Isn't he cute?
I didn't quite get what he said about Jack Thompson that made the interviewer look like that.

Here's a partial transcript, francis.

Alex said that an interviewer on the black carpet asked him who should be nominated for Man of the Year...
...and I said "Well, I think Jack Thompson should be given a-- a shot, you know," and she just, like, looked... I thought she'd seen something on my collar, and I realized, I said, "You don't know who Jack Thompson is, do you?" and she goes (shakes his head) So Jack... (raises the award to Jack T.) Thanks, mate.
(edited to clarify)

If he gets any cuter, he's gonna be a hazard for computer-gazing accidents.... :thud:

Thanks! And you're right... the crowd wasn't exactly engaging him. Maybe they were still eating. :shrug:

Thank you for the transcript! I thought Alex said something really embarrassing but then it was the interviewer who was clueless - love that he's telling that story. :laugh:
