To wonder why famous people feel they have to over share personal stuff

Aaargh! Millican! Yuk yuk yuk vile obsessed and verging on the creepy the way she over labours her disgusting routines! Were she a bloke she'd be arrested!

Comedy is a personal taste, whether the comedian is male or female. Personally, I don't find vulgar comments funny, I think it is a lazy way of trying to get laughs by shocking the audience.

Dislike Ryan/ horribly vulgar Rosie Jones (why nobody told her that filth isn't the way to be accepted as a minority comedian! Being actually funny IS) any females that bang on and on about the very most intimate bits of female anatomy and sound to me like adolescents bragging about sex they haven't had! Female funnies? Victoria wood bless her /Andi osho / Zoe lyons.i used to like cunk but her new series is embarrassing and zero funny.

Do you mean Diane Morgan’s ‘Mandy’?
I absolutely love it!

Cunk was written by Charlie Brooker.
Morgan is a writer and actor rather than a comedian

Didn't the late great Joan Rivers start this type of humour ?

I found her outrageous , but funny .
Thanks to her -
going to the beach became a joke -all those crashing waves meant sex on the beach .

I'm not that keen on Sarah Millican .
Recently , I've found Lou Sanders too crude .

Another good reason not to watch Jonathan Ross posing and attempting unsuccessfully to be 'cool'. I enjoy witty and creative humour which draws on observation of life such as Billy Connelly or Peter Kay. Vulgarity often (not always) relies on shock value and little else.

I can't stand Kathryn Ryan she is curd, sexist and unfunny, as well as being an attention seeker, talking over others to draw attention to herself.
As for Jonathon Ross A friend stop talking to me 10 years ago because I said I couldn’t stand him, Lol
I think over sharing is attention seeking and very unattractive in anyone be you a royal, a so-called celebrity or a so-called ordinary person.
Unless your story will help others and sometimes it can, then I don’t want to know.

That should say Crude, spell check must have changed it

Highly unlikely to be true. Kathryn Ryan is a comedian and talks the way people expect her to as do Sarah Millican, Sarah Pascoe and many other female comedians . Not to my taste. I prefer Bridget Christie and Jo Brand,

I don't know either the comedians named, but like a good few others here, I have never cared for crude jokes and don't find them remotely funny.

Nor do I find the public statements made by celebrities or others about private matters remotely interesting.

But then I was brought up to believe that you neither "washed dirty linen in public" (must have been hard to avoid for the generations who did their washing in the nearest river!) nor discussed personal matters in public.

Standards have changed about this, and a lot of people must unlike us find these personal details of others lives fascinating, and lavatorial jokes funny, or no-one would listen or read them.

As to pearls - yes I have some river pearls in different colours and threaded either as very short necklaces that lie at the base of my neck, or as very long ones, but none the length my mother and aunt used, which was a necklace long enough to end mid-way between their necks and their bosoms.

On the other hand I haven't owned a twin-set since somewhere around 1968, when I discreetly disposed of one my mother had bought me, and claimed, when she asked where it was, that it had been stolen from the drying area of the hall of residence I was living in.

I''m with those who cannot stand KR. She's offensively loud and unfunny. Can't understand how she makes a living from being so. (Have you noticed that GOOD comedians often win quizzes? I assume that they have the quick intelligence and knowledge to amuse and to be able to make a quick joke off the cuff. )Watch the programme 'Would I Lie to you' and you'll see what I mean)
As far as the joke is concerned - that doesn't bother me, and the headline describing it as oversharing is inaccurate. It's just the person deliveting it that I object to!

Can’t abide vulgar comedians, especially females. So many nowadays resort to it but in my opinion it’s just not funny 😕

Not only famous people it seems!
Social media sites such as FB, Twitter (GN included) are littered with contributions which IMO qualify as TMI

Have you noticed that GOOD comedians often win quizzes?

Here's Kathryn Ryan winning a quiz.

volver There's always the exception that proves the rule!!

I detest both Katherine Ryan and Jonathan Ross. He is a nasty piece of work, and she is just crude and unfunny. I wish it could go back to the old comedy like "Fools and Horses", "Birds Of A Feather", "Keeping Up Appearances." The woman in there WERE funny.

I laughed at that but then I like the comedian and her humour

I know of Katherine Ryan. Never enjoyed her humour (her voice grates on me anyway) and she always has a view on everything and her view is always the riht one at least according to her.

KR makes a very good living from her comedy - her stand-up shows regularly sell out - so clearly not everyone finds her loud and unfunny. Isn't it a good job we don't all like the same things?

Who's Katherine Ryan?

I have a pearl necklace. Love it! And you can clutch them if you like. Even if they break you'll only have one of them rolling away - they'll be individually knotted.

I’ve never heard of her but I’ve never liked crude comedy, I don’t find it funny and on the subject of over sharing did anyone want or need to know about Prince Harry loosing his virginity or that he had been circumcised

It’s just a rather glib, throwaway gag.
It’s actually quite old fashioned in its gender stereotypes and word play.
Of course it’s not true!
Mr Ryan doesn’t really compare the missus’ anatomy to his hobby of choice 🤦‍♀️

The best humour comes when mixed with pathos. When you consider her crude joke, the fact that her husband was alleged to prefer the 18 holes of the golf course to her loveliness is where the humour lies. The way she told it had no light and shade so wasn’t funny.

The woman is a comedian.

It’s meant to be a Joke.
Although a very crude one.

I don’t consider it to be oversharing.
Surely no one has taken this seriously.
