VOGUE’S SUP TO NO GOOD

BOOZE SORRY NOW: Vogue Williams could lose her five-figure pay packet Down Under FAIR play to Vogue Williams. Just over a year ago she was a penniless model. Now she is a celebrity in Australia with a famous fiancé, Brian McFadden.

Doing a big TV show like the Aussie version of Dancing With The Stars must have been a dream come true for her. It's just a shame she failed to fulfil her commitments to the show this week after being booted out. Considering the company she keeps, it's no surprise that she went on a drink-fuelled bender and failed to show the next day for publicity interviews.

Shame

In the week that Australian cops had to issue an appeal through GAA clubs to urge our young emigrants to curb their drunken antics or face deportation, Vogue is certainly doing her bit for the Paddy stereotype Down Under. Now she's unsure if she's going to receive all of her five-figure paypacket.

With all the people looking for a break out there it's a shame Vogue is getting a shot at stardom when she clearly couldn't give a monkeys.

Why can't we notice our talent?

VOICE: O’Shaughnessy AT the time of writing this article I have no idea how former Fair City star Ryan O'Shaughnessy did on Britain's Got Talent, but, whatever the outcome, it's now almost certain that he's set for a major musical career across the pond.

But doesn't it make you wonder why he had to go to the UK to be appreciated? Just like the Father Teds, the Una Healys, the Jedwards and the Mary Byrnes before him, he had to go England to get the credit they he couldn't get at home.

I wonder if Ryan Tubridy is taking note of this?

ENDA MUST OFFER A GAY OF HOPE

Kenny needs to man-up on the marriage issue

I SHARE the same relationship with the weather as I do with Enda Kenny. Most of the year I can put up with him, because there's not
much choice. The rest of the time, like this week, I hate him! I've lost all respect for him again.Why? Because he refuses to step up and be a leader to be remembered.

This week the Taoiseach, who stood up the Catholic Church on child abuse, dodged both the opportunity to debate the fiscal treaty on TV and the chance to pledge his support for same sex marriages. Would Michael Collins or DeValera have been too sheepish to call out to TV3 for fear of bumping into the big bad wolf that is Vincent Browne? Hell no!

I'm not so sure what their feelings would have been towards marriage equality for same sex couples (given some of the rumours about the Big Fellah).

Loving

But we all know that Enda still lives in the dark ages on this one, as he preferred to kick the issue to touch and let a "consitiutional
commission" look at it. Just because a bit of man on man action doesn't float Enda's boat doesn't mean he should stop others loving and committing to one another just like us hetros.

If only we could switch the upcoming referendum to vote YES or NO on same sex marriage - I reckon we'd have a much better turn out on the day and it would be much more worthwhile. But sadly Enda and co are headstrong over their Fiscal Treaty referendum
which is simply just squeezing more money, time and energy out of us.

Burton should dole out help to bosses

MAKING CHANGES: Joan Burton SO Joan Burton has stated that she's going to stop dole payments for those who refuse to work. What a fantastic idea.

Now the government at last may have money to offer to all those poor unfortunates who once ran their own businesses and lost everything.

I still find it amazingly corrupt that self-employed people are entitled to NOTHING when they fall on hard times, despite the fact they have paid more taxes and employed more people than most of the rest of us.
