Singing priests in heaven after signing €1.2m deal

THREE priests from the north yesterday prepared for global superstardom by signing a £1 million (€1.2m) contract with music giant Sony BMG.

Father Eugene O’Hagen, 48, his brother Martin, 45, and their old school friend David Delargy, 44, who all hold parishes in the diocese of Down and Connor, sealed the deal on the steps of London’s Westminster cathedral.

The singing trio, known as the Priests, said they would give the money they make to charity.
