We seem to love when we see celebrities visiting Ireland and soaking in the culture, such as bingo and Supervalu bags.
Many international superstars have graced our shores over the past few decades, and it sometimes gives us quite a laugh. It's quite funny how we seem to go absolutely bonkers when a movie or music star even mentioned Ireland. When they come here, it's a totally different cultural experience.
We seem to simply lose our minds at the thought of them sharing our experiences. So, here are 11 gas yet weird things that happened when celebrities came to visit Ireland.
Britney Spears shopping in Pavillions
Even Britney needs a few bits from Penney's every now and again. Can you imagine it? You're in the queue picking up some socks and a few other wee bits and the princess of pop is behind you. Man, that is what dreams are made of.

Beyoncé and Jay Z having a casual stroll around Phoenix Park
Beyoncé and Jay Z, AKA the literal king and queen of the world, were in Dublin back in 2014 while Beyonce was on her
Mrs Carter World Tour. The pair decided to take their daughter Blue Ivy to Dublin Zoo before strolling freely through Phoenix Park. Can you imagine how the deer felt when BEYONCÉ walked past? I'd pas out.

Woody Harrelson playing bingo in Waterford
Back in 2014, Woody Harrelson stopped off in Waterford for a bit of bingo with his pal Keith Barry, as you do. Honestly, this photo raises more questions than it answers.

Grace Jones having a bop in Workman's

Chaos ensuing when Justin Bieber played basketball in Dublin
When Justin Bieber plays basketball in Bushy Park, Terenure, you know crowds of people will soon be there to watch.
And that's exactly what happened. The footage alone is giving me a headache.

When you think of one of the stars of possibly the most successful TV comedy of all time heading for lunch in Ireland, you probably don't think of her heading to a North County Dublin petrol station.

And of course, Matt Damon swimming at the Forty Foot with a Supervalu bag in hand
We clearly had very little to get excited about during this stage of the lockdown, because we, as a nation, collectively lost our minds at this
iconic image.
