Kathy Griffin was booed by the crowd at her Dublin performance on Wednesday, November 8 after she mistakenly included Ireland as part of the United Kingdom.

She stated it was nice “being in the United Kingdom,” and seemed genuinely shocked when the friendly crowd suddenly turned to her booing and catcalling.

Griffin became so startled she had difficulty continuing with her routine, The New York Times reported.

Most of the Irish people at the show in Vicar Street clearly believed Griffin, an Irish American, should have known better. She has been a frequent visitor there and visited her grandmother’s hometown of Drogheda in Co. Louth in 2007 with a TV camera in tow. Her Irish escapades were filmed for her Bravo series “My Life on the D List.” She was given a civic reception. …

A show? What does she do? People don’t actually pay to see her, do they?

I had a boss from Hong Kong. While getting his MS in the US, he was perplexed by the number of people that kept asking what part of Japan was Hong Kong.

He finally wised up, and started telling the geographically-challenged "The Northern part".

The UK is England, Scotland and Northern Ireland (Ulster).

it would be like a going to Canada and saying, "It's so nice to be here in the States."

I once heard President Obama give an address in Honolulu in which he described being "here in Asia."

The only thing I’d pay to see her do is suck on a nail gun.

“I had a boss from Hong Kong. While getting his MS in the US, he was perplexed by the number of people that kept asking what part of Japan was Hong Kong.”

After my interaction with the Discover Card customer service center in Utah, I found out that Guam is part of Japan too.

I had a boss from Korea while working for the Japanese company, Konica. My brother came for a visit and we went to an oriental restaurant. The girl who took our names and got us seated had roundish facial features like the Japanese and somewhat flat cheeks like Koreans.

I figured she was from somewhere between Korea and Japan, so out of the blue, I asked her if she was from Hong Kong. Yes, indeedy. she was. My brother’s mouth dropped open and he asked, “How did you know that?” I just smiled.

Ireland is jam packed with liberals these days. It’s not the Ireland we remember from 30 plus years ago. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if it goes full commie or socialist soon.

Kathy, f’Petessake, Ireland is the place with the volcanoes. It’s one of our best allies in all of Africa.

Just a demo that she is really low wattage...

I should think so.
I've never been Irish or Brit, and I have known the difference between "England," "United Kingdom," and "Great Britain" since high school...

"What a maroon" is the kindest thing we can say about this 'mensa escapee...'
