Coppers Got All VIPeed... Who'd a thunk it folks? Copper Face Jacks has only gone and got all VIP on us. Yup. It's now vying for the Krystle crowd on Harcourt Street. Like, where are all the off-duty Gardas and nurses gonna hang-out and find love now? Surely this, over anything else, indicates the beginning of the end of the recession... Pippa O'Connor Never in a million and three years would we have thought Copper Face Jacks wudda got all up-market and stuff. Sure why would they want the Dublin VIP crowd in quaffing champers on the premises when they're already packing in the civil servants and the students up-from-the-country seven days a week? Replacing the rites with the roishes. Joan Palmer Anyways, like it or not, CFJ now has its own VIP area for Irish celebrity types to pop into and enjoy the high-life. Ah, we can just see Twink in one corner and Linda Martin in the other with high society journalists fluttering between the two... Daaarling. Ruth Melody Last weekend saw the launch of the VIP room in Coppers with Claudine Palmer's mother Joan and brother Ronan among the pampered people behind the velvet rope. Now that Claudine’s an LA woman with her fella's new job in the States we're sure Harcourt Street will be seeing less and less of the duo. Aww. Shame. Carla Mooney Other guests at the launch included: Pippa O'Connor, Carla Mooney, John Norton, Brian Ormond, Ruth Melody, Aoife Kelly, Sinead Kennedy, Zoe Doneville, Emma Cogan, Linda O'Neill, Aoife Ledwith, Emma Powderly, and many more... John Norton, Brian Ormond So there you have it folks, the Celtic Tiger has been dead for nigh-on three years now and Copper Face Jacks has just gone up-market to attract what's left of the cream of Irish society. The world has gone mad... And we love it. Aoife Kelly Ronan Palmer Sinead Kennedy Zoe Doneville Emma Cogan Linda O'Neill Aoife Ledwith, Emma Powderly

Holly September 07, 2011 - 16:56 Who is John Norton??? shep August 28, 2011 - 12:20 Wouldn't Joan palmer easily pass for 21 and john nortan..... Su Burban – The Beeches August 25, 2011 - 12:55 Reinhard! Do you not know that it's cool to scowl? Sure, I remember well in the late 70s when I used to be hanging out with the Horslips in the VIP section of Captain Americas none of the lads were smiling.Of course everyone had pretty bad dental hygiene then so that had something to do with it.Su Love you. Reinhard Heydrich – Bohemia & Moravia August 25, 2011 - 10:10 Does John Norton ever smile? He doesn't come across as an agreeable fellow whenever he's featured on this, ahem, "showbiz" website. Su Burban – The Beeches August 23, 2011 - 22:51 Hey this looks really GLAM. I mean I was there and like the paparazzi were just hopping. Sure, do they still have that great VIP lounge in Night Owls-Europe's only laser disco? CFJ's is really the place to go. Those Palmer kids are like really classy.X MikaMoma – D2 August 23, 2011 - 14:05 Carla Mooney is Claudine Palmer's cousin. leanne August 23, 2011 - 12:23 What the hell's Pippa doing at this?? Seriously are times that tough? Where's Tiffany Stanley, shock horror MikaMoma – D2 August 23, 2011 - 10:42 Now now people, lets be open-minded and think outside the Pale for once. I see no difference between CFJ's and Krystal. JohnJo – Dublin August 23, 2011 - 10:07 Wow, Linda O'Neill is a ride!!! Heinrich Himmler – Berlin August 23, 2011 - 06:53 I fear that Herr Mosley is confusing a debutante with someone making their debut for their county's bogball or stick-fighting team. tanya – dublin August 23, 2011 - 04:36 Things are bad when you have to take photos of a bunch of nobodys. "Cream of Irish Society" - give me a break. tania August 22, 2011 - 21:11 The chavs were out in force, I see. VIPs? Hilarious! Helen August 22, 2011 - 16:50 Pamela and Tiffany must have been washing their extensions that night!!! youngwan2 August 22, 2011 - 16:28 try match ur tan to ur face next time darling. Mick – The country August 22, 2011 - 15:38 Some spot CFJs, I always get a grip in that place youngwan August 22, 2011 - 15:19 aoife looks about 9!! Cormac – Venus August 22, 2011 - 14:38 I concur about Sinead Kennedy being a minx. I think I need to ask her out on a date. Any of you cool people in the know, know if she's single? T Nolan – Dublin August 22, 2011 - 13:45 Zoe Who? Who the hell are these people?! Sepp Dietrich – The Bocage August 22, 2011 - 13:15 The Dolphin Barn House is opening a VIP area next week. Presumably we will see the same faces. That sinead kennedy wan is from Cork. sure coppers wud be her regular haunt vip or not. that said, she is a little minx. I wonder how all the Coppers regulars, mainly the boys from de Wesht feel about not getting a invite to the VIP section while all dese Jackheens waltz in....... Sepp Dietrich – The Bocage August 22, 2011 - 13:10 The Dolphin Barn House is opening a VIP area next week. liz August 22, 2011 - 12:59 Ew anybody with an inch of class wouldn't be caught dead here. Everone pictured above looks like the normal type of people that frequent coppers, Oswald Mosley – Harrow August 22, 2011 - 10:56 Not a single GAA jersey pictured amongst them! How disappointing. Still, it remains my number one choice for a post-debutante's ball half of bitter. Gav D August 22, 2011 - 10:17 Just horrible. About the caliber of "lady" that you find in coppers I suppose. holly August 22, 2011 - 08:56 If these are the VIPs, then I'd hate to see the 'normal' people. I've never heard of any of the above. Heinrich Himmler – Berlin August 22, 2011 - 08:14 This is a hoot. In what parallel universe must CFJ be living in if they think genuine VIPs (as opposed to those pictured above) would frequent the discerning mucksavage's establishment of choice? Robyn Sadlier August 22, 2011 - 02:16 Zoe Doneville? Eh, DROMGOOLE!!
