    Watching Glenda Gilson on repeats of Xpose. Love the way she is sooooo "serious" about complete sh1te.

    Her intros are pure cringe - jam packed full of cliches
    Jerry Hall - "men love her, women want to be her"

    *Serious voice* like she's reporting on nuclear fusion
    (Eoghan quigg) He came 3rd in Xfactor in 2012, now he's all grown up and got his sights on Eurovision glory.

    She's as wooden as my floorboards and looks like Kauto Star

    She has a head like a horse.

    Only in Ireland could she get away with being a model.

    In fairness all those Xpose presenters get on my nerves. The only important thing to them is looking up to stupid celebrities.

    Yeah I could never see the fascination with her from a modelling perspective. Sharon Ni Bheolain, now there's a sexy Irish woman.

    Colette TITZ-Patrick is the only decent thing on TV3

    As for the Xpose bints, Lisa Cannon is the best of a bad bunch

    If i expressed my thoughts on Xpose, i might have to ban myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 110 ✭✭HotHHead


    I'm not a fan, worked with some people who socialized in her circle and they never had a good to say about her.

    I can't see the fascination with her model wise either.

    Lisa Cannon would be the best IMO- I often wonder how these women get in to these positions, like who is Glenda Gilson? just a rich girl?

    Gilson's claim to fame is knobbing that fat rugby player back in the Celtic Tiger days

    I always liked her... Not that I ever watched exposé, or heard her talk. Actually that's a lie, I think I saw a couple of minutes of her being interviewed on the Saturday night show years ago. She's not a bad looking girl, in fairness

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,957 ✭✭✭trout


    I think I saw her in McDonalds yesterday.

    She was quite pleasant indeed, please & thank you's to the staff, and queued up like everyone else.

    I couldn't tell you what she ordered ...

    Just sayin'

    She's an absolute abomination of a presenter, the worst I've ever seen.

    You can just tell her guests think she's a right bell end anorl

    Glenda Gilson is not remarkable in this. TV shows often seem to choose presenters on the basis of fame or appearance over actual ability. This is especially true of female presenters.

    I guarantee you that when Xpose gets pulled, we'll never hear of any of the talentless bints again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 122 ✭✭MrBobbyZ


    Maybe you're right TWB, I'd like to think you are.
    But over the years we've seen many of the same talentless people popping up on our TV screens and Radio stations again and again.
    EG: Sile Seoige, Hector, Tubs.

    Not great at all.
    She does present a show about celebrity that should have been axed ten years ago when the celtic tiger died.
    It's a show so vapid, empty and filled with commercials for spa's and those boutiques for middle aged women with skin like roy schnider.

    As for Glenda herself <SNIP>

    Discussion of her presenting style and career in general is fine.. but there's really no need for the personal insults!!!

    I can't remeber what I wrote now, I was really drunk at the time.
