Duncan James The NV Of Clubs... Former Blue singer Duncan James brought his pretty boy good self to Dublin last weekend to check out the new NV nightclub on Leeson Street. Surrounded by Glenda Gilson and a bevy of beauties, our Dunc seemed more interested in getting his lips around a creamy pint o' the black stuff than eyeing up the talent on show... Duncan James For many a year pre Celtic Tiger, if you wanted to splash out on a slap-up night-out in Dublin you donned a piano key necktie, put half a can of hairspray into your flock-of-seagulls fringe, Miami Viced-up your suit, and made your way to Leeson Street. Or 'the strip' as it was once infamously called... Glenda Gilson, Duncan James But with the advent of wealthy w**ker Ireland, discerning clubbers moved their VIP taste buds closer to the city centre and clubs such as Lillies Bordello and Renards. Thus, the hay-day of the Leeson Street Strip was over and confined to nostalgic trips down the 80's memory lane... Duncan James & NV Girls But all that may be about to change. Like our return to 80's mass unemployment, Leeson Street may be about to become popular again with the launch of the new NV club on 'The Strip'. And with cheesy boyband hunk Duncan James on hand, there wasn't a shortage of lovely ladies around to pop a few corks when the doors opened last Thursday night. Shiralee Coleman, Prue Wade Yup. Teenage heartthrob Duncan was on hand to get the females interested, but he wasn't alone. Tall glass of water Xpose presenter Glenda Gilson was by his side to provide the eye candy for the snappers at the launch. Sure where would the Irish media be without The Glenda? Clozure & Izabela Chudzicka Other suited and booted guests at the launch included: Tara Sinnott, Shiralee Coleman, Prue Wade, Clozure boyband, Izabela Chudzicka, Hayley Rock, Avril Kelly, Caitriona O'Connor, and many more... Hayley Rock And you would think that with all those hot gals around our Duncan's head would have been turned? Not on your Nelly. The ice-skating star only had eyes for creamy pints of Guinness at the launch, leaving the ladies a little in the cold in the sidelines. Proper order too. Tara Sinnott, Duncan James So there you have it folks, new life is about to be breathe into Leeson Street with NV club. And if you don't fancy going there for the female attractions on show lads, apparently they pull a fine pint of the black stuff. Just ask Duncan James. Duncan James

Boozie suzie – dublin June 12, 2009 - 16:20 Had a Great Ride in the Toilets Will be back again James – Dublin June 11, 2009 - 22:44 Hayley a cracker? Seriously?? No no no no no!! Everything is wrong.. ruff as! Lovely – Dublin June 11, 2009 - 13:15 Major mistake PR people? Why in gods name would you compare yourself to Kryslte? Would you not be more realistic & state 'NV is soo much better than Bucks' - Was in the club for all of ten minutes.... Its Rio's with a lick of paint! No thank you sir! P.S. Haley is a cracker. Simple as. L Emily June 11, 2009 - 08:22 Aiofe, please keep up the comments, they crack me up. Shhh June 11, 2009 - 07:26 Ehhhh, can I point out that it is Duncan James here, not really a celeb or someone with star quality? Model A2 – Dublin June 10, 2009 - 16:33 I've visited many places in the world; pyramids of Egypt, Machu Picchu, the Great Barrier Reef, St Peter's Basilica, Trabolgan but NV nightclub has opened my eyes to modern miracles. I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody and I think that's where krsytle have failed. All hail King Duncan - Supreme Pleasure Lord of a New Utopia(NV). Dave – Dublin June 10, 2009 - 15:48 Tara again.. Niiiiiice! Still dont know if she is single though?! Aoife – Dublin June 10, 2009 - 13:40 "I was just at the newest and hottest club in Dublin, which I thought was much better than Krystle, the people there were cooler and better-looking, the decor was FABULOUS, and I was impressed with the club's approach to minimising its carbon emissions and making charitable donations to Darfur, I will definitely be moving in asap" *CRINGE* when will these people give up? The critical mistake made by PR people in Ireland is their assumption that other people are as retarded and gullible as they are. PR-heads on here, I'm embarrassed for you. Jackie – Dublin June 10, 2009 - 09:25 Duncan arrived at NV club around 10pm there were some non invited guests /fans of Blue outside the venue when Duncan arrived who got photos signed & even a few kisses thrown in for good measure !.u know who u are , we know you read this showbiz column - so Irene even if you didnt have invite you could have come along & met the gorgeous Duncan anyway .keep an eye on www.entertainment.ie as they ususally give listings of things goin on Just Jack – Dublin June 10, 2009 - 07:15 Ha