Net idol Jessie Vard faces jail time for promoting gambling


Recommended Posts

What's the deal with her Irish passport? If she is an Irish Citizen she can get from the embassy on Wireless road.

 

However by pleading publicly for it to be issued she is telegraphing the fact that she is looking to flee Thailand and dodge justice?!? How is this allowed?

All "net idols" should be arrested and given 2 months in jail just for their corrosive effect on society as they do nothing other than scramble impressionable minds. :coffee1:

Agreed. She's just 19 years old, naive and was paid the price of a modest meal for a photo. She did not know it was illegal said sorry and the police and courts believed her. People ignore the fact that she is also in Thai movies and has her own band. She just wants to go home. I don't think that's a crime? 

She broke the law... that constitutes a crime..

Ignorance is no defense when in another country... learn the law of the land you're in if you wish to stay out of trouble.

And after they're all  sentenced to long jail terms, I suggest anyone with blue eyes be locked up for at least 25 years.   

 

And after the blue eyed people are safely secured, we can move on to the next color.

 

Good idea?

Are you familiar with such poses Tuner?

 

Nice, yes? 

In previous life I helped create streaming sites. I prefer old school though, pin-up calendars. I vaguely seem to remember it takes a few years to get all the contortions to a point where they work properly. I guess if you start in mid teens by the time you're 19 you can strike a good one:

Irish model pleads for passport after arrest in Thailand

An Irish model sentenced to a month in prison in Thailand for flouting the country's strict betting laws is begging Tanaiste Simon Coveney to come to her rescue.

 

Beauty Jessie Vard has had her sentence suspended for one year and fined 1,000 baht (€26) after she was convicted of violating Thailand’s gambling laws by promoting World Cup wagering.

 

Ms Vard (19), who is originally from Co Wicklow, was one of six models convicted at the Dusit District Court of Bangkok for violating Section 12 of Thailand’s Anti-Gambling Act — specifically for using their social media profiles to encourage Thai punters to wager with online betting sites that have no authority to operate in the country.

She will only get her passport back once her 1 year suspended sentence ends and there is a court order stating all completed. In the mean time she could end up on overstay, unless she can get a good lawyer or a very useful Thai friend to allow her to "borrow" passport to extend her visa

I was going to respond saw it was another one of your inane comments and shall ignore it.

She has lived in Thailand since she was a toddler, Thai is her first language. She knows exactly what she was doing. 

She is just like any glamour model or 'pretty', the fact she is white and from an Irish background makes no difference and why should it? If she was a Thai pretty called Noi no one would give a shit. She broke the law, she pays the price and going by this article she had been given a suspended jail sentence.

 

Additionally 19 years old is an adult. She's a glamour model. Half the board members on here have wives that age. Stop making excuses for her because you are both 'Irish'.

So says the Apeman. What makes you so angry? Just as well your not a judge. Are you fighting with your boyfriend again? I've never seen you make a positive comment about anything. Chill. Cant understand why she annoys you so much. She also appears in Thai movies and has her own band. Jealousy is a useless emotion. She is making her way. Making mistakes of course.  She is 19 years old. I guess you think it was ok when she was abducted and raped? She probably deserved it eh? Grow up don't be an Apeman all your life.

Like to know how does she manage to stay and work in Thailand? What type of visa is she on? Why is she not being deported?

 

So what`s the score with this girl?

Thai movies and bands are irrelevant, not sure why you mention them. Also I had no idea about abduction or rape. Nasty stuff. I've no comments to make about that though. None of my business and certainly shouldn't be mentioned on an open forum. 

 

I do hope she can sort her life out. By all accounts Thailand hasn't been kind to her and her family, perhaps its time to come 'home' and get a real job like most 19 year old girls. Stay off Facebook and IG for a whole and find herself a good Irishman to setup home with. Just a thought...

You see deep down you express a modicum of humanity. Well done.

What this girl does has no skills or talents involved and is no use to society whatsoever, except maybe for the sexual desires of dirty old men. It`s like a comedian who has to tell blue jokes in order to get laughs.

 

It`s just a cheap way of trying to gain fame, any girl of her age with reasonable looks can do the same, it requires no special attributes, she is just one of the many thousands of girls that exhibit themselves online, either for money, to become known on the Internet or both.

 

She is probably wallowing in all the publicity she`s getting and hoping someone will offer her a modelling opportunity or even a movie contract.  Seen this all before, dozens of times, no lectures on trying to make her morally see the errors of her way will work, her sights are placed much higher than that. If some believe she will return to Ireland and find a nice Irish guy then become a loyal girlfriend working at a low paid steady job, forget it, it won`t happen.

 

I would still like to know how she manages to live and work in Thailand and what type of visa she`s on?

You clearly have not done your homework. She has already appeared in 5 or 6 Thai movies and has her own very successful touring  band and is huge in the Phillipines, Malaysia etc. Over 5 million followers would disagree with you. To my mind all alone at 19 years she has fought against corruption and injustice and become a well loved example for the many young people who support her. She should be applauded and not ridiculed. She has achieved this alone without an agent I believe.

I am not comfortable talking about a 19 year old girl but time for a reality check... My last word on the subject.

 

Jessie is a niche, low-level  pretty making around 1000- 2000 baht per IG post or appearance. Like all these pretties she has a finite lifespan and will be yesterday's news in a couple of years. I personally have 'dated' girls with more Social Media followers than her and believe me it's all a front. Bills still need paid and condos don't pay for themselves. A quick look on IMDB will tell you her film 'appearances' are meaningless, she isn't even listed. That tells it's own story. Re her band, it's a garage band with no credibility. Trust me on this.

 

Like I said in my previous post, I wish her well but if I was her family I'd be urging her to get back on a plane and forget Thailand. She's not going to be the next Yaya, Bella or Chompoo Hargate.

What do you mean; she has fought against corruption and injustice? Who is the girl, the next Mother Teresa? And her being a well loved example for many young people or otherwise considered a role model, is really concerning, because this is not a path young people should take, it can only lead to emotional and mental disaster. The sex industry, and what she does is part of the sex industry, even if soft, is a tough business, many eventually end up on drugs, in broken relationships and emotionally broken. Quite often when these girls become past their prime, which is early in this line of work, end up on the scrap heap, with terrible reputations and loss of credibility later on. These women are only perceived as sexual objects, an image that they create for themselves, believing they are in the same leagues as movie or pop stars, when they are not. 

 

She is just another girl using sexual objectification to promote herself, the type that the METOO brigades claim is abuse and victimisation against women. 

 

This girl should not be given a celebrity type status and young people should not be encouraged to view her as a role model, for reasons I have mentioned above.

 

While on the subject of corruption, still want to know how manages top stay and work in Thailand, the line of work she`s into being illegal for foreigners.

If I were to hazard a guess, I'd imagine she's been here on a B-visa...

 

B in this case standing for boobies and/or possibly buttocks.  :biggrin:

Well yeah, the scale is actual model - wannabe model - pretty - soft core porn star - HC porn star - anything goes, pretty much a linear scale. Often linked with all sorts of petty criminals, prostitution, drug dealers, etc. The world is full of them, seems like an easy way to make some $ but tends to end up at the bottom.
