“We drank copious amounts of drinks at the bar,” Halle said. “We were trying to get to our room when we passed this little chapel. We thought let’s get in here, let’s see what’s inside.
She said when they walked in they had the crazy idea to cheat on her mom and take a picture of them and send it to her and say they got married.
Halle said that after taking the photo, they decided to post it on Instagram and wrote, “Well… IT’S OFFICIAL!” but included another photo so when someone swiped on it they would see “it’s 2022!” and would know it was a joke. She said that in five minutes they got all those congratulations from The Rock and Ava DuVernay.
“Nobody got it,” Halle said. “After 20 minutes we were like we were a**holes. Everyone believes it…so many people don’t slip. I didn’t know people didn’t sweep. Now I never do swipes again because I know nobody looks at shit.
