Connolly ‘proud’ of photographer abuse

Management at a concert venue have apologised to a photographer after she was verbally abused and reduced to tears by comedian Billy Connolly.

The Scotsman was just minutes into his sell-out show in the INEC Killarney on Thursday night, when he spotted in-house photographer Valerie O’ Sullivan taking photographs.

The comic made some remarks about photographers making money out of him. Then he told the photographer to “get the fuck out of here” and called her a “fucking c**t’’.
