And in other news the world has lost yet another eligible bachelor.Prologue Fans and media alike learned today during an appearance on MTV’s own Total Request Live that Shane Filan, 1/5 of the highly successful Irish boyband Westlife, is married. After some rumored speculation, Filan, 22 has confirmed that he has indeed wed US 21-year-old pop sensation Aliesa Montaine. Filan went on further to detail that the pair were in fact married only two days ago in Las Vegas, proceeding their separate attendance at the Billboard Music Awards for which they were both nominated. The announcement of the pair’s nuptials has come as a shock and surprise to many, as there was no indication that the pair had even been romantically tied. Montaine late last year parted ways with boyfriend Christian Burns of British group BB Mak, while Filan has adamantly proclaimed his single status. Though this is the first marriage for both, this marks the second marriage and second romantic pairing of popstars for Westlife. Bandmate Bryan McFaddan and Kerry Katona, previously of girlgroup Atomic Kitten were married last September. Undoubtedly this has been a hectic week for Aliesa, as she not only got hitched, but her second single “Dangerous Misleading”, from her debut album “Indecision”, became the first song this year to top the US Billboard Hot 100 for more than five weeks. That’s all for this edition of MTV News Brief, stay tuned for more at ten to the hour every hour right here on MTV. Chapter
