I'm from peru and I'm a fan of westlife, at first I thought that in my country we were just fans of westlife but in reality we were a lot ...................... .. we want is more westlife then toured South America and reaches peru ......... I think the whole group is the maximum but I like most is shane that besides being a good singer is very handsome ................... westlife is the best band in the world ..........
