The Dredge: Niall Horan has brought shame on Ireland

Here’s how. All the very best of the day’s celebrity dirt.

EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt – from the top to the very bottom.

#NIALLER: Niall Horan of One Direction has brought shame upon Ireland.

Now, we wouldn’t normally say this. As a rule, we believe that Niall is a wonderful ambassador for Irish culture who we are delighted to see carrying the tricolour to his youthful female fans.

But sometimes a line must be drawn in the sand.

Last night, Niall told his gazillion Twitter followers:

This is too far, Niall. Too far.

#RIRI ANGRY: You don’t mess with Rihanna. Because if you do, she will clock you in the skull with a microphone.

The singer was performing at Birmingham’s NEC Arena on Monday night, when an over-eager concertgoer held on to her hand a little too long.

WHAP.

In other news, Rihanna overtook Justin Bieber to become YouTube’s most viewed artist. Well for her. (Complex)

#SUPERMAN: As well as having abs of brushed titanium, new Superman Henry Cavill is a delightful man.

How do we know? Well, one Gianna Mucci has posted an account of how he used to walk her dog Nuddy when he was working as a waiter.

Henry just wanted to do this as a favour, but I insisted on paying him. After all, he was a struggling actor, right?

The next time I called Henry to see if he could walk Buddy, I didn’t hear back, which seemed a little strange. A couple weeks later, I got a voicemail from him apologising for not being able to help and explaining he had been overseas auditioning for Bond.

She met up with him years later at a press conference, after he had become a star:

Despite all that had changed in his life, he was still the same Henry — as humble and thoughtful as ever [...] Before Henry left to do more press, he looked down, and said quietly, “I miss Buddy.”

AW. (Yahoo)

#BIG VAL: We already know that Val Kilmer’s Twitter account is composed largely of gut-bustingly awesome Val Kilmer selfies.

But it’s nice to know he hasn’t forgotten his roots.

You can be our wingman anytime, Val.
