If you’re ever lucky enough to be presented with a golden opportunity, then quite simply, you bloody well have to take it.
Hugh Jackman took such an opportunity. He could have simply walked on by Channel 10 reporter Jessica Turner as she gave her piece-to-camera, yet instead decided to engage in what kids are calling ‘the photobomb’, wrapping his arms around the stunned reporter, before running off and yelling “Sorry!” over his shoulder.
Jackman was furthering his good work for ‘Straya – which includes teaching Americans how to not eat Vegemite like fucking morons – by launching a program at the Children’s Hospital in Sydney to help sick kids keep up with their school work. [Get amongst it HERE.]
On her website, Turner describes her brush with Wolverine:
“As soon as I spotted Hugh coming out the door, I got into position and started my spiel. I knew timing was going to be everything, and my not stuffing-it-up ,was going to be pretty important because I’d only have one shot!”
“I kind of heard someone yelling behind me, but like all reporters, I’m practiced at blocking out any background craziness and staying focused, so I carried on.. Until the Wolverine practically had his arms around me! “Photobomb!”, Hugh yelled. I was so shocked, I couldn’t believe this mega-star just punked me! I couldn’t help but laugh.”
Hugh Jackman’s photobomb might have exponentially increased public awareness of the ‘Back on Track‘ program, but hands down the greatest thing to come out of this story is finding out Sandra Sully favourites her own tweets:
We checked. They’re both her.
