Fans call Ronan Keating’s dance moves ‘cringe’ at Dunhill Links gig

Ronan Keating has been branded ‘cringe’ by fans after a lively performance at the prestigious Dunhill Links golf event on Saturday.

The Irish singer, 48, looked dapper in a sharp grey suit as he took to the stage and belted out a rendition of Elvis Presley’s classic Suspicious Minds. 

Ronan appeared in his element, busting energetic dance moves and jumping around alongside a lively live band. 

But while the star was clearly enjoying himself, not everyone was impressed, with viewers taking to social media to mock his enthusiastic performance. 

One wrote: ‘Someone tell him not to do that again.’; ‘Well that was a bit cringeworthy!’; 

‘Painful to watch lol’; ‘That is even more cringe than the famous Boyzone video’; ‘Someone take the bee out of his pants for god sake.’

It comes as Boyzone are reportedly planning a new warts-and-all Sky documentary – after their last fly-on-the-wall series helped them reunite following years of estrangement. 

The beloved boyband, made up of Ronan, Mikey Graham, 53, Shane Lynch, 49, and Keith Duffy, 51, recently announced a final farewell show at London’s Emirates Stadium, marking their biggest concert to date. 

And now, it has been claimed that the group has invited cameras backstage to capture all the behind-the-scenes drama, tension, and emotion as they prepare to take their final bow. 

A source told The Sun: ‘The reaction to their last documentary, No Matter What, was insane.

‘Not only did it help heal the rift between the lads, it sparked the idea of coming together for one last gig and ending their journey on a high. They were so happy with the team at Curious Films, who handled things sensitively, so when they finally decided to go ahead with the gig, it seemed a no-brainer to get them back in.

‘Cameras have already been following them as they put their plans in motion.’

The insider added that while Sky are expected to snap up the rights to the film, the final deal is still being negotiated. 

Daily Mail has contacted the band’s representatives for comment.

The one-off stadium show, set for next year, is expected to feature a poignant tribute to late bandmate Stephen Gately. 

Boyzone first shot to fame in 1993, formed by Ronan, Keith, Mikey, Shane and Stephen. 

Tragically, Stephen died suddenly in October 2009 at his home in Port d’Andratx, Mallorca. 

His death was later determined to have been caused by a pulmonary oedema resulting from an undiagnosed heart condition.

Earlier this month, Ronan said the response to the four-part Sky documentary Boyzone: No Matter What, released back in February, had prompted fresh discussions about the group’s future.

And last week, the band confirmed in a statement that they will reunite for one show, One For The Road: Live At Emirates Stadium in London on Saturday, June 6.

Boyzone said: ‘We’ve been truly blown away and humbled by the response to the documentary this year.’

They added: ‘The love we’ve felt from fans all over the world has inspired us to create the ultimate experience together, headlining our own stadium show.

‘The four of us can’t wait to stand together again and enjoy One For The Road.’

General sale tickets are available to buy on Friday, October 10, at 9am.

The huge 44,000 capacity stadium show will be Boyzone’s first performance together since a five-night run at the London Palladium in 2019.

Boyzone first split after seven years together in 2000 to pursue solo careers, but eventually reunited in 2007.

They toured the world with their Thank You And Goodnight farewell shows between 2018 and 2019.
