A CHEEKY model who says she got the New York to Dublin portal shut down after flashing her boobs purred: It was chest fun.
And Ava Louise declared: “I thought the people of Dublin deserved to see my two New York homegrown potatoes.”
Organisers are currently battling to get a grip of the 24/7 two-way livestream, which allows people on either side of the Atlantic Ocean to interact with each other.
The installation linking Dublin to NYC has been blighted by a wave of “inappropriate behaviour” since its launch by Lord Mayor Daithi de Roiste last Wednesday.
And tonight, Dublin City Council revealed that it will be switched it off until “later this week” after their initial plan to blur unsuitable content was found to be “not satisfactory”.
Videos have gone viral showing punters bearing their bums and even one of someone in Dublin shockingly holding up images of the Twin Towers burning on 9/11.
Busty American beauty Ava, 25, has now sparked a fresh storm by stepping phwoar-ward to claim she got the portal shut down at the weekend after flashing her boobs on the Big Apple side.
A furore has erupted after the OnlyFans and TikTok star, who has more than 400,000 followers on Instagram, released images of her whipping up her tank top.
And after receiving plenty of knockers off unimpressed punters online, Ava tonight mounted a stiff defence of the saucy stunt.
She exclusively told The Irish Sun: “Everyone that was there thought it was really funny.

“Everyone on the New York City side really loved it, everyone on the Dublin side were pulling out their phones and filming it. Everyone had a smile on their face, they seemed to be really enjoying it.”
Ava, from New Jersey, said her boyfriend distracted portal security staff so she could make a quick getaway after flashing her breasts.
But the self-proclaimed “Jersey trash” said workers moved in after her bazooka bombshell.
She told us: “As I’m putting my top back on, a guy wearing a security jacket and this woman who apparently works for the installation started approaching the portal and put a rope around it. So I ran away.
“My boyfriend stayed behind to ask what they were doing. They flipped some sort of switch and the portal was shut down. The screen went completely black.”
A worker then told her fella that the portal would be “down for quite some time” amid hopes of cracking down on vulgar acts.
The staff member rapped: “It’s very unfortunate that people are not acting in the best way.”
X-rated star Ava admitted she has received a backlash from “a lot of people” after bragging about the portal boob flashing online.
‘Indecent exposure’
One critic moaned: “You’re probably gonna get charged with some sort of indecent exposure or something . . . especially since there were probably children around.”
Another punter raged: “Are you proud of yourself? You legit ruin everything, like why?” But Ava hit back last night and took a naughty swipe at her detractors.
She told us: “A lot of people are mad but that’s because they are boring and they have probably not seen a nice pair of boobs before.
“But there are a lot of people who feel like I saved New York City from Dublin’s debauchery.
‘Twin set’
“And they think I’m a hero because they really didn’t like the portal and they were quite offended by all the things people in Dublin were doing.
“They showed us the Twin Towers so I showed my twin set.”
The 24/7 stream, situated facing Dublin’s O’Connell Street and on NYC’s Flatiron South Public Plaza, has been rocked by chaos since its inception last Wednesday.
Irish troublemakers have been blamed for most shocking conduct, including flashing swastikas.
The group behind the project boasted it as a “bridge to a united planet” that lets passersby see each other on the 8ft by 8ft video screen but not hear each other.
‘Inappropriate behaviour’
The portal temporarily shut on Sunday following “inappropriate behaviour”.
Dublin City Council said “technical solutions” are being rolled out to clampdown on lewd acts in front of the live video link – and that the portal will be shut down from 10pm tonight.
A statement “The team behind the Portal art sculpture, Portals.org, has been investigating possible technical solutions to inappropriate behaviour by a small minority of people in front of the portal.
“Unfortunately the preferred solution, which would have involved blurring, was not satisfactory.
‘Back on later this week’
“As a result the portal will be switched off at 10pm tonight and the team at Portals.org have told us they expect it will be switched back on later this week.”
The statement added: “We are delighted by how many people have been enjoying the Portal since it was launched last week.
“It has become a global phenomenon and it is important to note that the overwhelming majority of people interacting with the Dublin Portal have behaved appropriately.”
‘Bunch of prudes’
But Ava urged portal organisers to let citizens “express” themselves.
She told us: “I think they are being a bunch of prudes. Let us express ourselves.
“I think the whole thing has been super funny. We should be able to have fun with it, I don’t know what they expected.”
Racy OnlyFans content creator Ava also teased of further portal shows. She told The Irish Sun: “I will go back and show Dublin my butt next if Dublin wants me to!”
