Louis Walsh lets rip at music legend he’s ‘heard bad things about’
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Louis Walsh has yet again taken aim at a music star during a discussion on Celebrity Big Brother . The former X Factor judge, 71, is one of the famous faces currently appearing on the reality series and has come under fire over the past two weeks for repeatedly throwing shade at performers he’s worked with over the years. Kicking it all off by calling his former act Jedward ‘vile’, labelling Ronan Keating a ‘p***k’ and declaring that former Take That band member Jason Orange ‘didn’t have to do much, just a bit of dancing’ , he’s now dished out more savage comments. In a clip shown on Monday’s Late and Live, hosted by AJ Odudu and Will Best, it was revealed Louis is also set to speak his mind on Sir Bob Geldof . During Tuesday night’s episode, the contestants will gather in the kitchen and discuss popular songs from over the decades. Speaking about one, Coronation Street Actor Colson Smith , 25, asks: ‘Who wrote it? Bob Geldof?’ However, an unimpressed-looking Louis replies with a ‘pfft’. Trying to find out the answer from the Irish music manager, Marisha Wallace, 38, then asks: ‘Who did write it? Prince?’ Nodding his head when she exclaims how Prince had written so many songs, Louis simply replies: ‘Yeah he did’. But seeing Louis was looking less than impressed Zeze Millz then questions: ‘I take it you’re not a Bob Geldof fan Louis?’ Louis, still in his dressing gown, then pours himself a cup of tea and takes aim. ‘Well, I think he’s full of s**t,’ he begins. ‘He’s from Dublin. I know little bits. The Boomtown Rats were good.’ Although Marisha apologised in case Sir Bob was tuning in, Louis then jumped in: ‘I don’t give a f***’. Ekin-Su strangely claims Louis Walsh is 'unhappy' in Celebrity Big Brother house X Factor legend says Louis Walsh accidentally confirmed 'tip of the iceberg of abuse' ITV's Lorraine clarifies Celebrity Big Brother's Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu's absence from show Celebrity Big Brother viewers enraged as courageous star puts themselves up for eviction In a statement to Metro.co.uk, Sir Bob’s agent and manager Mark Cowne said he was ‘very surprised by Louis very negative comments’. ‘This is a big year for Bob and Band Aid as we acknowledge the 40th anniversary of the Band Aid single which started the drive to save 32 million people from starvation in the Ethiopian famine. ‘The price of a life that Christmas was a 7” piece of plastic. ‘Bob has continued this mission for 40 years and made dramatic changes to an entire continent.’ He added: ‘But, Louis is free to have an opinion. 1.6 billion people agreed with and followed Bob. I guess Louis Walsh wasn’t with them.’ After he first started criticising fellow figures in the music industry last week, many viewers called for him to be kicked off Celebrity Big Brother . One called him a ‘nasty old man’ while another said his behaviour and comments were ‘vile’. Metro.co.uk has contacted representatives for Sir Bob Geldof for comment. Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV1. Got a story?
