BANGKOK : Irish pop star Ronan Keating has flown to Thailand's tsunami-hit island Phuket to shoot music videos that will air during the MTV Asia Aid show this week in Bangkok, newspapers reported.
The singer of hits such as "When You Say Nothing at All" arrived in Phuket Saturday for two days of video shoots highlighting the parts of the island that were spared the tsunami's wrath, Bangkok's The Nation newspaper reported.
The video is part of a campaign by the Tourism Authority of Thailand to lure holidaymakers back to the Andaman coast, where nearly 5,400 people were killed when the deadly waves struck on December 26.
"We should get it out of our heads what happened here and come back, and make it the place it was before. It's a magical place," Keating said in the Bangkok Post newspaper.
Keating is also filming segments to be broadcast during the MTV Asia Aid event Thursday in Bangkok, featuring stars like Americans Alicia Keys and Kelly Clarkson, Taiwanese rhythm and blues singer Jay Chou and Thailand's Tata Young.
