We're thankful this headline is not true

Times of London story about the personal life of England football manager Sven-Goran Eriksson:

How Sven uses Chris De Burgh to woo women

Chris De Burgh is the amazingly durable warbler and long-time resident of Ireland, and is widely known either for the song "Lady in Red" or for possibly having rigged the Miss Ireland and Miss World 2003 contests in favour of his daughter.

But anyway, back to the matter at hand. It turns that we don't actually know whether Sven's dates would involving dimming the lights and playing "Lady in Red" -- he's just portrayed as doing so in a Swedish play based loosely on his life. So hopefully it's not true -- it's not possible for celebrities to be that cheesy, right?
