Stephen Gately, member of the Irish boy band Boyzone, died while vacationing in Spain this weekend.

Although the cause of Gately's death is publicly unknown, the members of Boyzone have released a statement saying the singer "tragically died."

He was only 33.

So, so sad.

Our thoughts go out to Stephen's family and friends during this difficult time.

      I still can't believe he's dead, I really can't.
      I grew up with boyzone, they were one of my favourite bands back in the day and I always loves Stephen. I found out he was dead yesterday morning and honestly felt like crying. It sounds really cheesey but it's like part of my childhood is dead!

      R.I.P Stephen.
      You'll be forever missed!
      You were an amazing guy!!
      xx

      Re: Manay – why the hell would you ask that when so many people are sad over him. If you don't know just google him, that "Who?" shit does not apply to dead folks that were cared about. asshole

      such a loss. he was such a big part of anyone who grew up in the 90s in Ireland listening to Boyzone. He was also one of the first boyband singers to 'come out' as well and he did it with his head held high. RIP Stephen, you'll be truly missed xxx

      FYI The People with high risk for contracting HIV in the USA according to the CDC is young Black and Latinio woman followed by homosexual and bisexual men.
      *
      In Australia it was young woman from 1995 followed by gay men over 30 but it has now turned to young gay or bi sexual men followed by woman under 30.

      Re: Aussieone – Well don't you know a lot about AIDS, trailer trash? FYI, we can all read stats till our heads explode, it doesn't change the fact that gay men (usually closeted) pass it to heterosexual women and yes, I've read that it's African American women who are now the majority carriers blah blah blah, that doesn't change the fact that gay sex is disgusting and unnatural. BTW, could you learn to spell before you reply.

      Re: kitty9

      Aids doesnt come from gay men you clown! The first case of HIV/Aids on record was a female. Believed to have eaten infected wild bush meat!
      *
      Two species of HIV infect humans: HIV-1 and HIV-2. Both species of the virus are believed to have originated in West-Central Africa and jumped species (zoonosis) from a non-human primate to humans. HIV-1 is thought to have originated in southern Cameroon after jumping from wild chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes troglodytes) to humans during the twentieth century.
      *
      It evolved from a Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIVcpz).
      *
      HIV-2, on the other hand, may have originated from the Sooty Mangabey (Cercocebus atys), an Old World monkey of Guinea-Bissau, Gabon, and Cameroon.
      *
      HIV occurs by the transfer of blood, semen, vaginal fluid, pre-ejaculate, or breast milk..

      Re: kitty9 – How rude and disrespectful you are??? While I understand everyone is entitled to their own opinion…on a blog where ppl are clearly paying their respects to someone who has died, I really don't think it is the time or place to be putting your hateful comments on here.
