Olly Murs asks 'shall I go?' as he's booed by crowd after on-stage admission
At one point, however, the 40-year-old Essex-born star, currently on his 15 Years of Hits tour, had the crowd booing after he let his cheeky chappy side show while interacting with the audience at his sold-out gig.
Midway through his energetic set, the former X Factor contestant stopped the show to reveal a Liverpool FC sign on the big screens, which inevitably sent his Evertonian fans into a frenzy.
The chart-topping singer was in stitches during the segment where he gives his long-serving band a chance to embarrass him.
The former Voice UK judge was quick to tell his Murs Army: 'At this part of the show, I have absolutely no idea what is about to appear on that screen.'
To add to the frenzy of the booing crowd, he went on to add: 'This will probably get the biggest boo of the night. I am a Manchester United fan.'
The star was cracking up at the louder boos from the audience and jeered, 'Shall I go?'.
Thankfully for his paying fans, though, Olly stayed to perform more of his much-loved pop hits.
Olly, who shot to fame after finishing runner-up on The X Factor in 2009, has been touring the UK to commemorate 15 years of his music.
Wednesday's performance showcased hits from across his career, including Dance With Me Tonight, Dear Darlin' and Heart Skips a Beat, alongside a few of his new tunes.
Olly had a major transformation ahead of his UK tour, wowing fans on Instagram as he shared a post showing off his new physique.
His six-pack surprised his 4.8million followers as he shared that he is 'pumped and ready to get on the road'.

His tour continues with dates across the UK before concluding later this month.
Olly's Liverpool show follows his recent personal milestone of becoming a father for the first time in April 2023, when he and his wife, Amelia, welcomed their daughter, Madison.
Earlier this year, he announced that he's set to become a dad once more, as bodybuilder Amelia expects baby number two.

Keep it Rhyl: Celebrities back £20 million regeneration plan
TV stars and well-known personalities are supporting Keep it Rhyl, an ambitious scheme to revive the town through a £20 million regeneration plan over the next decade. The campaign calls on residents to support local businesses, charities, and community groups as part of the wider vision. Kimberly Hart-Simpson, a Rhyl-born actress known for Coronation Street and Celebrity Hunted, is among several celebrities who have shared messages of support on social media. Sian Lloyd (Image: Supplied f) Others include ITV journalist Carole Green, BBC presenter Sian Lloyd, and Spencer 'Big Spen' Wilding, an actor whose credits include Star Wars, Doctor Who, and Harry Potter. The campaign is led by the Rhyl Neighbourhood Board, a group of residents, entrepreneurs, councillors, and grassroots leaders. Craig Sparrow, chair of the board, said: "This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to shape the future of our town and we want everyone to be part of it. "We're calling on residents of all ages, businesses, schools, community groups, and individuals with a love for Rhyl to get involved. "Share your voice, your story, your ideas — no matter how big or small. "Film a short message, post your favourite memory, suggest something bold, or simply tell us what Rhyl means to you." Actor Spencer Wilding urged the board to focus on young people and celebrate the town's strengths. Spencer 'Big Spen' Wilding (Image: Supplied) Mr Wilding said: "I have lived in the area all my life and feel it's important we get behind the regeneration programme, celebrate the best of Rhyl and do it for the next generation – let's shine a light on Rhyl, even stronger than ever." Mr Sparrow said the campaign is about more than infrastructure and investment. He added: "This campaign is about more than buildings and investment, it's about pride, connection, and community. "It's about celebrating our past while building a future we can all be proud of. "Every voice counts. Every message matters. "Together, we can 'Keep it Rhyl' and make sure this £20 million regeneration strategy truly reflects the hopes and dreams of the people who live and work here." The £20 million investment comes from the UK Government's Plan for Neighbourhoods programme. The Rhyl Neighbourhood Board will develop a 10-year vision and an initial investment plan to identify and prioritise projects.

