Nadia Forde Has Gone Gaga... Well stone the crows and call me Sheila. It was double-take central on St Stephen's Green yesterday when our meek-minded weak-kneed snappers spotted what they thought was eccentric world fashion icon and hit singer Lady Gaga. Weirdly, it turned-out to be Ireland's No.1 supremo top bestest model ever Nadia Forde in sunglasses and a wig. What? Easy mistake to make... Nadia Forde When you're top o' the heap in Ireland's uber competitive and glamorous modelling world you really have to good at your game. Sure, one day you could be doing a photocall on Grafton Street, and the next, you could be doing a photocall on St Stephen's Green. Mad! And with all that constant and drastic location changing you really have to be ultra adaptive, like some beautiful chameleon. In ridiculously high-heels. Yep. A high heel wearing chameleon. That's exactly what you have to be. Nadia Forde Just look to Nadia Forde folks. She's only the darling of this Nation's media and thusly deservedly voted our top of the pops model by an online poll or something scientific like that... And although she's apparently not-too-fond of this aul rag of a website we think she's a total ledge. No really, we do. Nadia Forde When our polio inflicted snap-force bumped into our Nadzer yesterday she was all dolled-up as bespoke-no-expense-spared-front-page-statement-making-outfit wearing singer Lady Gaga. And by that we mean she was wearing a wig, sunglasses, and a lacy top over silver leggins. What? Don't get all poker-faced on us. Nadia Forde The reason for Miss Forde's doppelganger-ness was to promote the fact that Lady Gaga was the top downloaded female artist of 2009 on 3 Mobiles' 3MusicStore... Just in case you were wondering... Which you probably were... If you were bothered to read down this far.

The Corporation – Dublin February 17, 2010 - 20:42 Fortunately for big corporations who need a bit of local visibility, there will always be out there ready to shill for a few quid.

You won't see me dressed this absurd this weekend in Dublin. This is a BAD halloween Lady GaGa outfit and not even one of my uniquely inspired creations. Just google me! Bow your heads in shame Irish PRs and PAs. rwrr February 17, 2010 - 10:43 Isn't it AMAZING how busy this site is during the day on midterm break................ Amore Amie – Dublin February 17, 2010 - 10:34 Why dont all these lovely Irish "models" see what other career path there is out there for them? Maybe is is just me but I cannot see how these embarrassing photocalls can be worth the money for these models....................... ciara February 17, 2010 - 10:06 cheesy photocalls are the only jobs she would get! assets February 17, 2010 - 10:04 how is she a model,what are assets thinking?? PR Lady – Dublin London February 17, 2010 - 10:03 Give it a break ciara, she is just doing her job, its the agency that books her for these cheesy photocalls which she does well and gets paid for. She is just doing her job. ciara February 17, 2010 - 09:58 nadia is one of the most publicity hungry people in Ireland! give it up, so embarrassed for her! emma – cork February 17, 2010 - 09:49 Those people were clearly either paid or bribed to stand there and look like idiots! Shes the fakest looking Gaga iv ever seen! Model A1 – Dublin February 17, 2010 - 09:29 this IS the irish modelling industry............. im with seamus in drogheda on this one. Sad – Dublin February 17, 2010 - 08:12 The difference between Nadia Forde and Lady Gaga is that one is a talentless muppet pitching for 3 Mobile and the other is a very talented young woman who has made millions exploiting her own talent. Conclusion: One is a respectable artist and the other is a shame on the nation. Seamus – Drogheda February 17, 2010 - 06:35 I'm ashamed to be Irish!
