A brief history of well known people drinking (often shocking) pints of Guinness for Paddy's Day
THIS WEEK HAS shone a harsh light on a previously untouched subject close to the people’s hearts.
The compulsory pint of Guinness on St Patrick’s Day – and how certain people in the public eye have been drinking slop.
It started with Paul Ryan in Washington toasting with this
ಠ_ಠ
Kate Middleton was sipping away on this yesterday
Have a look at that head
The art of pouring a good Guinness has been discussed and debated for years.
So let’s have a look at some famous people who look like they’ve been forced into it for the optics – like Guy Ritchie here
Quentin Tarantino’s face says it all.
Hugh Grant at least got one with a good head on it
It’s the kind of celebrity tradition that Paul Ryan has highlighted – and the further away from Ireland you get the worse the quality of the pour
As is always the case.
The Guinness photoshoot in March is a classic of the genre though
One where you just grin and bear it if it’s not your thing
“I am not doing this for the camera, I swear”
Jonathan Ross whipped this one out from under the table for Gwyneth Paltrow
Others go all in when in Dublin
Guinness tache and all.
In fairness to Becks, he’s a big fan of the black stuff all year round
The face of Kate Garraway drinking a pint before 7am yesterday on Good Morning Britain probably sums the phenomenon up best
Mmm… delicious breakfast pint.
