In the same way, Janet remembered how that moment was lived. “When Will came on stage we were like everybody, ‘oh, this is funny.’ ‘He’s going to pretend to slap him and Chris is going to be stunned.’ And then it was like ‘okay, it’s over’. And he went back to his seat and started yelling… that’s when, of course, everybody said ‘oh my god, this is real’”.
