Sinead O'Connor: I don't feel Irish – and wish I could just 'f**k off' from the country

Sinead O’Connor has admitted she wishes she could “f**k” off from Ireland – and doesn’t feel Irish at all.

The Take Me To Church singer said she only stays in the country for the sake of her children.

But the 47-year-old would prefer to have another country’s citizenship and even looked into whether she could renounce her Irishness.

“I don’t identify with being Irish at all,” she said. “I researched if there was any way I could renounce my Irish citizenship.

Want to leave: Sinead wishes she could quit Ireland

“I can’t unless I marry some idiot. For the Children’s Referendum, only 33% could be bothered to get off their arse and vote yes or no.

“From that night, I renounced my Irishness. I had an Irish flag painted up outside my house. I had it painted the Rasta colours the next day.

“The only reason I live in Ireland is for a safer place for my children. If they were adults, I’d f**k off somewhere else.”

And mum-of-four Sinead – who has publicly opened up about her mental health issues in the past – also doesn’t want her kids listening to a number of her songs.

“One doesn’t like one’s children to have to deal with one’s s**t,” she said. You wouldn’t want them to think you were upset any more than necessary. I’d be careful about what I’d want my kids to hear.”
