‘Desperate’: Ronan Keating’s Melbourne Cup performance slammed

The Melbourne Cup has come under fire from disappointed Aussies following Ronan Keating’s performance.

Keating appeared at Flemington Racecourse on Tuesday to perform alongside Aussie singer Ricki-Lee.

However, audience members watching from home quickly flocked to social media to slam the performance.

“How desperate is the #MelbourneCup2024 getting in Ronan Keating, was no one else available?” one person wrote to X.

“As an Irishman apologies to Melbourne for Ronan Keating making random noises. Ye’re welcome to keep him. We really don’t want him back,” wrote another.

“Ronan Keating is such random entertainment,” another added.

However others seemed to enjoy the performance.

“Great performance from Ronan Keating and @TheRickiLee,” one person wrote on X.

Keating earlier confirmed he and his family were here to stay for the time being.

“We are in Sydney mainly and we will be here until next year,” Keating told 9News.

“We have re-evaluated life a little bit and the plan is to spend more time here in Australia and near family, we love being here.”
