Guess what?: Franda grew up with Westlife

JP/Triwik Kurniasari

Presenter Efranda “Franda” Stefanus wanted to relive the good old days by attending former Westlife singer Shane Filan’s “Right Here” concert on Tuesday. The group disbanded in 2012.

“I’m really a big fan of Westlife – a real die-hard fan,” she said as quoted by kompas.com.

The finalist of MTV VJ Hunt 2007 said she once skipped school in Malang, East Java, for two days in order to go to a Westlife concert in Jakarta. Her father, who did not have the heart to let Franda go alone, accompanied her to the capital city by car and watched the concert with her.

Franda said she did not really follow Filan’s music.

“I am more into Westlife’s first, second and third albums,” she said, adding that the tracks in first album had stayed in her mind.
