EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.
Natalie Dormer (her off Game of Thrones) has admitted that she smuggles King Crisps and Lyons tea home from Ireland. Atta girl.
Dormer has lots of connections to Ireland – both The Tudors and Game of Thrones were shot here, and her boyfriend is Irish director Anthony Byrne. She told the Irish Times that they regularly get supplies shipped over:
Soda bread blew my mind. We still get Lyons tea bags shipped back home. And King Crisps. I am the one carrying King Crisps and Lyons tea when leaving Dublin.
H from Steps and Jessica from Liberty X (remember them?) revealed that artists were expected to pay for their Brit Awards back in their day. The cheek!
H tweeted last night that the group was asked to cough up £500 EACH for their statuettes:
The price was upped substantially by 2003, when Liberty X won Best British Single.
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
There’s no indication that winners are still required to pay for their awards, but consider our bubble burst. And we thought being a celeb was all glamour and freebies…
The creme de la creme of Irish film talent partied together in Los Angeles last night to celebrate Ireland’s banner year at the Oscars. Chris O’Dowd, Colin Farrell, and the luminous Fionnuala Flanagan cuddled in for a pic:
While Oscar nominated directors Lenny Abrahamson and Benjamin Cleary (of the short film Stutterer) had a chat:
Best of luck to Lenny, Benjamin and co on Sunday night!
