This Morning host Alison Hammond will reunite with Ryan Gosling on Monday as she interviews the Hollywood star about his new film.
The TV presenter’s first meeting with the 43-year-old Hollywood actor turned chaotic when she interviewed him and his Blade Runner 2049 co-star Harrison Ford.
The viral interview has since attracted more than 18 million viewers after the trio couldn’t hold it together and laughed throughout the segment.
At one point, Ryan was forced to leave the set to collect himself after being unable to contain his laughter while chatting with Alison.
They reunite this week, as Alison, 49, chats with Ryan and co-star Emily Blunt about their new film, The Fall Guy.
While Alison hopes to interview Ryan and Emily about their action film, the actor has other ideas as he takes charge of the interview to avoid any possible chaos.
At the start of the interview, Alison asks, “Remember me, Ryan?” ”, referring to their messy interview.
Ryan, who insisted he remembered her, was forced to leave the set when he couldn’t stop laughing during the interview promoting the film.
When Ryan asked Alison if he had seen the original Blade Runner, the presenter honestly replied that she had never watched it.
Alison recalled: “[Ryan] I asked the question, “Are you a big fan of the movie?” “, and I said, “Well, no, I’m not! Am I telling him the truth? Am I lying? What should I do?’
“But I thought, you know what, my mom always says, always tell the truth, so I said, ‘I’ve never seen him, baby,’ and I think that moved things forward.
“He started laughing and I started laughing, and that settled the moment.”
“Afterwards, I said to myself: “Was it good? Do we have anything? I don’t think we have any content on the film.
“I remember my producer saying to me, ‘Don’t worry, we can do something with this, everything will be fine’.”
The video, which has now been viewed more than 18 million times, catapulted her career and she received messages from stars including James Corden about it.
It comes after Alison had to do a double take on Friday’s episode of This Morning as she was presented with a wax image of herself.
The model was introduced to him by Dermot O’Leary, who said: “Are you ready for a double dose of Hammond?” before the big reveal.
Impressed by the waxworks which will go on display at Madame Tussauds in Blackpool, Alison joked: “I always wanted to have a twin!” adding “It’s an honor.”
The mother-of-one was filmed during the making of the waxworks where she repeatedly posed for the sculptors.
In a film about the creative process, Alison said: “I can’t tell you what an incredible experience it was to watch myself. I know the color isn’t available yet, but honestly I can’t wait to see the finished product.
Upon her first glance at the finished product, a stunned Alison said, “Oh my God! Should I stand next to her?
“I see myself from behind, it’s so weird I can’t tell you!” I think she’s prettier… How does it feel to eat a sandwich Alison?’
Dermot replied: “It’s quite upsetting, I have to be honest with you! I’m not sure I could handle more than one! »
Alison later said: “Can I just say the team at Madame Tussauds have worked so hard and you have done such a great job – I can’t believe I’m looking at myself!
“Look at the eyelashes!” Well go see her, she’s going to be in Blackpool, go take a selfie with her, she’s adorable!’
Meanwhile, Alison is said to have a new lease on life after finding love with handsome 6ft 10in model David Putman, who is 23 years her junior and also a masseur.
Earlier this week the surprising way the couple met was revealed, with their relationship blossoming from the moment Alison booked David a £150 massage.
According to The Sun, Alison was a client of the professional masseur and it was during a session that the two first hit it off, with the presenter visiting David in between her busy filming schedule.
Their friendship then reportedly turned romantic late last year, despite the 23-year age gap between them.
Originally from Krasnodar in Russia, David left the country for the UK in December 2022 to escape the frontline following President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
A friend of David’s told the publication: “When the war in Ukraine started, David’s mother Olga started to worry. She didn’t want her boys to get dragged into this. She wanted them to be safe, like any mother.
So David moved to the UK, where he now lives with his uncle Nigel Putman, 71, in Slough, but he spends a lot of time in London for work.
The friend explained that David was able to avoid being drafted into the Russian army because his father, also called David, is from Slough himself and so the young masseur already had British citizenship.