Labour is robbing us in broad daylight with extortionate council tax hikes – but I know the solution
THERE is much to heed from the wit and wisdom of The Inbetweeners, the late Noughties TV series that dared to show teenagers in all their puerile glory. I still can't even look at a gentleman carrying a briefcase without stifling the urge to scream 'Briefcase w****r!' at him. 5 5 So James 'JayFromTheInbetweeners' Buckley's F-bomb-laced council tax outburst on his The Buckleys podcast, which he does with wife Clair, had my attention. James is the latest citizen to have been informed by his local council — understood to be Chelmsford, Essex — that he will now have to pay to have his 'green waste' removed. In a deliciously expletive-fuelled rant that would make his preposterous alter ego blush with pride, he seethed: 'What do you mean you're now charging? 'Don't f***ing start that s**t. We were always f***ing paying for it, it's called council tax. Why are you fing taking more money off me and doing less? 'And everyone up and down the country is saying the exact same fing thing — what the f*** is going on?' Hear hear! With one unfiltered flare-up James, 37, who, despite his generous facial furniture still resembles the infantile gobs**te he famously portrayed, has turned this spotlight on one of the most egregious public swindles of our time. Council tax is the new Dick Turpin, robbing us in broad daylight each year on the streets where we live. I'm sure you are painfully aware of how much your bill rose this year. I know I am. Haringey Council whacked mine up by 4.8 per cent. I was lucky. Some councils begged the Government to allow it to screw even more out of people than the supposed five per cent rise threshold. Free data roaming abroad and HUGE council tax bill reductions Windsor and Maidenhead Council went as far as to ask for an outrageous 25 per cent before that was over-ruled and they had to make do with fleecing locals with a mere nine per cent rise. We particularly hate council tax increases because all around us our streets seem to be getting ever more pot-holed while our bins increasingly overflow with crap. But we are stuck, beholden to cough up with the threat of a three-month jail sentence if we stop paying then refuse to clear our debts. So the rises will increase and, with a Labour government at the helm, don't be surprised if they go up even more, despite them flirting with the idea of freezing rates when they wanted us to vote for them. Yet it doesn't have to be like this. Yes, many councils and their often ludicrously paid chiefs are utterly incompetent, which has not helped their financial positions. A quarter could go bust But the reason every council is grasping for every penny it can get is ultimately down to one enormous and ever-growing cost: Social care. Local authorities have been charged with handling social care since the late 1940s when the NHS was set up to deal with the cradle-to-grave medical matters for the then-50million people living in Britain. Back then the average life expectancy was 66 for men and 70 for women. Fast forward to 2025 and that has now rocketed to 79 for men and 83 for women. 5 Of course, the longer we live, the more meals on wheels and home visits we need and the more residential centres need to be built. The list goes on and on, hoovering up more and more cash, up to 70 per cent of some councils' budgets. And in an absurd state of affairs, town halls' social care policies are mostly dictated by Westminster, so councils are forced to pay for and administer policies they have precious little power to control. It is hard to see this faltering system continuing without a wholesale collapse of the entire local government structure. Indeed, a recent Local Government Association survey revealed that up to a quarter of all English councils could go bust by the end of next year. One way to avoid this would be to make social care nationally funded. Take the revenue- raising responsibilities for it away from councils and just let them get on with administering it. And collecting James Buckley's lawn clippings. MOLLY IS TWO MUCH MY heart goes out to poor old Molly-Mae Hague. She's been having an absolute mare. As she admitted: 'I haven't done one social, fun thing. I haven't a life.' Well, Molly, I hate to break it to you but I'm not surprised you've had a bummer summer – someone has been having all the fun by pretending to be you. That's right, an exact replica of you has been spotted having a whale of a time enjoying five-star trips to Dubai, Paris and St Tropez over the past few months. This devious doppelganger was also spotted lapping up the luxury at Wimbledon, gadding about with stars like Rebel Wilson in the VIP suite. And on Thursday your lookalike was spotted at Manchester airport with a carbon copy of your fella, Tommy, heading off for yet another holiday. That should have been you having all those larks, not someone who looks and sounds exactly like you. If I were you I'd get on to your lawyer and issue a cease and desist letter to this outrageous imposter . . . whoever she may be. HAD a maddening experience this week with Yodel, who failed to deliver a parcel three straight days in a row despite claiming it was 'out for delivery'. By day four they gave up and insisted they could not find my address despite the clear road sign and a gigantic number on my door. They then insisted I send them one of those bizarre 'what3words' phrases to identify my apparently invisible abode. It took every fibre of my being not to reply with the three words: 'Yodel F***ing Sucks'. Cruz that meant to be, Becks? CRUZ BECKHAM looked like he'd gone from nepo baby to nappy baby as he posed aboard one of the two yachts his warring family are currently on, with a giant bulge in his shorts. It was one hell of a sight for sore eyes, but then Beckham minor went a step further, ribbing his old man by aping his legs akimbo Boss underpants ad, inset, by striking the same pose in a pair of £410 trunks. Brother Romeo summed up everyone's reaction, commenting on the shot with a simple, 'Jesus!' I bet Brooklyn was itching to pile in with a cheeky quip of his own until he remembered he's in the middle of some tedious row with his folks. I like that this ubiquitous family are always taking the mick out of each other. It makes their endless social media humblebrags easier to stomach. HELP YOUR SHELF POPPED to a local shop near work the other day and was somewhat surprised to see 'top shelf' titles among its magazine selection. And there was me thinking the traditional jazz mag had been all but wiped out by the onslaught of online porn. Some of these titles looked a little on the dated side, but there were enough on display to suggest an industry still, ahem, hard at it. And then it occurred to me, with the market having suddenly entered a state of flux, these publishers are simply playing the long game. Because, as of July 25, porn sites are obliged to gather details of, er, 'users' in order to verify that they are old enough to view adult material. The move has resulted in a huge drop in visitors, as many shy away from officially registering their carnal proclivities. One site, XHamster, has reported an 85 per cent slump in UK traffic, with the firm declaring: 'Our userbase has essentially vanished in a day.' Expect long queues at the newsagent in the coming days. lI'M glad The Naked Gun reboot is getting rave reviews as I saw a trailer during a trip to see Superman and it looked abysmal. But I was never worried that Liam Neeson wouldn't be able to muster the comic timing required to follow Leslie Nielsen's brilliant Frank. Not a year goes by when I don't play the clip from Ricky Gervais' brilliant Life's Too Short, where an exquisitely earnest Liam decides he wants to get into comedy. If you've seen it you'll know how hilarious it is and, if not, Google it, then hold on to your sides. Another woke warning ANOTHER day another 'trigger warning' slapped on a TV show millions once watched without taking any offence. This time it's Minder's turn, with delicate viewers warned the Eighties show, left, may contain phrases that could cause them to self-combust with fury such as, er, 'pull a bird'. People always get hot under the collar about these warnings but personally I'd like to see more – as many as possible in fact. The more woke warnings a show contains, the more I know it's something I'll enjoy watching.

