Olly Murs was one of the headline acts at the star-studded Marchella housewarming party thrown by his pals Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan last month.<\/p>\n

In an exclusive chat with OK!<\/b>, the Troublemaker singer revealed he'd been asked to perform as a favour to Mark – but thinks his friend was having too much of a good time to remember the show! <\/p>\n

Mark and Michelle hosted the big bash to celebrate them finally moving into their \u00a33.5 million Essex mansion at the end of August.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t even think he remembers me being there,\u201d he told us. \u201cAsk him, \u2018Did Olly Murs do a gig at your house?\u2019 because he won\u2019t remember."<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone was so drunk and, to be fair, I actually told him, the great thing about doing a gig at midnight is no one will remember in the morning.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mark and Olly have been friends for years, with Mark attending Olly's three-day wedding event on the exclusive Osea Island \u2013 which they reportedly hired for more than \u00a335,000 per night \u2013 complete with fairground rides and a music festival.<\/p>\n

The Voice UK judge says former Towie star Mark used his Essex charm to persuade him to perform on the night. <\/p>\n

Recalling the phone call from Mark, Olly said: \u201cHe\u2019s a cheeky little bugger because basically I was on tour and he said, \u2018Murs, mate, you know I love you, you\u2019re my brother, and I know you\u2019ve got a show that night, but is there any chance you can come to my house and do a gig for me?\u2019\u201d Olly says. \u201cAnd Michelle said, \u2018We\u2019d love you to come.\u2019"<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I literally jumped on my tour bus and we drove to his house in Essex and then I had to go from there to Plymouth overnight \u2013 honestly!\u201d<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The party was celebrating the completion of the couple's new house, which has taken a over two years and cost a reporter \u00a33.5 million.<\/p>\n

After knocking down an existing \u00a31.3 million home on the plot, the couple submitted plans for a much grander mansion complete with home gym, outdoor swimming pool, granny annexe and sprawling gardens.<\/p>\n

Going all out, the couple, who married in 2017, have also installed his-and-hers bespoke dressing room and cinema room and decorated the plush pad in neutral tones with marble furniture.<\/p>\n

Mark has described the end result as their \u201cdream home\u201d, and has been sharing the build progress on his @wrightyhome Instagram page with his 570,000 followers \u2013 including celebrity fans Natasha Hamilton and Alison Hammond .<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
