Brian McFadden will be "jealous" when former band Westlife perform their 10th anniversary show this year.Brian, who left the Irish boy band in 2004, has no regrets about pursuing a solo career but admits he is envious of their plans to celebrate a decade in the music industry with a huge concert in their homeland.He said: "I don't have any regrets leaving Westlife and I don't wish I was with them again. In saying that though, I will be envious the night they finally play the Croke Park stadium in Dublin. That is the pinnacle of any Irish artist's career." Brian added to Britain's Hello! magazine: "But I am so delighted to see the boys doing so well. They are the hardest working act I have ever seen. They deserve the success they are getting now."Last year, Westlife insisted they wouldn't be inviting Brian to join them on stage for their special show.Kian Egan said: "Brian isn't in Westlife any more. Why would he be joining us? He will be there watching us perform, kicking and screaming inside that he left the band."Nicky Byrne added: "I am sure he will want to come and cheer us on."
