The Graham Norton Show never fails to disappoint when it comes to celebrity guests and their extraordinary party tricks. In a recent episode, we witnessed some truly impressive talents that left both the audience and viewers at home in awe.
The show kicked off with actor Hugh Jackman, who revealed that he used to be a clown at kids’ parties. While juggling was his speciality, he learned the hard way that not all children are appreciative. During an 8-year-old’s birthday party, a child called him out, proclaiming that the clown was “crap.” As a result, Jackman walked out of the party and left the wig behind, never returning to this line of work.
But Jackman proved he still had his juggling skills intact. He showed off his talent by effortlessly juggling a selection of oranges. The audience and fellow guests were clearly impressed by his agility and coordination. It seems that Jackman’s skills extend beyond his acting ability.
Next up was Eddie Redmayne, known for his portrayal of a wizard in the Harry Potter franchise. Redmayne shared that his party trick was a hidden talent. He had an incredibly long tongue that he could just about touch his nose with. Though he admitted it wasn’t the prettiest sight, the audience eagerly gathered around to witness this peculiar talent.
Another notable guest, Laura Linney, shocked everyone with her lunging abilities. With her hypermobile back, she was able to perform deep lunges and even tidy up the room with just her feet. The audience watched in amazement as Linney effortlessly balanced herself on one foot and picked up a bunch of grapes with her toes.
Not to be outdone, Asa Butterfield, the young actor known for his role in “The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas,” showed off his lightning-fast clapping skills. He revealed that he could clap much faster than the average person by using a special technique. By flexing his hands in a certain way, he achieved an impressive speed that left everyone in awe.
Annette Bening, the four-time Oscar nominee, surprised the audience with an unusual party trick involving her elbows. She showcased her loose joints by popping her elbows in a way that was both fascinating and slightly unnerving. The audience watched in delight as Bening demonstrated her unique ability.
The guests weren’t the only ones impressing the audience with their skills. Host Graham Norton himself displayed his magic prowess. With just an ordinary coloring book, Norton performed a magical trick that left everyone stunned. Each time someone blew on the book, the blank pages transformed into colorful illustrations before their eyes. Norton’s tricks brought back memories of the late Paul Daniels, a renowned magician in the UK.
The episode concluded with a display of basketball skills from actor Zac Efron. Despite admitting that he wasn’t good at basketball during his school days, Efron learned some impressive tricks for his roles in “High School Musical” and a recent movie. He wowed the audience by spinning a basketball effortlessly on his finger, showcasing dexterity and coordination.
It was clear that the guests on The Graham Norton Show had more to offer than just their acting abilities. With hidden talents ranging from juggling to tongue tricks to impressive physical feats, the celebrity party tricks on display were extraordinary and made for a truly entertaining episode.
The Graham Norton Show continues to be a platform where stars can amaze and surprise audiences with their surprising and outstanding abilities. Whether it’s juggling, clapping, or bending, these celebrities certainly know how to captivate an audience both on and off the screen.
