On Have I got News for you Richard COLES APPEARED:
Series 8, Episode 2 (with Paul Merton) 1994
Richard was a former member of pop duo the Communards (who went on to become a critic for the Times Literary Supplement.)
On the show it was commented that Hislop looked like Jimmy (the other half of the Communards) and so Ian went on to a poor rendition of a song. The myth started then and was further promoted in Top of the Pops 2 show last week on TV where the presenter played the Communards and made reference to Ian Hislop as if it was he singing.
So hence the current question I guess and hopefully this will answer it

Ian Hislop of 'Private Eye' and 'Have I Got News For You?' fame? I don't think he was in a band, but he does look like Jimmy Somerville of the Communards.

Yeah I also checked on Wikipedia and it doesnt mention anything about him being in a band, or on imdb.com.

Are you sure he was in a band? There's nothing on Wikipedia about it....
