Olly Murs asks ‘shall I go?’ as he’s booed by crowd after on-stage admission
The pop star asked the crowd if he should leave.
Olly Murs brought the house down at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena this week with a performance that left fans both emotional and dancing along.
At one point, however, the 40-year-old Essex-born star, currently on his 15 Years of Hits tour, had the crowd booing after he let his cheeky chappy side show while interacting with the audience at his sold-out gig.
Midway through his energetic set, the former X Factor contestant stopped the show to reveal a Liverpool FC sign on the big screens, which inevitably sent his Evertonian fans into a frenzy.
The chart-topping singer was in stitches during the segment where he gives his long-serving band a chance to embarrass him.
The former Voice UK judge was quick to tell his Murs Army: ’At this part of the show, I have absolutely no idea what is about to appear on that screen.’
To add to the frenzy of the booing crowd, he went on to add: ‘This will probably get the biggest boo of the night. I am a Manchester United fan.’

Thankfully for his paying fans, though, Olly stayed to perform more of his much-loved pop hits.
