seem to be just a
like a guy who just takes the moments
and attacks them and embraces them
- Yeah
- and loves them
and I say this because
our pals U2
- Oh my god
- were about to go on the show tonight
and there's a photo of you at the Oscars
- Yeah
- Photobombing U2
(audience laughs)
- and it's pretty one, one of the most
(audience laughs harder)
(asserting music)
(audience laughs)
- Where you jumping in there?!
- Yeah
(presenter laughs hard)
- (guest) I mean, either they're incredibly
short
- I mean they, yeah
- or...
I ran onto several publicist's back
and launched on Whoopi Goldberg
at the last minute
(presenter laughs hard)
and then you've got that final leap up
-What was going on here?!
- So I've got a friend, Helen, who's a
huge life long fan
I mean, as I am...
And then she's like: "Oh my God! They
really sort of soundtracked my life.
Please! Please! Get a photo with them."
And, uh,
(audience laughs)
I thought, it's my perfect moment,
I will get a photo with them
(presenter laughs)
- What did they, had no idea!
- No
- It's one way to get a photo with U2,
absolutely
- (guest) Exactly
- (presenter) This became like a meme
and it started going around the Internet
that this photo of you would end up
in photos all over the place
- (guest giggles)
- Here is the scene from the movie Gravity
with Sandra Bullock
(audience laughs)
I didn't see this scene, and you...
(audience laughs harder)
(everyone laughs and applause)
I guess, I guess she wasn't alone
- No
- she wasn't alone in space at all
- she, she
I mean maybe she's looking terrified
because she's seen that George
has Blasted-off and she's got to let this guy in
(everyone laughs)
(presenter makes screaming voices)
- Also if you go, I think it's like
a website. They call like, Cumberbombing
- Cumber-whatee?
Cumber Bombing
Sorry, something lost [inaudible]
(presenter laughs)
I thought it was cumber, cumber-something
No, No. Cumberbombing
- yeah, bombing
- and it's..., They actually have a thing
onsite where you could cut out a
Benedict, you can make a bookmark
of yourself
- (Benedict) oh Yeah?
So I have one in here
(audience laughs hard)
(Benedict clears throat)
(Presenter) You're like
(Laughs and Applause)
(Presenter) The first four pages of the
GOLDFINCH.
(audience still applausing)
It's really tough to get through this book
(Benedict) [inaudible]
(presenter) It's a really long book
(Benedict) yeah, say, do you just keep
looking at the Cumberbomb
- (presenter) Yeah I just keep looking at the - rather than the book
(benedict laughs) I mean I have a short attention span
It's a very thick book (benedict laughs)
This has been happening for six months
