Stereophonics Kelly Jones on getting promises out of Wayne Rooney
Stereophonics frontman Kelly Jones has revealed he made Wayne Rooney make a few promises before he would sing at the footballer’s wedding last week.
Wayne’s now-wife Coleen McLoughlin had arranged for Kelly to perform at the couple’s extravagant wedding reception as a surprise for her new husband, who is a big fan of the Welsh band.
Speaking after the event on Thursday, Kelly told the Sun: “My opening line was, ‘So Wayne, your missus rang and asked us to do this’. I said, ‘On one condition - as long as he plays for Leeds [United] next season and changes his nationality to Welsh. Can I get that in writing before I start?’
“Me and Adam, who plays in the band, played an hour of hits and requests. Wayne and his family sang every word. He loved it. It was a good crack.”
