Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber's Dirty Secret Posted Thu 27 Nov 2008 12:39PM GMT by Mitch Carter in The Guestlist Andrew Lloyd Webber has admitted that he produced Timmy Mallett's 90s pop hit Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, claiming he did it because of a bet with his wife.
Speaking to the Sun, he said: "She bet that me - a ‘pompous' composer - could never produce a pop hit for the summer. It was a ridiculous idea I had to keep Madeleine quiet."
Webber owned up to producing the hit after claims that Mallett didn't sing the lead vocal began to emerge on Wednesday.
The lead vocal was instead sung by schoolteacher Everton Barnes whilst Mallett's vocals were faded into the background because they were so out of tune.
