Dream Dinner Party… With Social Media Star Eric Roberts

From throwing out one liners on TikTok to licking cookies on Squid Game: The Challenge, Eric Roberts has had a busy enough year.

The social media star also recently launched Virgin Media‘s new Streaming TV platform, giving audiences the ability to experience infinite entertainment from one tiny box, and STELLAR had the chance to catch up with him too.

We asked Eric all about his own entertainment preferences… particularly when considering his own Dream Dinner Party.

Let’s go.

1. You’re throwing your dream dinner party. If you could choose from anyone in the world who would your ideal guests be?

I would have to say Dwayne Johnston, Leonardo DiCaprio and Frankie Boyle. It wouldn’t be a dinner party, I would have to take them to my local for a pint.

2. Would you have a theme or a dress code?

The theme would be 1920s Ireland.

3. What are you cooking? Is it a lavish affair or low-key nibbles?

We would be having spuds and stew.

4. Time to get ready! What are you wearing?

Head to toe tweed.

5. Everyone’s arriving: What music are you playing to set the mood?

Irish trad music.

6. What are you and your guests chatting about at the table?

How great Ireland is and how they should invest in Donegal property and all the models Leonardo dates.

7. Do you have a signature cocktail to serve?

Creamy pints of Guinness.

8. What about dessert? Sweet or a cheese board?

Also Guinness.

9. Is there entertainment?

We would be the entertainment, a sing song would definitely be on the cards.

10. How does the night wrap up? Is it a late one or more chill?

I’d say Dwayne would have his top off, Leonardo asleep in the corner and myself and Frankie would still be on the pints.
