888 Take The Embarrassment Out Of Being A Boyband

The guys from 888 (Triple 8) chatted with Top of the Pops and were asked about how they’ve said that they’re taking the embarrassment out of being a boyband, and what they meant by it. David responded, “I just think most boybands that come out of the UK aren’t bad, but they’re just not great. I think if you look at bands like B2K, *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys. They’re great bands. Great music and great singers. I just think that noone from here has really put on a great show like that, since Take That.”

Triple Eight Diss David Sneddon

MRIB reports boy band Triple Eight haven’t even released a record yet and already they’re taking a pop at their rivals, including David Sneddon and the Cheeky Girls. 888’s Josh said, “I just don’t understand David Sneddon. It’s ‘cos he’s Gareth Gates on a piano, isn’t he? And we already have a Gareth Gates and kids love him. I don’t know who David Sneddon appeals to. I just don’t.”
