‘I love that at the age of 6, I already knew that positioning myself as close as possible to the artist would increase my chances of being in the main photo,’ he added.  

‘They can’t crop you if you’re in the foreground of the artist. I obviously wasn’t taking any chances & placed myself unnecessarily close to Peter Combe’s crotch.’

Sam is a popular TV presenter who was once a children’s entertainer himself.
