The ultimate in car crash TV. Kerry Katona on This Morning breakfast show clearly not in a right state of mind. Reminds me of a British Britney and unfolding like one of those vaudeville freak shows in the Midwest of America. "Ladies and Gentleman, roll up, roll up and see this former "star" self destruct in front of your very eyes" Painful.



Moving on to something much more upbeat and someone who's head is firmly attached to their shoulders. This morning we had the brilliant Irish singer/songwriter Wallis Bird in the studio for a live acoustic session. She is definitely one of the soundest and most affable guests we had on the show and she gave us a fantastic burst of her new single - Blossoms in the Street from her album Spoons. Check it out. Let's face it she's the only guest we've had that has had stamps made for her! (a very practical gift from a fan...weird but surprisingly useful...she used them to post a letter and they worked!!!!)

Here she is -

And finally it looks like the government have turned to Defence Minister, Wee Willie O'Dea to sort out the Medical Card fiasco:

Could this be the Xmas number 1?? The hot tip for the top spot is this mauling of minds between Techno Deutschland demi-god Scooter...(it's nice to be important, but more important to be nice...SCOOTER BACK IN THE UK!!!!!!!!!!) and denim-wearing easy rock specialists Status Quo. Sounding like it was created in the bowels of hell, i suspect it'll be Satan and not Santa who will make this Christmas No.1...

MORE P.P.I. RADIO AWARDS ACTION!!!!!!!!!!!

Found some more pics from the night...


Take That reconsidered their reunion after time had ravaged their once youthful looks!


That scared looking individual looking up is Sean MonCrieff!!
I think the blue rinse and rollers in the first few tables blew off...as did KC who like an embarrased son who's Mum has just popped out of her bra at a Wedding disco he has denied all knowledge of my existence...."Lenny...erm don't know who you're on about" *legs it*


The International Sign of Rock!!!!!!!!! "Up Da Rebels"

I think news reporters relsih the BIG stories...just check out the armchair and wineglass! Priceless.

BEST BREAKFAST BOOSTER FOR THE ROOSTER

RedFM won six awards overall on Friday night which is an incredible achievement for everyone here at the station. Myself and the Tall Guy won Best Breakfast Show 2008 beating off National and Regional competition. It's the FIRST TIME ANY SHOW OUTSIDE OF DUBLIN has won the award so we are really chuffed...I think i made my feelings known when we took to the stage and after i horrified Presenter Patrick Kielty with an attempt to kiss him on the cheek...he flinched and i knew he was uncomfortable so i tried the other cheek!!! Up close he actually looks like he has translucent skin and a wig which was weird (note: that could have been me off my tits.) I did manage to get in an "UP DA REBELS" scream though and with a heavy metal two horned salute that nearly blew the make-up and rollers off the grey rinse brigade sitting in the closest tables to the stage. So, it was a brilliant night for RedFM and for Cork.

Here's a few pics of the night's activities:


"Just a one Cornetto - GIVE IT TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!"


Myself and the big fella i need to get a box for these photo ops!


GROUP ACTION - Had to get my new handbag in...i'm weak! (thanks to Caroline in Production ;-)


Just adjusting my clip-on tie


Another great group shot that does look like about ten individual pics in one!!


Duran Duran eat your heart out!!!

Here is the best analysis i have seen of the American Election so far...GENIUS



IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER LENNY PHOTO ALBUM MOMENT *drum roll* HERE IS A SELECTION OF SOME OF THE PHOTOS I TOOK ON MY PHONE THIS WEEK..OOOOHHH I'M SO EXCITED:

SANTA'S GROTTY:

It looks like Santa has been ripped off by the Elves and is on the streets

DUBLIN ZOO

"Here can i borrow your mobile to make a trunk call?" "No, fuck off"

TONGUE MASTER

In his early years George's tongue was used to tow tractors...

My fave RANDOM pic:

How much is that Piggy in the window...


Oh God how did that get in there *pulls at collar nervously*

This morning we were talking about Celebrities who have 'sold out'...I suppose if Mr Marketing man from Company Cash comes calling it's gonna be pretty tricky to refuse huge wheelbarrows full of readies for a few hours work. Well, it seems that the ultimate anti-establishment anarchist himself is not immune to the greenback...Yes The Sex Pistols frontman Johnny Rotten has cashed in his soul cheque and is now advertising BUTTER!!! He's a 'Nutter for the Butter' apparently...Ah well NEVER MIND THE BULLOCKS



Here's some more money hungry celebs cashing in...mainly in Japan:



Can you believe this man has a position in American politics...oh hold on of course i can. Arnie in an advert for an Energy drink...


Don't know if this is a pisstake or not:


And finally Hulk Hogan gives us a taste of the kind of sound that exists in George Dubya's head:

Dave Mac appeared at work today looking quite dapper with a new haircut but i could help shaking a certain character out of my head...

Dave Mac displaying the kind of expression usually reserved for a birthing elephant...


Could it be Snooker legend Ray Reardon...


I know who it is!!!!!!! It's Eddie Munster:

Here's an exclusive pic of Dave Mac with the Official 'Dave Mac Action Doll'.
It comes with its very own cord you just pull it and it meanders through a series of crazy facts and one liners...only problem is you can't turn it off!!!!!!!!

EXTRA FEATURES INCLUDE MINI PACKET OF CHEESE & ONION TAYTOS AND A SPECIAL MINI TOMATO SANDWICH...IN THE SHOPS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sacha Baren Cohen aka Ali G aka Borat is back with his other alter ego Bruno. Bruno is a gay Austrian Fashion TV Presenter...And like his previous characters Cohen shows he has steel balls when it comes to showing up people's prejudices...and especially when it comes to gun-toting rednecks. He is currently filming for his latest movie - ‘Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Male’, due out in May 2009.

Here's a taster -



The story with this one is that 'Bruno' had to do a runner after Daniel the Redneck doesn't take kindly to comments about his 'poopenshaft' -

This is where it all began...McDonald's very first TV Commercial with the debut of Ronald who looks like he smells of Gin and woke up in a wheelie-bin...

NIALL BREAKS TOE ON THE SHOW!!!!


Niall Breslin from The Blizzards was on the show today and managed to drop an Iron on his toe while we were talking to him...OUCH!!! Is that a radio first!!???? Hear the interview in full again on Satuday morning on The Best of The Rooster between 10am and 12pm.

Also today we had a new segment called CARRY ON REGARDLESS about people who continue to do whatever they are doing even if their head has fallen off...Here's a few examples of some real troopers:

Imagine working with these people??



MOOOOVVVVVVEEEEE!!! She's about to blooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!! God works in mysterious ways and personally i think this is Karma...



Well they say it's the hardest job in the world...and this is why. Obviously a member of the audience isn't a fan of theis Stand-Up and makes his feelings known. BEWARE THIS CLIP CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE
