    Sosueme.
    She is basically the Ireland version of an older Kylie Jenner. Ok she isn’t billionaire status yet like KJ but she seems to have become awful wealthy from her social media and beauty products business.

    Oh god and the plastic looking husband. I reckon Ken doll is his idol

    Probably doing well but it’s all an act. A certain cork based “influencer” isn’t know for having a decadent area of a room while the rest of the house looks like ****e.

    Dylan is the wife!! Sue is definitely the female boss.

    Brendan O'Carroll

    for Mrs Brown's Boys alone

    i don't care how popular it is, to me its a national travesty, its comedy of the lowest common denominator, comedy for thicko's

    The odd thing about Brendan O Carroll is that he's a member of MENSA, yet he's produced one of the dumbest shows in human history and isn't ashamed of it.

    I haven't heard of most of the celebs in this thread, which is just as well. I can't think of any annoying ones to be honest, but Graham Norton is crap.

    Have you seen their new house in wherever northside they live?? There must be a lot of money coming in. I believes she works hard to have created a brand from herself, but she also seems to spend at least half each year abroad either on holidays or paid for trips to promote the luxury hotel she stays in. Fair play to her I guess that she has created this life for herself. And to be honest there doesn’t seem to be an end to it, she is becoming more and more successful and wealthy. I get the impression even her extended family is living off her wealth now and tagging along on all the trips. It’s mind boggling really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,364 ✭✭✭Man Vs ManUre


    Rosanna Davison is another one who is paid vast sums and given multiple free luxury holidays each year, just to post parts of it on her Instagram.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,874 ✭✭✭Edgware


    I'm just glad we have all these celebrities here to be able to avail of free holidays in the Centre Parc in Longford and then use their journalistic skills ( stop laughing) to push the propaganda about the place

    He looks ridiculous, his pants are so tight, his teeth look like theyd glow in the dark and the state of his hair.

    Bertie. Just. Go. Away. And stay away.

    The hacks that seek him out to look under his stone to get his opinions on things are worse.

    You are not referring to Lord Adams MP, AM? When the SAS swooped in to save him? That Lord Adams?

    Rox Purcell going on about how hard it is to buy a house at 28.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,136 ✭✭✭✭is_that_so


    Gerry Adams
    He's retiring! On a separate note, I have to say I've no idea who some of these "celebrities" listed in this thread are.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,164 ✭✭✭Bigbagofcans


    Rox Purcell going on about how hard it is to buy a house at 28.

    It's hard to tell if she's trying get more followers by saying this along with photos of her cellulite or if she genuinely cares about what she shows to her fans.

    Also, Rosanna Davison especially since she announced her baby through surrogacy. Countless news articles.

    We saw to two of them in a restaurant in Malahide a couple of years ago. My OH was shocked when I said Dylan was her husband (he assumed he erm...batted for the other team).

    Sue spent the entire meal on her phone and didn't even take her coat off to eat. Had maybe 2-3 fork fulls of grub before she left. Barely spoke to each other the entire time.

    Maybe they were having a bad day but tbh they looked totally miserable.

    Now I don’t know them, and only know all this from Instagram, but they must fly in and out of Dublin near 50 times a year. The amount of holidays, many of them paid by companies they promote when they get there, they take is unreal. They are living some life I have to say.
    I also get from Instagram that Sue is fond of the booze!!

    Fair play to her I guess for becoming so successful, she has both social media and her beauty brands going.
    I think Dylan is just her secretary tho, or else he is from a wealthy family.
    Is there a link from them to the Wrights Swords business??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,609 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Just had a quick glance through this thread and I don't know 90% of the names, so the whole lot of these "celebrities " can disappear for all I care


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,364 ✭✭✭Man Vs ManUre


    So Sosueme is on the cover page of the Irish independent Life magazine today, and big spread inside about how successful she is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,364 ✭✭✭Man Vs ManUre


    Sosueme new tv show starts tomorrow evening. It’s gonna be so bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,547 ✭✭✭Agricola


    Dermot Bannon, I'm sure has been said numerous times already.

    I know property porn is always going to be with us as long as people need shelter but if we must have this bilge on tv, could they hire someone with a bit of personality and an ability to say more than "Wow" and "I love what you did with the light in this room, Wow"

    The programme could do with a new architect alright.

    In this new fashion show that Sosueme is presenting, starting tomorrow night, looks like her co-presenter is Pennywise the dancing clown from IT.
    Very unusual partnership, can’t see this new program working. Another hair brained waste of our licence fee with RTÉ.

    the rte logic, she has so many followers (cough bought) on social media....slaps her silly name on cheap products and all the "pm me hun" will lap this crap up

    Yup. She was always Mairead Farrell until she dumped her poor first husband (whose surname she never used) and 5 minutes later was "Mrs Ronan" and was very adamant about that.

    She hasn't been as effective since that Gibraltar campaign went tits up in 88'

    Bizarre comment. How many women do you know changed their surnames after marriage? Dozens, probably.

    She’s a woman on the radio, and so is fair game for the armchair critics of Boards. Men who hate successful women and the medium of radio.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,013 ✭✭✭✭James Brown


    RTE has always been very odd. Like the Barry Egan with a spread in the indo. Both like a bubble that isn't effected by reality. They decide who the celebs are, even if they are not popular or well known people.
    Egan will get a two or three page spread on a dinner party he hosted, a celebrity Christmas dinner party, 'star studded', with guests such as: 'Marian Keyes, Marty Whelan, Mary Kennedy, Twink, Rory Cowan, Guggi, Pat Shortt and many more'. Likely some paid instagram wannabes too.
    Then you've the like of the rotating LLS guestlist of shams and Lottie Ryan, celeb for life. She'll never be out of work on the tax payers coin. That's just a fact. She'll be on telly or radio or both until she sees fit to retire.
    Anyway, point is Ireland is an odd place were the public needs to be told who the home grown celebrities are because otherwise we wouldn't know.

    That’s exactly it. She’s a totally harmless radio presenter, she’s hardly Lady ****ing Haw Haw.

    As has already been mentioned she has been married twice, and she did not change her name for media purposes after her marriage to an average Joe, but decided that she fancied a change 2nd time around for her new Billy Big Bollocks and bigger wallet husband. No thanks Farrell!

    I met her first husband twice (he's a friend of a friend) very nice man. I've no idea whether or not he's in a relationship with anyone now, but he really was a lovely guy and deserves someone much nicer than her.

    Even when they are dead-they show their funerals for **** sake.

    That knob Barry Egan has been thieving a living with his name dropping rubbish for decades, at least since the late 80s.

    Muireann o Connell though I’m not sure she counts as a celebrity. She bores the bejasus out of me with her irritating voice.

    Is she the one who played Biddy and Mileys daughter?
