Cheeky choppy Olly, 31, has confirmed he is teaming up with pop group for a one-off show in the summer, where he’ll become the fourth member for some of their biggest hits.

The exciting collaboration will take place at Barclaycard presents British Summer Time in Hyde Park on 9 July – and X Factor host Olly has confessed he can’t wait to sing with Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen.

Olly told the Daily Star: “I’m going to be a special guest. I haven’t done a gig in Hyde Park before so I’m really excited.”

He added: “I love Gary and the boys. It will be a great gig.”

It comes after Olly revealed plans to put together a new Rat Pack with Gary, his showbiz bestie Robbie Williams and smooth crooner Michael Bublé.

Olly explained: “I want to do a swing album. Obviously Robbie and Michael Bublé have done them successfully. But I was thinking of doing a two-disc album where I did old songs, but on the second album I cover top hits from the last 20 years.

“I was thinking that me, Robbie, maybe Gary Barlow, Bublé, we could do a Rat Pack-style show at the Royal Albert Hall. We’ll do our own songs, covers, it could be really fun.”

Olly previously toured with Robbie, they’ve recorded duets for their respective albums, so we don’t think it would be too hard to get him on board…
