Joey Harper from Campus Television News talks with Youtube sensation Jenna Marbles, (ask a young person) during her visit to University College Dublin where she received the James Joyce Award on Wednesday (previous recipients include Hans Blix, Noam Chomsky, JK Rowling and Eddie Izzard.)

We like Joey. This is exactly how Paxman started out.

Here’s La Marbles’ version of events.

And one of her trademark NSFW virals from a few years back, which you’re almost certainly far too old to dig.

This day last week I hurriedly posted a video of my cat to YouTube in order to share with my friends on Facebook.
I went out to work that afternoon and my phone never stopped buzzing with emails all night. It was only then that I realised it had gone viral.
A week later, I now have a theory that this could be the most viral Irish video ever…. (as in fastest growing, not most views). The closest I can come up with is The Rubberbandits’ Horse Outside video which received 530,000 views in 72 hours…. In 72 hours, my video received 1,018,445.
It is currently getting over 10,000 views an hour.
At the time of writing the view count is 1,949,000. I’m still in shock. I’m sure there might be others though that I’ve overlooked?

Anyone?