ha funniest thread eva.............. PR in Ireland is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO embarrassing. :( Clearly done by amatuers And as for that stupid picture above of Duncan surrounded by stupid girls, it is seriously laughable. Embarrassing Linda – Dublin June 09, 2009 - 22:39 What is yr wan Hayley Rock like.. seriously!!! The state of her! Jasus!! Duncan is yum yum yummy! dolls June 09, 2009 - 20:56 paula rice - some details on the ethical standards/business model?? nice marketing jargon tho And why, for the love of god, are most of the above comments making comparisons to krystle? Does that make NV a krystle wanabe club? think so!!! perhaps you could have come up with something more original..... Paula Rice – Dublin June 09, 2009 - 19:08 I was at the launch of NV and their business model really impressed me. The nightclub is professionally run and compared to other places in Dublin (Krystle) they have superior ethical standards. My friends and I really felt at home socialising with hot people similar to us like Glenda and Dunks. I can't call upon enough superlatives to describe the interior. Great. Super. Smashing. I don't see myself visiting any other licensed premises in the near future. Irene June 09, 2009 - 14:35 Duncan is HOT! Wish i'd been there Aoife – Dublin June 09, 2009 - 14:23 PS Layla - it is definitely just you Aoife – Dublin June 09, 2009 - 14:21 Jeez Keeley, yours is the only "abusive" comment on here. Shills makes the simple point that it is quite obvious that many if not all of the comments on here are from PR people. Maybe some people did enjoy the night, but it's not normal for a load of people to come on, each 20 mins after the other, saying such blandly fawning things as "I was at the launch of the newest and hottest nightclub to hit Dublin City, I would recommend NV". It smells very strongly of orchestrated PR, so Shills makes a good point when she asks that we not be treated like idiots. Keeley June 09, 2009 - 12:58 Great Images...I went over last Sat and had a great night. Everyone really down to earth and not as many posers as some other clubs on Leeson st.Will definitely go back when I'm up for a good night out with friends. For Shills: Have you nothing better to do with your day than be abusive?I quote ''go do some work for god sake''...aren't you the one with the most comments above??hmmm...Prob some ugly cow thats annoyed you weren't invited...how very sad!And no...I do not work for NV I just hate people like you that have nothing nice to say about anyone. Have a great day you bitter b!tch! layla June 09, 2009 - 12:00 best night in a loooonng time .. so sick of the other clubs thank god sumthin new.. glenda is hott is it me or has showbiz actually got good looking girls on this instead of the wanabes that hang out at krystle and the likes??? shills – mars June 09, 2009 - 11:56 seriously NV PR PEOPLE STOP writing posts under different names pretending various random satisfied customers!!!! i went there and it was great, i went there and if was fab, it's much better than krsytle, duncan is straight, etc, etc, etc... yadda yadda yadda... go do some work for god sake!!! dolls June 09, 2009 - 11:55 shills - so true. You think they would try and make it somewhat believable, how sad!!! and the comments are posted 20 mins apart to make them look even more real. Who actually calls a nightclub the'newest and hottest'. Ireland embarrasses me. We cant even do fake pr right..... Laura – Ireland June 09, 2009 - 11:50 Shills clearly doesn’t know a good club if it hit them in the face FACT, why act so b!tchy? No need to be hating on Duncan! Maybe you haven’t been to a proper Club in a while Haven’t been to NV but think I will check it out this wkend shills – mars June 09, 2009 - 11:23 will the gobsh!te pr people for NV stop posting comments pretending to be satisfied customers please? users are not stupid and can see a bit of self promotion a mile and a hlf away. and duncan james would be more at home in the george. FACT. Lynn June 09, 2009 - 11:18 NV is the best nightclub to hit Dublin in a long time! Went there on saturday with a group of girls and we had a fantastic night, i can see NV being the new hot spot! Mary – Dublin June 09, 2009 - 10:54 I was at the launch of the newest & hottest nightclub NV to hit Dublin City what a great night it was & even better to see the gorgeous Duncan James there who was so nice & friendly. The decor & atmosphere in NV is the best I've some across in a long time it's great to have a new nightclub to go to that is great craic would recommend NV for a great night out with friends sarah – Dublin June 09, 2009 - 10:37 I went to the nightclub for the launch & it was a great night, Duncan was even dreamier in the flesh than I imagined!
