Simon Cowell recently shared a shocking revelation about his past encounter with a member of the popular boyband Five from the 90s. In an upcoming documentary produced by Louis Theroux called Boybands Forever, some of the biggest popstars from the 90s and 00s open up about the dark side of fame and how it turned their dreams into a nightmare.
One of the members of Five, Scott Robinson, recalls a moment where he had reached his breaking point and went to his record label, including Simon Cowell, to quit the band. However, he was met with resistance and told that he was not allowed to leave. In a fit of desperation, Scott ended up getting into a physical altercation with the management, with Simon even trying to stop him.
Scott confesses, "I'd lost my mind. They had to call security and carry me out of the building kicking and screaming like a wild dog." Simon also remembers the incident, revealing that they were on the verge of a fist fight. But despite Scott's desperate attempts to leave the band, he was unable to do so at the time.
His bandmate Ritchie also appears in the documentary and shares the truth behind his public breakup with pop princess Billie Piper. In 1999, the tabloids splashed a story about Ritchie spending the night with another woman while the band was in Russia. However, it turns out that the women were paid and planted by the tabloid, hoping to create a scandalous story.
Ritchie explains, "We were each other's safe place. It was very much young love in a very strange environment, in a very strange life." He also reveals that the headline "Five star Ritchie undid my skirt with his teeth" was fabricated, causing immense pain to someone he loved. He regrets his mistake and acknowledges that his actions ultimately ended their relationship.
The documentary also features members from other popular boybands such as Take That, East 17, Westlife, Blue, 911, and Damage. Each of them shares their own struggles with fame and the constant pressure from the media to maintain a certain image.
Boybands Forever is set to air on BBC Two on November 16th, and it promises to offer a glimpse into the dark side of the music industry.
