    Why is she now all over the papers why would her opinions or pics of where she was for a night out appeal to anyone, she lost her father and it must be very tough but why do rte and independant newspapers push her onto the public.

    As in Gerry Ryan's daughter?

    Because she's trying to get a career up and running, and being talked about and featured in papers and stuff is the way celebrities and public figures get a career up and running...

    Pretty simples really.

    Has she been on her knees.

    Good looking girls . All the best to them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 285 ✭✭not_xanthor


    She was being pushed onto the public long before her father died.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    Nt bad lookers alright, I'd give them a shot at the title anyway, mandatory defence!

    Would love to say 'The Ryan Line is open' just as she spreads them :D

    Why the fcuck should she be on the telly or in the papere just because she's related to Gerry Ryan?

    Typical rte nepotism..the same old names are showing up for decades regardless of whether they've any talent,just the right connections...ireland at its most corrupt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,807 ✭✭✭speedboatchase


    I remember hearing she was filming a TV show while in the middle of her journalism course, but said that she didn't feel she was getting any opportunities because of her father. Oh, how I laughed :D

    Because people with actual talent sometimes start to think for themselves, and won't necessarily dance for the cameras.

    I wondered who the hell she was, and she seems to be famous because her late father was a high-powered lawyer who defended OJ Simpson.

    He must be turning in his grave.

    Wouldnt know about other countries but its the same snouts feeding in the same trough for years...who you vote for,which property developer you support,who you're related to..none of these are valid excuses for somebody to recieve taxpayer revenue via the state broadcaster.

    If there's a job going in RTE when was the last time the vacancy appeared in the paper?
    Is there nobody outside the usual suspects and thier families and flunkies who are capable of presenting a show?

    It is not unique to RTE so quit acting like it.

    ^ it's not unique, the BBC are infamous for nepotism....but things have chaged in recent years, i think the poster has a valid point, reason being we're Irish and as such have the right to comment on RTE and it's cronies.

    Ease off on the slagging comments please, you know who you are! The girl has just lost her father.

    Show business is driven by nepotism the world over. It is what it what is. I dont see way you are picking on Lottie, I know you had a hard on for Gerry but leave out seriously.

    Well it shouldnt be driven by nepotism..it should be driven by talent.

    Whatever i may have said about Gerry previously is in the past and has no bearing on this thread so stop your shiit stirring.

    Feeling over looked, Degsy? If you are RTE any child of Gerry Ryan is "worth a look" by RTE as Gerry was such a big star and revenue generator despite the bile you have written about him in the past.

    This rant is so unhinged. Why are you blaming RTE when it happens the world over? Paula Yates was a great presenter so I dont know what you are smoking there.

    Thats rich Degsy given what you have been posting. If you think Im trolling then report me. Leave it to the mods and dont backseat mod.

    In two posts youve yet to formulate an effective counter argument to my post. This isnt the ranting and raving forum Ive put your posts in perspective. Again nepotism in show business isnt just an Irish problem stop acting like it is not, someone with Lottie's pedigree is worth a gamble/developing despite what you feel about her father.

    The thread is entitled "Lottie Ryan", and the mere mention of anyone else, or what happens in the rest of the world is irrelevant.

    We all know that it happens everywhere else. Just because someone managed to find themselves a niche in showbiz, doesn't automatically mean that any of their children have got what it takes.

    There may well be more deserving people out there who will never make it, because they haven't got her advantage. The problem is, that if she turns out to be unsuitable, RTE will still find something for her to do, and we'll be paying for her, instead of the more suitable candidate who never got through the door.

    But still such is life in any profession really I know the title of the thread but dont single her or RTE out for the practice.

    In fairness this isnt the guy who does the weather on the weekends when the other guy is away's daughter. It is Gerry Ryan's daughter hence she generates interest of the press, station bosses and the public. With her father's recent death there is a natural narrative there which the public are interested in. A few months on from it we now can see Gerry's true commerical value to RTE and his legacy. Again if she has a nth of her father's talent for broadcasting then she is worth a look at/developing. All of which gives her viewers/listeners that the "more suitable candidate" doesnt attract on the first day. Whether she transitions that to something worth watching or listening remains to be seen. At least go into it with an open minded rather complain for the sake of complain or what was witnessed in this thread make personal attacks against her or her family.
