Sozzled Keith Duffy has been kidnapped by a gang of friends and thrown onto a ferry to celebrate his 40th birthday.
The Boyzone star – who turned 40 today – admitted he has been drinking beer for hours in the middle of the Irish Sea.
He is currently heading off to a mystery location for a massive lads booze bash to celebrate the birthday.
And Keith laughed: “I kind of wondered, what are we doing drinking beer at this hour of the morning? But then I remembered we’re Irish – so it’s all good.”

The Dubliner said he has “no clue what time it is” or where he is being taken by a gang of friends that includes Love/Hate’s Laurence Kinlan – but is “feeling alright” about hitting 40.
And Keith said he has been giving a pass by his forgiving wife Lisa – as long as he’s back by Saturday.
He said:Â “I’m on a ferry going somewhere with a gang of lunatics going somewhere – but I’ve no idea where we’re going.
“They’ve kidnapped me, they’ve put me on a boat and I’m somewhere in the middle of the Irish Sea at the moment.

“I’ve no idea how long I’m going to be gone for. My wife just text me and said once I’m back for Saturday, everything is going to be okay.
“So I’m hoping that I’m going to get back into the country for Saturday.”
And told it sounds like a scene from Love/Hate, he laughed: “Maybe it is”.
He said: “Funnily enough Laurence Kinlan is one of the lads who kidnapped me, so maybe there’s hidden cameras somewhere. I don’t know.”
Speaking on 2FM’s Nicky Byrne Show, Keith even revealed he’s wearing his Budweiser braces – known from Boyzone’s first appearance on the Late Late Show.
“You wouldn’t believe it, I’ve actually got my Budweiser braces on today – my mother brought them out to my house last night before I got kidnapped.
“I put them on me today, I’m on a ferry in the middle of the Irish Sea wearing Budweiser braces, and drinking ‘non alcoholic’ beer, obviously.
