This is all about context.

The S*n are trying to make it look like he's advocating the use of Rohypnol, whereas I'm guessing he only joked that the only way she'd go back to his place is if it was used on her. Two different things entirely and NK should think seriously about legal action, or at least clarifying his position with another newspaper.

This is such a non-event, but they're using his involvement in the Music Fest against him. Hopefully they'll be allowed no coverage of the event. Alex Ferguson-style media lockdown!

Nah, its best just to ignore it. Think of the subliminal message, they are associating him with a sexy lady.

There is no such thing as bad publicity. Just look at Ryanair.

Both hacks are on Twitter:

Barry Moran http://twitter.com/BarryM85 All he seems to do is goad celebrities, possibly with a view to then carrying a story on their response.
Blanaid Murphy http://twitter.com/IrishSunNews1 She doesn't use it much.

Jaysus that was a sheite story to have in a paper. If they seen the crap I put on my page they would dedicate a full newspaper to me. Muppets.

The sun must be stuck for storys, don’t use facebook myself and that’s the reason why, everyone knows your business, I always say to the Mrs Why do you add people you don’t know. Its like a competition I have more friends than you

Hold on a second! Is that Barry Moran the guy that wrote the article? And he makes a stalking joke using a social networking site about a celebrity? Anyone pick on a touch of double standards.

It wouldn't be a bad idea you know.

Ryanair are a business. NK is a young man who's character is being besmirched as he's labelled an advocate of date-rape drugs. There's a world of difference there.

That's true.

Anyway its a non-story. Anyone who was just flicking through would not notice it, just the picture of her. Its best just to let the story die.

Asmodean

Nobody is going to take that seriously and honestly thats some publicity that would have cost a serious amount of money. The festival and headlining acts mentioned in a national paper/fcuking rag.
Like they say, no such thing as bad publcity. Its obvious that it was a joke.

Maybe, but I imagine that's very hard for NK to do. Hopefully he's made of sterner stuff and with a good network of mates around him.

This make me laugh, this music fest is not being backed by Mr Kelly’s money, he is helping out with the promoting, why in god's name would the sun would want to print this S***T I don’t know, a lesson to us all be careful what you say on facbook

CrackisWhack

Christ, that is shocking, he really should take legal action for that!

mike65

Miss Salpa seems to be taking it in her stride "people say stupid things on faecesbook all the time"

Waste of time and money, If the sun hacked his twitter or facebook or what ever he has a case, The info was giving to the sun, he posted it a joke or not

mike65

Exactly its not like he didn't type the words.

People, think before you type!

In fairness to Georgia, she comes across as a very level-headed individual,she knows this thing has been blown out of proportion as she always looks so well herself...

He was an idiot to it on FB, OP didn't help him by posting it on here. The Irish Sun has done the least damage of all. The Irish Sun is not going to miss an opportunity to print a pic of Georgia Salpia as that is what their readers want; they don't actually read the articles!

He's not friends with 500m people on facebook though it's only a post between NK and his friends, I have posted up some pretty mad **** on mine from time to time which taken out of context would make me look simply nuts.

It's definately a lesson to learn but it's still the lowest thing I have seen printed in a while.

It's the way of the world now, it has all the elements of [celeb / trash] media story, hot model, drugs and facebook!

I remember another Irish tabloid having a front page story last year that was much worse in the sense that it was no business of anyone except the family involved and was not news that anyone else needed to know. It was just a chance to make a headline out of a personal family tragedy that affected nobody outside the family and their friends.

MitchKoobski

I hope I never become remotely famous. If any paper had a look at my facebook, they'd have stories for weeks.

jayboi

Im supprised so many people are shocked, this is what tabloids do.

Everyone here is from waterford im sure most of ye will know a handfull of women(possibly men) who take a story and turn it inside out just to get a bit of gossip, happens everywhere I sure but you notice it more where you know the most people.
