Re: Celeb Spotting

Mario Rosenstock in The Fitzwiliam with a fine looking bird on Friday night

He went in there for a quiet glass on champagne and didnt expect over a hundred drunken fuckers coming in asking him to do Mourinho - he left within minutes

Spotted ‘the Mullet’ Shane Byrne at Dublin Airport last Thursday morning.

Ah, what a cracking thread this is. jack, come on - you know the score here. We need more information. What was he wearing? Who was he with? What flight was he getting?

Mick Galway walking up Grafton yesterday about 12.45pm on his mobile phone and wearing a suit with no tie and the top button of his shirt open. Talking casually rather than earnestly.

Joe Duffy this day last week coming out of the Swedish Food Company on Upper Baggot Street again just before 1pm. I am told his radio show starts around 2pm or 3pm so I presume he polished off his panini and was then on his way out to Montrose.

Afraid I don’t have any Bandage as I was hammered and don’t remember what he was wearing. It was 5.30 am and I had been drinking all night before I caught a flight at 6.20am. Please feel free to delete this spot if you feel it doesn’t have enough info!

Also Joe Duffy’s show starts at 1.45 and ends at 3.

Clare hurler Niall Gilligan was standing right beside us in the new Flannery’s pub in Limerick on Satuday night. He was accomponied by a hot bird and I reckon he had a few pints on him!! He did a ridiculously funny dance to the Scissors sisters ‘I don’t fee like dancing’.

Not sure whether you’d consider GAA players as celebrities but seeing as this thread has gone quite of late I’m claiming it!

This is really scraping the bottom of the barrel but I spotted RTE news reporter Will Goodbody boarding the 19a bus this morning. The only way I recognised him is that he has a strange looking head which actually looks bigger on the telly. He kept dropping stuff like his phone on the way onto the bus and his bag on the way off. He alighted on South Great Georges Street and due to the slack nature of the traffic at the time I failed to see his next move as the bus sped away

Daire O’Brien presenter of The Hub on Setanta Sports and Evening Herald columnist. Outside Smyths in Malahide on Thursday around four thirty p.m. (must be the third time I have spotted him in Malahide. First time to record it). Dressed smart casual and on a mobile phone.

Never knew he wrote in the Evening Herald - lowering my esteem for his as we speak. Nice to see a “smart casual” dresscode in evidence though, even while off air. Was he drinking in Smyth’s do we know?

Friday, 22 Dec - Nuala Carey, RTE weather forecaster in Kehoe’s of South Anne Street. Got caught pointing out the spot to my comrades by her sister. One of the lads then scored the sister (who was a munter but that’s beside the point).

Saturday, 23 Dec - Wexford Senior hurlers Diarmuid ‘Gizzy’ Lyng and Eoin Quigley in The Crown Bar, Wexford. Eoin was wearing converse casual trainers, blue jeans and a polo shirt (tucked in). Gizzy was wearing blue jeans and a casual shirt (long sleeved and not tucked in). We spoke briefly but I can’t confirm or deny what was said. Also spotted erstwhile Wexford hurler and footballer Paul Carley but it was too brief a spot to note who he was with or what fashion trends he was sporting.

Saturday, 23 Dec - Wexford hurling legend and now Director of Hurling Georgie O’Connor in The Centenary Stores of Wexford (back bar). I was a bit overawed by this spot but did note what appeared to be a nice pair of slacks and a pullover (draped over the shoulders).

Saturday, 23 Dec - Irish Life Investment Managers Actuary Shane Power in The Centenary Stores of Wexford (back bar). Sporting quite frankly what is a ridiculous hair cut.

Did Shane say hello or had you left the pub by the time he was uttering the second syllable?

Finally got one, though it was tame. Shane Ryan of Dublin senior football and formerly senior hurling fame. In the Portmarnock Hotel on Christmas eve. Think it was a shirt and maybe even slacks. He was complaining about the distance to walk from the bar to the jacks and I tell you he wasn’t wrong.

Irish Ladies’ Hockey Captain Linda Caulfield in The Centenary Stores (niteclub rather than back bar) last night. Wearing a blue jeans and white blouse (tight) combination and staring intently at Bandage for most of the evening.

Spotted and tailed for 5 minutes former footballer and current jack ass Stan Collymore today, at an undisclosed location. He wore a black ensemble, comprising of knee length shorts and standard shirt. He completed the out fit with black sandles and accessorised ratherly badly with a pair of sunglasses.

He was walking with a girl, while no stunner clearly could do better. He came to my attention as he was trying to explain a romantic dalliance he had with some bird a few months back and the bird today was none too impressed. Found it quite entertaining to listen to him squirm.

He’s a big fook too by the way.

Spotted Jayne Middlemiss of Top of the Pops and Celebrity Love Island fame in “In” in Dalkey yesterday. She was sporting pants tucked into boots which I’m not a fan of at all. She was with some poofter that looked as if he’d just stepped out of Topman.

Not a celebrity but BT included him before

I saw that tosser Barry Egan on Friday walking outside Liberty Hall chatting on his moblile. I stood up and wanted to barge into him but he swerved away just as I got ready to hit

Another cracker, Ex England cricketer and A Question of Sport team captain David Gower. He was wearing a grey outfit, nicely complementing his hair colour, with a rather femine back pack. He also had the face of a man that was none too impressed by the current state of Pom cricket.

Hate to split hairs but I am in an angry mood after OFAH argument earlier - Gower was actually captain on They Think Its All Over which must surely go down as one of the worst shows in history

Had a bumper christmas for celebrity spotting. On 23rd December nearly got run over by Bryan “Dobbo” Dobson from RTE News on Dawson st. He was marching down the street like he owned the place and gave me a very dirty look when i got in his way.

Then later that afternoon spotted Labour Party leader Pat Rabbitte in Avoca Handweavers doing some Christmas shopping with what looked like his daughter. After leaving there i was walking back up Grafton St and spotted former Irish second row Leo Cullen walking down, hard to miss him, he is a massive cnut.

At airport then on Jan 30 spotted Michael Flately’s ex missus Lisa Murphy. Tiny little blonde thing…fit as fook.

Then on January 2nd i had an unbelievable spot in Banana Republic on 5th Avenue in NYC. I was sitting down trying on a pair of shoes when none other than Tony fookin Fenton from Today FM sat down beside me to try on shoes. He is a tiny little fat fook and he was with some bird who was about 2 feet taller than him and about ten years younger. She was well bet down though.

Then on the plane on the way home Brian Kennedy was on the same flight, very cute smile!

That’s impressive celeb spotting by cullyeile.

January 10th - Wednesday at approximately 2.10pm:

That Russian bint that’s married to Leo in Fair City on Lower Baggot Street up by Doheny&Nesbitt’s pub wearing a long white coat and accompanied by an older lady who was also blond and looked foreign. A mother or aunt I would imagine.

December 28 2006. Town Bar and Grill. The Edge and Bone-O were at the table beside me.
