The headline leaves out the crucial words “at a reception with hundreds of others”

The prime minister and his wife are beginning to come across like autograph-hunters or the venerable Herbert Messina Ferrante who, for years on end until he must have finally thought better of it, had his photograph published in The Sunday Times ‘Heard in the Hive’ section with every celebrity, political leader and famous person he happened to meet by chance.

Maybe Wild Willie will show her his collection of Cohibas.
The Times seems to be indebted to the Muscat. Every time a picture is taken at one of the typical parties and a picture is sent to them by the Muscats, they oblige immediately and publish it.
“I did not have sex with this woman.” And this time, we believe him.
Which one – the one in the middle or the one to his left?
Don’t push me.
Mejda tal-qubbajt.
They removed that article.
The report mentioned that they met ex-President Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary Clinton. Where is she – hiding behind the prime minister of Malta?
Oh look, celebrities.
Are you sure that they are not wax figures?
How do they do this? Do they have a DOI photographer following them around, snapping away every time someone famous steps into view? Or do the Muscats sidle up to those famous faces and ask for a photograph?
How dreadfully embarrassing.
Nahseb johrog l-ismartphone mill-but u jmur fuq xi hadd u jghidlu ‘Tista tehdilna photo pls?’
Was the new ambassador tagging along and seeking photo ops for them?
It looks like the prime minister and his wife are competing in a Creepiest Smile competition.
Let’s hear it for the Rainbow Tour…
Aye dit nott hef seks wit det wumann.
I do not know it my memory serves me well but I never saw Lawrence Gonzi doing these pathetic things, taking photos with ‘famous people’ and sending them out to the media just to impress the folks back home.
When is this prime minister going to focus on his real job: leading the country and attracting investment (real investment).
I just hope these five years pass quickly and that the Nationalist Party pull their act together to put this bunch of amateurs in their proper place, which is on the opposition benches, as we have been shown once more.
I cannot imagine any Italian newspaper publishing photos of Enrico Letta and his wife posing with celebrities as though they went to Madame Tussaud’s.
This just makes one realise how provincial Malta is.
It’s not just the Prime Minister but so much that goes on on Facebook too. What with flaunting sunglasses, diamonds, cars and champagne. It’s exactly the same mindset, probably the result of underlying inferiority complex.
My eight-year-old daughter has just piped up on seeing this photograph of the prime minister’s wife: “I don’t like that woman; there’s something sinister about it”.
Granted, sinister is Carla’s favourite new word, but still.
