Viral Video of the Day: Kolo Toure Exposes Yaya's Awful Taste in Music

Michael CummingsMar 28, 2012

Yaya Toure's heart will go on. And he will always love… Whitney Houston?

Yes, apparently so. Either that, or he's been the victim of one very awesomely executed prank in the top-flight's best sibling rivalry.

As the fine folks over at Who Ate All the Pies pointed out yesterday, Kolo Toure revealed/exposed his brother Yaya's poor taste in music during a video interview on Manchester City's website.

The shocking details: Yaya Toure, the 29-year-old midfielder who stands 6'3" and weighs more than you do, listens to Celine Dion and Whitney Houston.

Dion, you'll recall, performed the 1997 classic "My Heart Will Go On" for the blockbuster movie Titanic. For all I knew, her career ended after that, but apparently she lives on in the hearts of burly Ivorian midfielders everywhere.

And as for Houston, it's probably still too soon to joke on her. So I'll let SNL do it.

This has to be a prank. There's no other explanation.

Kolo is too happy to tell the interviewer (and, really, how does one get a job riding around with footballers in their cars?) all about Yaya's questionable musical tastes.

But while Kolo can rag on Yaya's taste in music—which, if true, resembles that of an 11-year-old suburban American girl, in 1992—I'd like to see any of you tell him about it.

I'll get the icepack ready.
