Hugh Jackman rewarded hundreds of fans who camped overnight to see him at the world premiere of X-Men Origins: Wolverine by surprising them with breakfast. Tempe, Arizona won the chance to host the red carpet extravaganza after the desert city claimed the most votes in an online poll, which Jackman launched himself. Throngs of Tempe residents proved their dedication when they lined up outside the Tempe Marketplace a day before Jackman arrived for the premiere ( on Harley Davidson motorcycle no less).
The generous actor decided to treat the crowd by personally placing a call to a local cafe and ordering a breakfast of coffee and pastries for 800 people. Paradise Bakery's assistant manager Arianna Arroyo says, "We were so surprised and amazed by the gesture, and I was thinking what a big challenge it would be to get everything done. They were thrilled and really excited because they didn't expect something like that.
People had made posters, were screaming at the media and it was so awesome to see. "There are a lot of people waiting just to see him and it's pretty amazing what is happening out there for just one man."
