Allison Langdon grills ABC TV presenter for naming her newborn son Methamphetamine Rules… leaving the young mother shocked

Current Affair host Allison Langdon asked an ABC TV anchor about her decision to name her son “Meth Rules” Tuesday night.

WTFAQ star Kirsten Drysdale told Langdon she registered her baby under the shocking name for “research purposes” for a segment on her show.

However, Langdon was not amused and took a tough approach during her interview with the new mother.

The TV host fired at the comedian: “Did the epidural block the brain? Why would you do this to your little boy?

Drysdale seemed surprised by the severity of Langdon’s questions.

“I did it in the name of journalism, Ally,” she replied.

Langdon continued: “I know when you fill out a passport form you have to answer if you have another name, so baby Meth won’t have to check ‘yes’ to that?”

“No, he won’t, because that’s if you change your name. That’s a different thing, it’s a ‘correction’, so there’s no mention at the bottom of the deed of birth that way,” Drysdale explained.

Langdon then wondered if the comedian thought she had “gone too far.”

‘NOTo. I hope there is no parent who would seriously call their child such a name.

“But if they give their child a questionable name, I think we have shown that we need to control it better.”

Langdon then said that while some viewers would find it “hilarious”, many would be “appalled”.

Langdon was interviewing Drysdale after she decided to register her baby under an offensive name for “research purposes.” However, the decision backfired five weeks later when the name was approved and the official birth certificate arrived in the mail.

Drysdale, who is an anchor on ABC’s WTFAQ, was curious about what types of baby names can and cannot legally be used when preparing for the recent birth of her third child.

She couldn’t get answers from authorities and decided to put the NSW Register of Births, Deaths and Marriages to the test.

However, the decision backfired five weeks later when the name was approved by the ministry and the official birth certificate arrived in the mail.

THE the registry says on its website that it will not register names deemed offensive, not in the public interest or likely to be confused with an official title or rank.

A preview of this week’s episode of WTFAQ shows Drysdale coming up with the inappropriate name “Meth Rules” and filling out the online form while cradling his newborn.

Langdon, shocked, asked, “Did the epidural block the brain?” Why would you do this to your little boy?

“It was pretty simple and probably that name won’t get through, so now we’re waiting,” Drysdale explains to the camera.

The decision backfired five weeks later when the official birth certificate arrived in the mail with “Meth Rules” listed as her son’s first name.

” This happened ! Meth rules in Drysdale are official! Here’s his birth certificate,” a shocked Drysdale told fellow presenter Chas Licciardello.

“My husband is not happy! »

Licciardello was equally stunned that the name was approved.

“Oh my God, I can’t believe it. OK, so it’s definitely not what we expected,” he says.

Drysdale, who is an anchor on ABC’s WTFAQ, was curious about what types of names can and cannot legally be used when preparing for the recent birth of her third child.

Drysdale’s husband Chris was less than impressed.

“You’re ad******d,” he can be heard in the background telling Licciardello.

Drysdale questioned the registry for an explanation and was told that registry staff reviewed all information, including names.

When she told them what had happened, the Register admitted that the name she had proposed for her son had “unfortunately… slipped through the cracks.”

WTFAQ airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on ABC TV and ABC iview.

Drysdale has since registered his son’s real “normal name” with NSW Births, Deaths and Marriages. Pictured is the original birth certificate
