    This one day at work, my dear colleague Jenna Jameson was pretty rude, started complaining that i was to 'rough' etc, not smiling to me, not wanting to swallow, no small talk during breaks. Would prefer not to work with her again, but hey, she was popular around that time so what can you do.

    Derek Mooney. He was really up his own arse.

    In all fairness Derek has alot up his arse

    Jason Sherlock. Rude c**t. But, maybe that was because there was about 40 people chanting racist comments at him.

    Met Ray D'arcy years ago, seemed like a really nice fellow.

    +1 He seems so, so lovely. Met him about 8 years ago, he told my friend he liked her plastic hoop earrings. :) Considering this is a 'rudest celeb' thread, I could mention the guy along with him. He had no time for mingling with the riff raff at all - big guy with a smig, they were presenting a programme together - I think it was some kind of forerunner of You're a Star. :confused: He had ideas above his station, whoever he was.

    I met Frank Kelly aka Fr. Jack from father ted. He told my 7 year old cousin at the time to fúck off when he called him Jack after he did panto in the gaiety theatre. No joke.

    Maybe he slipped into character for your cousin, a moment to treasure!

    Nah, he was serious and not acting. He said fúck off not feck off.

    ROG is a shy person though. Not his fault if he isn't the most people-friendly player ever



    My pick is Jimmy Carr. But that is kind of his gimmick, the posh Englishman.

    I met Jimmy Carr and he seemed very nice. He was nothing like his gimmick whatsoever.

    As far as rudest celebrity goes, I'd have to say Jerry Cantrell from Alice in Chains. He was there, walking around Temple Bar, and my friend went up and all he could do was shake his hand... while continuing to walk!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23 jedbartlet


    without a doubt that TWINK, i worked with her at a function before and seriously she has a very bad attitude and really thinks she is someone! Rude and up her own hole is not the word for it.

    if you want to get on her tits ask her why she is call twink, she will talk ****e for 30 mins telling you! and then ask her is it Edel or Adell she likes to be called... that really pisses her off.
    What a **** she is!

    :mad:

    Are you making a joke i must not get here or what?
    Anyway paying to move you from his table sounds like he is a right jerk to me. here's a few pennies for you to move peasant! didnt you feel extremely small for having to move. i would have said go **** off you spoiled little man

    Pierce Brosnan by a mile - so arrogant and obnoxious.

    I met him and his dad about 5 yrs ago and found him pretty sound.

    Billy Murray was a prick met him in New York outside St.Pats he had his sunglasses and a hat on. My fault tho I spotted him inside "praying" and waited for him to fininsh and then followed him out and got onto him for wearing his sunglasses and a hat in the church he didnt tae to kindly to it. Still got an autograph tho :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Not sure if you'd class them as celebs but me and some friends met Debbie Dingle and the vicar's niece girl (thinks its Jasmine) from Emmerdale and Louise (the one who owned the beautician's that was Warren's wife for a while) in McDonalds in Leeds.

    Debbie Dingle was very rude and just sort of ignored us while the other two were lovely and asked us about Ireland and made small talk. They posed for pics with us too and she had a big scowl in the pic!

    I also spoke to that fella from Naked Camera who played Eoin McLove in Father Ted once. He wasn't very nice tbh. I asked him about Father Ted and he told me that Eoin McLove was the worst career move he ever made because he was sick of people roaring "I've no willy" and other such phrases at him in the street.

    I don't even know their names so not sure if they are even celebrities but it's the best I can do!

    Peter Kay

    My dad is a huge fan and asked him for a picture, Peter said no because he had his kid with him but at the time the kid was running riot around the shop! When Peter and his kid left the shop he let the child pee outside against a wall...I was horrified considering the shop we were in has a public toilet!

    Who, in the name of God is Twink? All who have met her seem to have had really bad experiences, could she really be as irritating as her name? (she is a woman, isn`t she?)

    I had a friend in college who was good buddies with him and I was out with the 2 along with some other not so celebs, but he was a right p***k


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,247 ✭✭✭Greaney


    A mate of mine "M" was in fair city for a few years, and one weekend when were were hanging out (I the fellow culchie was up in Dublin) I got to see first hand how folk approched her.... all the time, thinking they could touch her and grab her like she was public property!!

    Her worst experience however was in a club where a skanger walked up to her and said "are you so and so from fair city?". She sensed there was going to be trouble and said "er no, but I do get mistaken for her", to which skanger replied "boll***x" and headbutted her. Poor "M" came too on the floor, nose pumping.


    She's stayed acting (because she loves it) but does more theatre now and works with young people.

    She found being "on" all the time and having go out of your way to be sound, when being treated rudely, very hard work. Folk thought they have the right to say things to her that they'd get a smack in the mouth for from their ma if it was breathed to a neighbour.

    On the other hand, yes, other celebs have terrific egos

    I kind see your point. Im quite good mates with a rugby player (not Iirsh) who well known across the water especially known in his area and country in particular. Anyway he gets quite lot of hassle most times he is very good and has no problem with it.

    But there are people out there who expext him just have smile in his face all the time.

    But overall he very good especially with kds and has no problems. Have say i have smile in my face too from the women who go crazy for him.. Lucky man.

    Kian Egan is the worst most obnoxious scumbag imaginable. He once kicked a production assistant at UTV in the small of her back rather then ask her to be quiet while he was on the phone. She was encouraged to call security on the ugly horrible little bastard but was in to much shock to deal with it.
    The rest of the band were also horrified. Mark Feehily seemed really decent.

    Bono- obviously got a messiah complex but was quite thoughtful in accommodating me and my broken leg when I met him once.

    Ray D'arcy- Really sound, seems a bit weak though, I think his Mrs bosses him around.
    Grainne Seoige - Very nice friendly and down to earth.
    Albert Reynolds- Gent! Nicest man ever.

    Must defend Miriam O'Callaghan, from an earlier posting, both she and her husband are the nicest people in the Irish media

    Mary McAleese- Couldn't be nicer

    Jamie MaGuire from Shameless- Absolute gent, great guy

    I've met a few more but nobody stands out as an absolute wanker except that Sligo scumbag at the top.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,089 ✭✭✭✭LizT


    I'm a huge fan of Westlife but I have to say I was really disappointed when I met them at a signing. Kian Egan sat talking on the phone the whole time hardly looking up at any of the people that came to see him and get his autograph. Bit much considering I qued for 4 hours and paid 17 euro for their album!

    He even told the girl in front of me who was in floods of tears and hyperventilating to be quiet.

    The rest of the lads were lovely though.

    Worked for Coca Cola at Wimbledon tennis championships many years ago and was struggling out of a lift with a trolley of crates, when f*cking Cliff Richard barges me out of the way and makes some rude comment about not be able to get the staff these days...w*nker

    Funny thing is that I had to deliver some post-mix boxes to the men's changing rooms later the same day and Pete Sampras held the door open for me and was a complete gent!
