The group will don the campaign's famous white mustache on billboards and bus stops later this month to help promote the benefits of semi-skimmed milk as part of a balanced diet. The band, who have topped the UK charts 14 times, join other famous faces who have taken part in the campaign, including Tennis ace Andy Murray, pop group McFly and model Nell McAndrew. Launched in 2003, the campaign is a joint initiative between five of Scotland’s leading dairies and the Milk Development Council. It is also co-funded by the EU. The spokesman for the Scottish Dairy Marketing Company, the umbrella group for the five dairies, said it was "fantastic" to have Westlife involved in the campaign. “Scotland’s milk moustache campaign continues to go from strength to strength, and the addition of Westlife, who are arguably the biggest pop band in the UK at the moment gives us the opportunity to target a whole new audience," he said.

Boy band Westlife have urged teenage scottish girls not to put their lives at risk in pursuit of the perfect bodyy.
The former teen idols said fashion-conscious girls shouldnt turn their back on milk and warned that faddy diets which cut out the white stuff were "crazy"
They said milk was vital to prevent osteoporosis, a bone condition which will cause one in two women to experience a fracture at some point in their lives.
The Irish superstars said dairy products were essential to a healthy diet.
Band member Nicky Byrne said, "Its crazy to think that people,especially young girls,are putting their health at risk by following fad diets that could be damaging their health at a later date.
"ive certainly come to realise over the years that you only get out of your body what you put into it"
Westlife are the latest in a line of stars to promote the healthy drink in Scotlands,"The White Stuff"milk moustache campaign
