Why Tom Hanks loves crashing weddings: ‘It’s my ego unchecked’
wedding-crashing on “Late Night With Seth Meyers” Tuesday, where the show’s host hyped him as a “man of many hats.”Namely that, whether he’s “invited [to the ceremony] or not,” Hanks is an avid wedding photobomber.The beloved — but recently controversial — film legend revealed his extreme nuptials-going hobby while appearing as a guest to promote his role in the biopic “Elvis,” featuring Austin Butler, 30, as the late music legend.“It’s my ego, unchecked,” said Hanks of his wedding crashing. “I just can’t help but think, ‘What would these people like more than anything else to remember this magic day of days? Oh, I know: me!’ ”Of course, Meyers, 48, screened a montage of Hank’s best wedding-crasher moments, with some dating back to the early 2000s — and a few even taking place internationally.Most notably, when in Rome filming “Angels & Demons,” Hanks accidentally crashed a ceremony because the Pantheon was booked by a wedding the same day they were filming.“This limousine pulled up, and it was the bride and the groom trying to ‘get me to the church on time,’” Hanks said, singing the last phrase.
