I've had more comebacks than Frank Sinatra.
Louis Walsh
I say things I shouldn't and I can't stop myself. It's called no filter.
I love Hozier.
A Westlife reunion is definitely going to happen - but I have no idea when.
The 'X Factor' is the biggest show on TV and the other shows are just copying us with their silly chairs. Simon Cowell is the king of TV and if he's not involved then it's not good.
I want to carry on in the music business and in television because it's basically a hobby and a passion that I actually get paid for.
Sharon Osborne, my good friend, sent me to her doctor to have my eyes done in L.A., and it made me look 10 years younger.
The biggest misconception people have about me is that I'm a chancer and they think I'm lucky! They don't realise that I have actually earned it, because I have worked with so many bands. That's all I've ever done is work in music.
You don't bring your wife to work.
I think Dublin is the best place in the world, all you need is money. I feel safe here, no one is going to shoot me, like in the States.
I watched 'In Treatment,' that was good.
I'll never go down the Botox route. I swear to God, never, ever. I want to look like me… the only thing I've had done is my hair and the bags under my eyes taken away.
I'm low-maintenance. And I'm not going vegan.
The Spice Girls are very lucky and very overrated. None of them can sing and their music is not half as good as Girls Aloud's.
Hometown are different to anything I've heard. They have an incredible blend in their vocal styles. They are going to be huge.
I love doing 'X Factor,' I absolutely love it. It has its highs and lows. Sometimes I love it more than other times. It is the best job in the world though.
I'm a good manager, but a bad celebrity.
I've had three Eurovision winners: two with Johnny Logan and one with Linda Martin and even Jedward did great, because 'Lipstick' was a great song and they had a great show. It was a great visual.
Niall Horan was in the right place at the right time, he's the luckiest guy in the world and he knows that.
She's not called Scary Spice for nothing.
Spice Girls appealed to little girls. It wasn't good music - mums would buy the albums for their kids - it was all about the gimmicks.
J.Lo cannot sing, but she's still selling out Vegas.
I married Stephen Gately off to so many people because Stephen didn't want anyone to know he was gay at the start. He was dreading all of his life that this was going to ruin his career.
I grew up in a small village in the west of Ireland.
I worry about dying all the time so I worry about my health. I don't want to die because I absolutely love my life.
What's that man's real name anyway? It's not will.i.am, is it? He thinks he's got all the answers, but if he didn't have Fergie in the band, where would he be? Fergie is the real star. I would love her on 'The X Factor,' and to be a judge on the show.
If you're Ronan Keating, who was working in a shoe shop when I discovered him, but end of thinking you're George Michael, then you need to be stopped.
All I do in Dublin is relax and live away from the cameras. There are a few coffee shops I love and I spend my days in there drinking cappuccinos.
I don't want to hang around in a wheelchair in a nursing home. I don't. I don't want to be like that.
There's a difference between buying a few places yourself and getting into the property game.
I act like I'm a bit stupid.
My sexuality is irrelevant.
I buy a lot of art. I buy Andy Warhols.
I do love great pop music, The Hollies had brilliant pop records.
Westlife never got the credit they deserved.
I don't care about making a fool of myself at all.
I hate putting on weight.
There's nobody knows more about dancing and choreography than Arlene Phillips, ever.
I never wanted to be on TV.
You get x amount of years at the top… boybands are like buses - there's always another one coming along.
I will never forget walking out on a Saturday night with Simon Cowell and Sharon Osbourne, household names who were opinionated and full of confidence, and I was just this Irish guy.
I don't want to be a celebrity. I never, ever did.
I don't have many friends, but I have enough. I'm not one of these people who collects celebrity friends.
I like insult comics. Joan Rivers, Dame Edna, people like that.
Money doesn't make you happy - I know people in the U.K. with money, they never seem to be happy.
A lot of people who want to be serious artists probably don't want to go for a talent show, but it is a great launching pad.
Too many artists appear to forget where they came from.
You can always spot the professionals. Taylor Swift, she knows what she's doing.
It's hard work if you want a proper and a lasting career.
Everybody says they were 'born to sing' but you can suss the good from the bad. You can tell who's in it for the music.
