Nicky's Twilight Tribute To Dad... Westlife's Nicky Byrne gathered his Sligonian bandmates, some friends, and his extended family to celebrate the life of his recently deceased father. Last weekend's 'Nikki Byrne Twilight Ball' was hosted by Nicky along with siblings Gillian & Adam, and mother Yvonne... Nicky Byrne, Georgina Byrne It's a truly sad day when any young man loses his father. But one must try to turn such extreme negatives into positives and celebrate the lives of those who pass rather than linger in perpetual mourning. So we were glad to see the Byrne family putting on a united front to remember Nikki Snr with a charity ball at Citywest Hotel. Gillian Byrne, Adam Byrne, Yvonne Byrne, Nicky Byrne In aid for the Irish Heart Foundation, the 'Nikki Byrne Twilight Ball' saw a big gathering of Westlife and all their partners to support Nicky. We managed to snap them all except Kian Egan as apparently his better half Jodi Albert couldn't make the bash due to Wonderland commitments. Shane Filan, Gillian Filan Also. Suppose we should mention that Brian McFadden wasn't there either, but then again, he's all the way away in Australia and isn't a member of Westlife anymore anyways... But watch this space folks, the return of Bri Bri could be sooner rather than later we hear. Kevin McDaid, Mark Feehily Westlifer's Shane Filan and Mark Feehily were there with their respective partners Gillian Filan and Kevin McDaid. And of course Nicky was supported by his wife Georgina and her famous family on the night. David Keoghan, Cecelia Ahern Other guests on the night included David Keoghan & Cecelia Ahern, Pippa O'Connor & Brian Ormond, Kathryn Thomas, May Frisby, Gillian & Niall Quinn, Morah Ryan, Terry McCoy & Miriam Ahern, Karl Broderick & Alan Hughes, Mickey Joe Harte & wife Louise, Bertie Ahern, and many more... Kathryn Thomas So there you have it folks, the Twilight Ball 2010. And don't forget to support the Irish Heart Foundation if you can...

Pippa o connor, far too much flesh on show for november. Kathryn Thomas' dress is stunning kate November 02, 2010 - 12:21 That's not Annette Rocca, showbiz! Gillian Quinn looks great. No comment for anyone else here but just to say that I've never seen such a badly dressed crowd at a black tie event. PerfectlyImperfect November 02, 2010 - 11:00 oh lord, Pips O'Connor got that dress completely wrong, it's more 1980's c0cktail dress than anything else. and she needs to go easy on the eyebrow maintenance! Spot – Here and there November 02, 2010 - 09:29 Only in Ireland could Pippa O'Connor make it as a model. Brick – Top November 02, 2010 - 08:49 Why wasn't Thomas Connors invited to that? Sebastian Longchamps – All Hallows November 02, 2010 - 08:23 Bertie's face makes me cry. gatsby – omnipresent November 02, 2010 - 02:55 Pippa O'Connor's face makes me laugh.
