Saoirse Ronan attempted to teach Stephen Colbert how to pronounce Irish names

His reaction to Caoimhe…

SAOIRSE RONAN IS EVERYWHERE right now, and we’re not complaining. Last night, the Brooklyn actress appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

She attempted to teach Stephen how to speak with an Irish accent, and he didn’t quite nail it.

asteph

You, go to hell.
