It's Official: Lisa Murphy is NOT a Drag Queen...
Perhaps VIP Magazine owner Michael Doherty was hoping for some Blogorrah-esque kudos from his former partner John Ryan when he quipped Lisa Murphy 'looked like a man in drag,' at the style awards last week? Instead he has cheesed-off big-cheese lawyer and beau to Lisa, Gerald Keane. This row has gone public people...

Magazine publisher Michael Doherty is not usually known for his comedic timing nor his satirical wit. That role used to be filled by his head-strong bud John Ryan, before he legged it off to the States and developed a strange preoccupation with cute little doggies.

So we were kinda taken aback when we heard that Johnny Boy made a toe-curling reference to Lisa 'what does she do?' Murphy at the VIP style awards last weekend. According to the papers he quipped: "Last year, we didn't have a male category, but we had a lot of interest from men coming in wearing slinky dresses and big wigs - until we realised they were taking off Lisa Murphy." Yeah, our sides are splitting too.

Apparently Michael 'is this thing working?' Doherty is now in the bad-books of Lisa's fella Gerald Keane. Oh, and not very funny. That aside, money-bags lawyer Keane wants an apology from Doherty and by heck he'll get it...

The thing is - Gerald only went on live radio demanding Doherty say sorry for his cross-dresser gaffe. Yes folks, brought the embarrassing story to the attention of the nation's media on Newstalk's lunchtime with Eamon Keane show. And him a veteran ShowBiz lawyer. Only fuelling the flames there Gerry.

Well Gerald has confirmed what we all knew anyway - Lisa Murphy is not a drag Queen, she's a real lady. But after her recent appearance on the Late Late Show we can confirm that Lisa Murphy is in fact far posher than the Queen. Went to the finest finishing schools in Ballinteer... Now, put that in your pipe and smoke it Doherty.
