Toy Show icon Sheamie said people are asking for his autograph
There was one stand-out star from Friday night’s Toy Show, and we’re not talking about Kielty in his Ken costume.
Sheamie Garrihy is the star everyone is talking about after the show aired and we’re not one bit surprised.
The youngster had viewers in stitches with his laid-back attitude and witty sense of humour.
Sheamie is only seven years old but is already a household name in Ireland.
He even has people asking for his autograph in the street – yes, really!
The seven-year-old opened up about his newfound fame during an interview with The Irish Sun.
Sheamie told the publication that the public kept asking him for photos and autographs.
He said: “A load of young ones my own age were asking me for pictures with them and an autograph.
“I could hardly eat my breakfast because of the Toy Show. A load of young ones my own age were asking me for pictures with them and an autograph. All I know is I won’t be stuck for an auld beour,” he quipped.
The ‘Toy Show’ star’s parents Caitriona and Jamie said they’re incredibly proud of their son.
They said he is always like this because he’s often around older people.
“He’s always like that. He’s around older people all the time, my brothers would always be around, and Jamie’s brothers.
“We live in a good community where there’s loads of people around, always people coming and going from the house,” they added.