Rebecca Loos' life became 'hell' as David Beckham's 'blossomed' after 'affair'
Rebecca Loos has hit out after her world was turned upside down following the scandal she faced involving David Beckham – but his life 'blossomed' in the wake of it Rebecca Loos has hit out, claiming it was"unjust" how she suffered the consequences following her "affair" with David Beckham. The former glamour model who worked as David's personal assistant in the early 2000s sensationally claimed she and the Manchester United legend had an affair with one another. At the time, Beckham, 50, branded the allegations as "ludicrous" but never sought legal assistance to challenge the claims or any interviews that Loos gave. Following the allegations, Rebecca, 48, went on to find fame as a reality star, appearing on The Farm, Celebrity Love Island, and X Factor, before eventually turning her back on fame and finding peace as a yoga teacher in Norway. Now, she has spoken about how her life completely changed after the allegations were made public and the levels of scrutiny she faced, while David went on to become a global icon. She was branded the "sleazy senorita" and faced claims that she attempted to ruin David's marriage with Spice Girls legend, Victoria Beckham. It comes after Cruz Beckham 'steals' his dad's tiny white trunks and family have epic response. Rebecca is set to appear on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, which sees her in a completely different light, stripped back from everything she knows. It comes after the Beckham's launched a huge Netflix documentary about their lives away from the cameras. "That took me completely by surprise," she said of the Beckham documentary, adding: "Let's call it what it was: him trying to portray an image of perfection that was nothing like reality. "It felt unjust that my life was pretty hell, and his life kept going and kept blossoming. I've been accused of being a liar. I've had a lifetime of opinions around me, and I've definitely developed thick skin. "I think the public opinion now has softened, at least from what I'm gathering since the documentary came out with the Beckhams a couple of years ago. I think it is now because thanks to social media, there is a whole different following out there, which is a double-edged sword." But while she feels it's unjust, she admits some of the blame lies with her. In a press pack, Rebecca said: "I think I've definitely taken most of the blame – rightly so. It was part of my life. He was older than me, he was my boss. But I'm not someone to be silenced when I've been wronged, and that documentary took absolutely no responsibility. "When he said, 'It was so horrible to see my wife suffer,' I thought, 'Mate, think twice about the things you do.'" Like all the recruits, Rebecca faced a grilling in the show's Mirror Room. Jason Fox and Chris Oliver questioned her motives for being on the show before asking how she felt about her affair with Beckham now that she's had the time to reflect on it. In his Netflix 2023 documentary, Beckham didn't name Rebecca and failed to take any accountability. He just said: "I don't know how we got through it in all honesty," on a tricky time when he lived in Madrid. On being asked about Beckham on the Channel 4 show and what she feels about how things have played out, she added: "I was quite guarded at the beginning. I was trying to be guarded because it's not something I want to talk about the whole time. But at the same time I also wanted to be honest with them, so they were really good at getting through to me. "They're obviously professionals at this. I don't shy away from what I've been through, and I don't shy away from the decisions that I've made. They have shaped me into who I am, and I've really learnt a lot from the mistakes that I've made in my life and the things that I've done. And I really do think that being truthful is the only way to go in life. I'll stand by that forever. "It takes a lot of courage to tell the truth and to own up to mistakes that you have made, mistakes and times in your life you're not proud of. And it's very easy to just brush them under the carpet and move on. That's like the coward's way, I think, of living."
