Watch: Robert Downey Jr's nightmarish onesie and other ways celebs celebrated St. Patrick's Day

While real life may have shut down for the entire Bank Holiday Weekend on our shores, around the world celebs donned their greenest garb and played up some stereotypes to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.

Some nailed it, some phoned it in and then there were these.

Thankfully we had Niall Horan to lead by example.

Happy paddys days to all the lovely Irish people all over the world and anyone else who wants to join us .ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»ðŸÂ?»

Some made more of an effort than others (and they really, really shouldn't have).

Celebrating my Irish roots today. Shout out to County Cork. Here with my Nanna. Kathleen O'Callagan (can't sound more Irish than that) she was always my lucky charm, now she's my guardian angel. Love you and miss you Nanna.

On this St. Patrick’s Day, I can’t help but reflect on all the leprechauns detained at the airport.

#StPatricksDay Irish History Fact: We invented whiskey, sarcasm & bare knuckle brawling. All on the same night. In that order.
