An England World Cup Star Has Named B*Witched As His Musical Guilty Pleasure

In the summer of 1998, Irish girl group B*Witched were catapulted towards international recognition upon the release their pop classic C’est La Vie. We were proud of punch here in Ireland as Edele, Keavy, Lindsay and Sinéad brought their trad-infused earworm to global audiences and there was one little lad over in Sheffield who had a particular grá for the ladies. 

England full-back Kyle Walker has this week taken part in a lie detector test for Unscriptd in which a number of sordid details were revealed, most notably his propensity to relieve himself while in the team shower. But that’s a conversation for another day. 

In the interview with Amelia Dimoldenberg, Walker also spilled that he was a fan of B*Witched back in the day before breaking into a rendition of the aforementioned tune. The host then quite rightly requests that he stops even though the 28-year-old mentions in another part of the interview that he fancies himself as a decent singer. 

Here’s the video in full with the B*Witched conversation coming up around the 1:40 mark…
