Video: TMZ seems to be under the impression that Jay-Z put Dublin, Eye-err-land on the map

This is just excruciating.

From the country that brings you a celebration of the life of Saint Patty, whoever she is, comes this f***ing travesty of a video.

TMZ patronise the Irish to within an inch of our diddly-addled minds as they discuss Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s recent visit to the Emerald Isle.

As well as claiming that Jay-Z put Dublin on the map by mentioning the city in the lyrics to one of his songs, they also reckon that we’d clearly never heard of the megalomaniacal rapper and his missus and that we’d only catch on in 15 years’ time or so.

What’s worse again is the fact that there’s an Irish Jesse Pinkman lookalike in the office who does nothing to defend his compatriots. For shame.
