    Yep he was drunk, he was an idiot but I couldn't help but feel slightly sorry for him. The majority of people I know have been in that kind of a state but luckily not on television.

    Had the pleasure of a few, a fair few, pints with Niall Quinn. Gentleman, 24 carat decent fellah. Lots of people coming up for chat, photos etc and nothing was a hassle. Just like one of the lads, except he's loaded and married to a former model...a former international soccer player....a great minor hurler...was actually in Saipan when it kicked off with RK....

    According to a relative of mine, he was also something of an ass last time he was on Graham Norton.

    I think he was equally trigger-happy with the lever for the red chair on his previous appearance on the Graham Norton Show. His appearance at the weekend was ridiculous though. It wasn't even "so bad, it's funny". He just came across as rude and bored.

    I don't know if it really counts as celebrity, but I met Twink a few years ago, and wasn't impressed with how she treated some people involved in the service industry.

    Having met Mark Wahlberg in person i found him to be a gent. Very friendly and obliging to people. The graham norton show he was a bit merry and frisky probably cringed the next day seen it. Who has never made a fool of themselves with drink...

    I know he seemed to get a bit of flack over that. If people really think he was that out of it they should look up some of the late Oliver Reed's drunken tv interviews over the years. :pac:

    Doesn't Mark Wahlberg have a reputation for being a bit of a dick in the past? I vaguely remember something about him going to prison for assaulting someone and leaving them blind.

    Yeah, his Wikipedia page doesn't seem to paint him in the best light. Racism, unprovoked attacks, attempted murder...

    I also remember reading in interview with him where he said he was offered one of the roles in Brokeback Mountain, but turned it down because it was "creepy". :confused: Kind of a strange way to describe it...

    Rudest = Eddie Jordan, saw him at a Cry Before Dawn concert in The Olympia 10 years ago and he did not have kind words to say for someone (not me !!) who asked him for his autograph. Now I know celebs get p**sed off with requests of such nature but the way in which he responded was not very nice at all

    Nicest = toss-up between 80s star Paul Young and Bono, met both each of them very personable

    Met Roger Waters in a service station after midnight in England on a journey back to the ferry. i was half asleep and couldn't decide which bar of chocolate to pick so he suggested i avoid the sweets and try a certain bag of nuts and dried fruits. took me a few minutes to realise who he was after i left. have to say he was right about the snack they kept me going for the whole journey home.

    I should mention he was a gent and not a bit rude :)
    one of the best posts ever

    He was a friend of my Granny. At her 80th birthday party he sat in the corner looking miserable and pissed off. Anyone who tried to talk to him was promptly given the "Dont you know who I am" speech and told to piss off.

    No way! I met him in a pub years ago. He was on his own having a cup of tea and i asked him if he minded if i had a quick chat with him and he said no problem. Even recorded a new voicemail message for me on my phone :)

    Brian Cowen, such a (c)rude person. I ended up sitting beside him, being the only other person in the box when others went to the balcony. He snotted and hawked and piggily read his paper beside me, picking away at his snout, glancing under his eyes at me and making a point of NOT saying even a normal civil hello. Not that I courted greetings, believe me, you'd take out a germ proof tongs if he wanted a handshake. He was just a pompous, ignorant toad. This was just before the little darling became Taoiseach.

    I met Dana on a plane waiting for the loo, a rude guy barged ahead of me and my 3 year old, and she let me bring my son in to the other loo before her. She said a few choice words to the queue jumper too. She was really a lovely kind person (to me anyway).

    The Band Emotional Fish picked me up in their white van on the N11 when my car broke down years ago, what can I say, brilliant group of guys.

    I met IRA man Nessun Quinlivan, never had heard of him before, he was asking for directions down the canal and as we were going the same way, we had a lovely chat and laughs for about 20 mins till I got to my bus stop. About a week after that he was on the news being arrested in Dublin, carrying a revolver (never noticed it) and that was when I worked out who he was. :)

    And I read the palms (or pretended to) of the French rugby team. They were easily led.
