Recent Gabriel Byrne News:
While most of our Irish exports are being good abroad Dublin's Gabriel Byrne has been causing havoc in New York. Last month he caused a stir by walking off the stage in New York when a photographer took his picture too much.

Then over the weekend Byrne blew up at another photographer when he caught him having dinner in a restaurant with a pretty girl instead of attending an awards ceremony where he was to get an award.

The Irish star lost his temper when he was photographed in the New York restaurant. He then rowed with the photographer-who claimed Byrne only backed off when he threatened him with a can of mace gas.

Byrne who is divorced from actress Ellen Barkin was due to accept a Drama League award at New York's Grand Hyatt Hotel as one of the years outstanding artists. But organisers said that Byrne has pulled out at the last minute. Byrne is currently appearing on Broadway in A Moon for the Misbegotton.
