How do you get Bob Dylan to talk?
Hint: it involves being hugged by a young Brazilian woman: Who was that girl, Bob Dylan asks.
SAO PAULO (Reuters) - The normally taciturn Bob Dylan was moved to words on Thursday night when a young Brazilian woman rushed on stage and hugged him during a concert in Sao Paulo.
During the encore of his second show in Sao Paulo, a long-haired woman ran on to the stage and embraced the star. A startled-looking Dylan hung on to his black Cordoba hat before a bouncer carried her away.
At the end of the song, he spoke to his fans for the first time in a two-hour show. “Thank you, friends. And I’d like to thank that young lady for coming up and joining us on stage.”
Then he started chuckling to himself and said: “Where did she go? I want to give her my hat. Don’t let her get away.”
