Scouse girl upsets Mancs

Not really sure where this should go so I'll put it here and see.

It's from a report in today's Daily Express.

Rocker Bryan Adams embarrassingly faced a chorus of boos as he attempted to perform one of his most famous hits in Manchester.

The Canadian singer, 47, chose a willing member of the audience to duet with him on his well-known hit, "baby, when you're gone" (the Mel- C one) during his show at the MEN arena.

However, with Manchester United having just been knocked out of the Champions league while arch-rivals Liverpool progressed to the final in Greece, his choice of singing partner proved to be a faux pas.

"Being Canadian, Adams probably didn't appreciate the bitter rivalry between Man. utd and Liverpool," says one observer. "Unluckily for him, he chose a Liverpudlian woman to sing with him and she wasted no time rubbing United fans' noses in it, chanting, "ATHENS HERE WE COME!"

The mood in the Mancunian audience immediately turned very hostile and the place was suddenly filled with deafening boos. Adams didn't quite understand what he'd inadvertently caused, but looked embarrased."

Well in girl!

There's a vid of it on youtube as well!
