Wayne Rooney and Coleen McLoughlin have hired a club singer from Manchester for their wedding entertainment.

According to The Mirror, Wayne Allen, a local newspaper Search For A Star winner, will perform hits by Billy Paul, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and The Temptations at the reception.

He will apparently perform Luther Vandross's 'Always and Forever' when they share their first dance.

An insider at Allen's company said: "There were a few eyebrows raised when it emerged that Wayne had landed such a prestigious spot.

"He's a lovely lad, and he's got a great voice, but this will be the biggest performance he's done by a long way."

Allen's previous biggest performance was at the wedding of Kerry Katona and Mark Croft.
