'Hull Big Brother star Dan Bryan is in talks to become the new frontman of legendary 80s band Kajagoogoo.

The 30-year-old singer was approached by the band's bass player Nick Beggs after he got to the last three in an audition to join Frankie Goes To Hollywood...'

Full story at This is Hull & East Riding.

Does this mean he will have to have a stupid hair-do.........

do-do aye-do-aye

perhaps Dan could wear a "Limahl" spiky wig!That would be a pretty funny sight!

hush hush, aye do aye I thought Limahl was a little bloke, Dan'll never pass for him the size he is

Any other 80's band he wants to audition for? Blancmange? Soft Cell? T'Pau? Will someone please tell him all those 80's revival tours were last year!

There was sexy little (but not so little, apparently) Limahl, and then there was a big, horrible guy with white curly hair and a huge thumb which used to twang bizarrely when he played the bass.

Unfortunately, Dan is too similar to the white haired goon to add anything new to Kajagoogoo

Right you lot I have come to sort you out Leave the lovely Dan alone You know full well, that we are only supposed to pick on four ex bb5er's on this forum, and that's Michelle, Stuart, Nadia and Victor. Those four are fair game not Dan



Dan has only auditioned for 'Frankie Goes To Hollywood', so far, and remember, kajagoogoo approached the lovely Dan, not the other way round and these are one off shows too

No, we will NOT leave him alone. All that stuff about "oh, I don't want to win, I'll walk if I'm in the final week", he should have wanted to win as much as Nadia or the scottish one, he got to the last week, didn't he? It's like a band having a top 5 record saying they don't want it to go to number one!

Unless he thought it was already in the bag?

Are you losing it Achtung what has this thread to do with winning or losing BB5 get back on track

BB5 is over and Nadia won so it doesn't matter now well I suppose it does to Mesostim

Didn't they only ever have the one hit?

One hit wonders being revived ..... sad

They had 3 to my knowledge:too shy,ooh to be ahh! and big apple (with Nick Beggs on lead vocal) Do I get my prize now?

I only know "Too shy" ....

I've never heard of the others ... What prize? You can have a smilie instead

My friend who isn't a member of this site, has asked me to post this as you lot seem so interested in Kajagoogoo In the news section you will find an article on the teaming up of Dan and kajagoogoo

Kajagoogoo site

Aww, Susann...........your Dan is one of the talking heads on ITV2's Abba prog that's on right now !!

What did he say ... please?

I know Now there's dedication from me enduring Abba, whom I can't stand to catch a glimpse of Dan

Thanks swing, I would never have seen that, but for you. MWAH!

Oh susann, it's hard not to like Dan, but there is a ridiculous side to him too. The thought of him milling about in the remnants of Kajagoogoo is just bizarre.

So I take it he will unceremoniously dump his band "Icehouse"???

"Sorry guys, I want to be famous, and I have plans for the future,...unfortunately you don't figure in them.
Now that I have an offer on the table that I find attractive, I've decided to f**k you lot off and join Kajagoogoo. I've decided that I don't care about loyalty to you anymore, so I'm dumping you.
It's business. Now I can earn more money(That I find so vulgar) and my plans for acheiving fame are better served without you sad losers"

There's an update in the Hull Daily Mail from 29.11.04

Dan Bryan has been invited for dinner at Kajagoogoo's Nick Beggs' house to discuss joining the band.

The Big Brother star is expected to go to the Beggs' mansion this week for in-depth talks about him becoming the band's new frontman.

Dan said he is interested on the proposal but stressed his commitment will always be to his Hull band iceHouse.

Then what's he doing having dinner discussing joining the band for then?

Has Dan told Icehouse that just before Nick Beggs offers him the place as Kajajagoogoo's new frontman, he really, really promises to walk out of the dinner engagement at the last minute as he won't win the place anyway?

The way I understand it is that Dan is looking to see if there's any way he can fit both bands into his schedule. The 'commitment to iceHouse' bit would indicate that if there's a clash then iceHouse would take priority.

Petty even for you :yawn:


Why do that ? maybe he should just immitate another ex hm's behaviour and pull a stinky hat on and just threaten them to get what he wants ( ex housemate in question. Clue : 'Do you know who he is, do you know who he is' ? )

I'm sure he could fit the 'Icehouse' and 'Kajagoogoo' schedules around his hairdressing job without too much hassle.............
