Brian McFadden denies having feuds with shock jock Kyle Sandilands and ‘Egg Boy’

Brian McFadden has spoken out about separate feuds with Kyle Sandilands and “Egg Boy”, who broke an egg over senator Fraser Anning’s head over his Christchuch shooting comments, but there is plenty of evidence to suggest otherwise.

Brian McFadden has denied there is “bad blood” between him and former best friend Kyle Sandilands after Sandilands went public about their broken down friendship in 2017.

The former Westlife singer is in the country supporting pop group Boyzone who are touring for the last time, and despite doing plenty of press he won’t be appearing on the Kyle and Jackie O show.

Sandilands has come out in the past saying their friendship ended in 2012 when he did not show up for McFadden’s wedding, but McFadden denied there was any “bad blood”.

Kyle Sandilands and Brian McFadden were once best mates until the shock jock didn’t turn up to McFadden’s wedding.

“I haven’t spoken to Kyle in years, there’s no bad blood,” he told Confidential.

“Obviously I moved back to the UK and he stayed in Australia and we just haven’t seen each other or spoken in a long time. “There’s no bad blood or no negativity.

“We don’t have a bad thing to say about each other, we just haven’t seen each other in a long time.”

Last week Sandilands said McFadden had cancelled appearing on his radio show three times in a row.

“Brian said he was going to come on last week and he didn’t show up,” he said on air.

“The third time in a row — (he’s) banned. “Come on bro you’re taking the piss.”

That wasn’t the only feud McFadden denied.

During the “Egg Boy” saga McFadden piped up on Twitter saying the 17-year-old “deserved a slap” for breaking an egg over Fraser Anning’s head after his abhorrent comments about the Christchurch shooting.

He then was on the receiving end of a barrage of tweets defending Egg Boy.

“Brian, must be hard to come to terms with an egg having more hits than you,” one user wrote, while another called him “discount Ronan Keating”.

McFadden did not like Egg Boy’s actions.

Despite reacting to the backlash, saying he wasn’t “upset” by “bandwagon knobs” and their “fat little fingers typing abuse”, he pretended not to know who Egg Boy was when asked by Confidential.

“Backlash? No, not at all. You mentioning it is the first I’ve heard of it,” he said.

“I don’t live my life on social media.

“A lot of people live their life on social media and I think if people tweet something to you that’s backlash. “It’s not really, it’s just a couple of people tweeting stuff.”
