If you need a giggle, watch this!
Here in Ireland, we have a lot of slang, words and phrases that we know exactly the meaning of, but someone who isn’t used to the Irish banter may not. For example, the use of the word “grand” in many different ways, saying “I will yeah”, when you have no intention of doing such task, and there’s many, many more where they came from.
It seems that supermodel Kate Moss came across one Irish term during her time here, but she didn’t quite get the meaning of it… In a clip of an old interview with British Vogue, that they posted in honour of the supermodel’s birthday yesterday, Kate recalls her “supermodel nickname” according to the magazine’s TikTok account. But there may have been some miscommunication.
She explains, “We were in Ireland and we got a little bit tipsy at a wedding, and I think in Irish ‘wagon’ is drunk, so basically, we were all wagons. Because during that time we were all doing shows, drinking a lot of champagne and calling each other wagon.”
