It’s always fun seeing the words “drunken socialite” in print, and thanks to the New York Daily News, we can. Witnesses in a court proceeding say Clare Irby, “a descendant of the Guinness brewing family” got a little frisky on a flight from Bangalore, India to London on Kingfisher Airlines (a five star airline, naturally). She allegedly got extra-friendly with a male passenger – in between bouts of screaming at flight attendants and ignoring her two year old child. And at least some of the passengers started complaining about the PDAP’s (Public Displays of Affection on Planes). The most shocking thing? Not the alleged thong-baring, but the fact that Socialite Irby – who admitted to being tipsy – was not lapping up stout. She was drinking red wine – and I’m sure there’s a Guinness or two rolling over in the Old Sod as we speak. And…speaking of Guinness – did you know the Dublin-based brewery is celebrating its 250th anniversary this year? Raise a glass – and keep your undies out of sight. |



I’m sure she was drinking wine because Guinness was not available.
