What happened

Michael Bublé says his ‘aphrodisiac’ gigs lead to baby booms By Jack Guy, CNN (CNN) — Michael Bublé has said that his “romantic” concerts result in a population boom in the cities where he plays.

Why it matters

The Canadian singer appeared on the BBC’s Good Morning Ulster radio show on Wednesday to discuss his upcoming six-date tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland, and joked that it would result in a spike in the birth rate.

Common ground

“I don’t know what the population of those places are, but I know that nine months after I play those outdoor gigs they’re going to double,” he said.

Perspective signals

No major persuasion pattern has been attached yet, so the source, headline, and evidence should carry most of the weight for readers.

Claim 1: “Michael Bublé has said that his “romantic” concerts result in a population boom in the cities where he plays.”
CORROBORATED
The claim that Michael Bublé joked about his concerts causing a population boom is supported by multiple web search results. One source quotes him joking that the population sizes will 'double' after his shows, and another source attributes the 'aphrodisiac' gig joke to him. Since multiple independent web searches report this specific joke, it is corroborated.

Claim 2: “The Canadian singer appeared on the BBC’s Good Morning Ulster radio show on Wednesday to discuss his upcoming six-date tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland, and joked that it would result in a spike in the birth rate.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim specifies that Michael Bublé appeared on the BBC’s Good Morning Ulster radio show to discuss his six-date UK and Ireland tour and joked about a resulting spike in the birth rate. While Claim 2 confirms the tour details and the general joke about baby booms, the specific details (BBC's Good Morning Ulster, date, and context) are not independently corroborated by the provided evidence. The evidence only confirms the general joke and the tour details, but not the specific radio appearance.
