A great role for the Galwegian.
Straight Outta Compton hits Irish cinemas this Friday and what you mightn’t know, we didn’t, is there’s a girl from Galway in the movie.
Her name is Shahira Barry and she’s been in the news lately for her work as Kim Kardashian’s stand-in on Keeping Up With The Kardashians and her cameo in True Detective.

Barry plays the role of a podium dancer in the NWA movie after auditioning for the part last year in Hollywood. Pretty cool.
Her IMDb reveals she’s in the new Zac Efron movie We Are Your Friends and that she had a part on Lonely Island’s hit parody song I’m On A Boat. Fair play to her.
Here’s the trailer for Straight Outta Compton, it looks quality.
