I struggle
with the definition of a ‘celebrity’ at the best of times, but when it comes to
the definition of an Irish celebrity herein lies a much greater challenge. Like
most, I’m not quite sure why many of the so called ‘Irish celebrities’ have
acquired the title and furthermore, why such a title requires them to overload
the web with a plethora of tweets on the current darling of social media,
Twitter.
This week
we’ve delved into the intriguing (mundane!) lives of celebrities, which they
have so generously shared with us, via Twitter!
Poor DJ Ray
Shah seemed to be at breaking point this week... it appears that the life of a
DJ is more taxing than one would think.
‘Ah here.... brain is FRIIEEEDDD’
Clearly...
as it has impinged upon your ability to spell Ray!! Whatever the reason, it did
serve as a gentle reminder that DJs too have brains!! Never doubted you for a
minute Ray!
Talking of
brains, or lack thereof, Kamal Ibrahim tweeted...
‘It's been an emotional week! :-(
I miss everyone already x’
I can’t say
the feeling is mutual.... we hadn’t even noticed that Mr. World himself had
gone MIA / relocated! Word of advice: staying away from the homeland (your
celeb land) for too land will result in a downgrade to your already waning
celebrity status! (i.e. no more VIP entrances into Dublin’s finest
nightclubs!!)
And then there were those
celebrities who proved to us that Twitter is a mere medium on which you can
detail to your followers what it is you’ve eaten for breakfast..... or in Niall
Horan’s case, what you haven’t!!
‘I’ve been asleep for the last 4
hours... I just woke up and everyone has eaten but me.. no one woke me.’
Ever heard
of room service Niall?!? You’re not in Mullingar anymore mate, I’m sure the
celeb lifestyle which you are currently enjoying stateside can afford you the
luxury that is room service! #stop complaining!
Ah, but do
not be fooled, celebrities can deviate from the usual ‘I’ve just had a boiled egg for breakfast’ tweet and can instead offer something more, something profound
perhaps...
Actually
scrap that, I read the word inspiration and got a little excited! My bad - Pippa
O’Connor Ormond is actually just advertising for a new stylist, well that, or
she is unaware that she’ll find the aforementioned in her walk in wardrobe!!
Lastly, my
tweet of the week comes from an English celebrity and was one which I couldn’t
pass as it offers an insightful glance into the life of one of the UK’s finest
celebrities.
‘Right,
after late nights I'm off to bed early.(Fills hot water bottle, shuffles into
slippers, pours toddy, fetches reading glasses).Night...x’
Too much information Richard!! Surely some of the above needs to
be censored?! Sometimes, Richard Madeley can get carried away with the alluring
existence that most celebrities enjoy... you really are living the dream!!
#never a dull moment on Twitter
