Katy French.........

    Without a doubt the most irritating person in Ireland which is no mean feat considering we spawned Bono.

    And now she's calling herself a feminist! Wearing a bikini on Grafton Street to whore some stupid product and making one comment about abortion does not make you a feminist Katy!

    The article about her in the Indo today shows how damaging people like Katy French are to the progression of actual feminism and womens liberation in Ireland.

    She says "I was always brought up to believe that women shouldn't fight in public...."
    Eh right thats why you've built your career on getting into spats with glenda gilson,your ex fiance, and now claire byrne.......

    She goes on to say "I would never take a dig at anyone"
    Yet within the same breath she challenges Claire Byrne (someone actually deserving of womens respect) saying "the next time you decide to pick on some dumb animal pick on someone you own IQ size claire"
    with more, "it could be that she earns less than me or that her husband fancies me"

    Then not just content in insulting Claire Byrne or any other minor Irish celeb she can shoot her mouthy gob off about,she decided to condescend the whole African continent
    "Part of the reason someone might ask me to front a story about the third world is because they know I might be the spoonful of sugar that can make the medicine of a story about the third world go down"
    The whole exploitation and raping of natural resources of an entire continent are not 'story's' Katy and If you have any sense in that supposedly high IQ you consistently boast about you will see that the African people do not need some thick Irish model to 'sugar coat' their plight for them.

    Uh come back Bono all is forgiven

    A fine rant. I can't stand her. or any of these bloody world saving modles. "I want world peace, hee hee" Who makes these morons famous?? where do they even come from, there's plenty of women better looking than them who lead normal lives and have half a brain. Bah Katy French, bah!!:mad::mad::mad:

    Don't give her attention! It only makes her stronger, and thus harder to kill! Delete this thread before she sees it and thinks she's important


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,268 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Want to end her career? Simply don't buy any paper you see a photo of her in again.

    I'm torn between agreeing fully with this post and agreeing fully with the one above that points out the fact that she has a nice bottom.

    They ALL have lovely bottoms A.C. :D

    I don't know what's more annoying...her behaviour or the fact that every time
    I open a magazine/paper she's feckin in it.
    Overexposed for no particular good reason.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,175 ✭✭✭✭Sangre


    anyone ever think she is she acting this way to get all this attention? maybe she is as smart as she says...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,166 ✭✭✭Cheeky_gal


    Sure they all have lovely bottoms don't they father!? :D

    Nah, gotta agree, Katy French wrecks my head, absolute muppet just looking for attention. Ugh!

    Get off the net and back in the kitchen, my dinner wont cook itself.

    Jaysus, yis are paid the same, get preferential treatment in lower level promotions and you can get away with working less hard and taking more sick days no questions asked, what more do you want?

    However, the Africa comment, it could have come from Bono himself :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,259 ✭✭✭starn


    Katy French is a Ho. I've had the misforune to meet her at a few functions. Someone told her I might have a few bob [I dont], and she was hanging out of me for the night.
    She also has a Chin like a platapus. Jesus I never thought Id be saying this but come back Glenda. At least she never pretened to be some sort of high brow persudo smarty pants.

    Does us all a favor and jump in the river Katy

    Yes but annoyingly its the biggest selling paper in Ireland so to keep abreast of popular opinion one must read it every now and again.

    No its not inelligence,maybe determination. She's determined to make as much money as she can and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that public spats and talking about your sex life fills papers these days. There are numerous other models who could go down this route to make some money but have instead decided to have a bit of respect in themselves and keep their personal life and personal feelings towards people private.
    How does acting like a bitch and calling people names to stay in the papers shows remarkable intelligence???

    In fairness she fairly put Claire in her box !

    I'm on Claire's side.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭ivorygal


    In fairness to Katy (something I never thought I'd say!). She is only 23 - very young, so I can understand why she might put her foot in her mouth. At 23 you don't always know the right thing to say.

    I heard her being interviewed on 2fm's Will Leahy Show - and was very surprised at how well she spoke - I'd only ever seen in the Sunday Independent before that and she came across very well on air.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 140 ✭✭CarolLorraine


    You have to feel sorry for her though after this:

    She isn't dead. Just heard on the RTE news that the HSE have released a statement saying she is still in a critical condition.

    Apparently she's actually in her early 30s. She seems a good deal older than 23/24 all right.

    She let The Star print a copy of her passport with her date of birth on it and that says she's 24...

    I have nothing against the girl, dont know anything about her so no reason to, but I dont go in for all this dont speak ill of the dead/dieing rubbish. If someone is a **** and I think they are a **** I'll say it, regardless of their situation.

    Exactly. You either hold those views or you don't.

    Didn't really know anything about the girl other than she's an Irish model so I was surprised at all the media attention her illness was getting. Sorry for her trouble and all but......meh.

    Yeah, sorry but that's nonsense. If she gets better you'll start moaning about her again because it'll be "ok". Her being ill doesn't change the person she was before becoming ill.
    Although I saw an even sillier comment on the locked thread:
    It would be a shame to kick the bucket having overdosed
    A "shame" - same meaning as "pity". The phrase one might use about the time they returned something quite expensive to the shop but it was just past the deadline for returns. A really appropriate figure of speech to use in the event of a young death.
    especially since she is not too old
    Did I say "young" referring to this girl supposedly aged 24? Sorry, my mistake. I should have described her as "not too old". Of course 24 isn't young at all, but in fairness, it's not too old. And say, if she WAS too old - i.e. early 30s - well then it wouldn't be such a "shame" if she died.
    I mean, what are all these 80-something-year-olds doing alive? :rolleyes:

    KF's illness?????? are we that naive???

    still hopes she gets better- you may dislike someone but that doesn't mean you wish them ill. That only demeans you!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Well we know it's not just as simple as her suddenly becoming ill inexplicably but we can't speculate yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,626 ✭✭✭Stargal


    Succinctly put Dudess ;)

    You're a sly bunch, digging up this old thread when the other one is closed...

    Fair enough if someone has been a complete tool to you, or they are a convicted murder, a child molester etc
    But if your opinion is based on a halfbaked perception of a media persona, or any other insignifigant connection.
    Then I think there is something fundementally missing from your sense of common decency, if you feel the need to bitch about a person in their hour of need.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,044 ✭✭✭gcgirl


    some one is ill here regardless of how they got sick in the first place! does anyone have any cop on at all ! i don't think so! like i am not a fan of Katy French but i hope she is ok, she is somebody's daughter and sister and it's about time that some of yous had the cop on to understand that!
