skirts and boots, I prefer them in jeans. I don't mind if a girl wears a skirt, but I think they look best when they don't have to try. I like girls who don't have to wear make-up. I hate it when a girl wears a low-cut top, a little skirt and loads of make-up. It's just not them, it's not the real person. And I do get jealous if I walk down the street with a girl and every man stares at her.
WOULD YOU PICK ME UP?
Of course. I haven't got a car so I'd borrow my best friend's. He drives a big Merc so I'd go for that.
WHAT WOULD WE DO?
I'd pick you up in the afternoon and we'd go to the zoo first. Then we'd go to the cinema, then for dinner and then for a walk along the beach. We'll see whatever you want at the cinema and then we'll eat whatever you want. If you like Italian we'll have Italian, if you like Japanese we'll have Japanese. I don't like champagne, but you can have it if you want. I'd also like to introduce you to my nan, 'cos you'd love her. She tells the best stories. But that might be a bit full-on for a first date!
WHO PICKS UP THE BILL?
I do, definitely. No question. If you wanted to pay half, I'd probably say you could pay for the cinema, but I'd sneak off and pay for it myself when you weren't looking!
WHAT TIME DO I GET HOME?
Depends how the date goes. If it's good, you'll probably get home at 8am the next morning. (Blushing) I don't mean you'd stay at mine, we'd just be partying all night. We could go to a club after the beach.
DO I GET A GOODNIGHT KISS?
If you let me. If it happens it happens. I wouldn't deliberately try to kiss you.
WHO'D BE YOUR IDEAL DATE?
I'd much rather go out with someone who's not famous. I think Jennifer Love Hewitt and Catherine Zeta Jones are very good-looking, but I wouldn't want to go on a date with them. I prefer to get to know someone before I go on a date with them. My dream date would be someone who makes me laugh, someone who makes me happy and someone I can share everything with.
