Springsteen Makes Cameo In Couple's Engagement Photo

brucespringsteencouple0910.jpg Last year Will Ferrell popped up in a couple's engagement photo (the groom was a PA on his movie The Other Guys), and now The Boss is following his lead. Ed Dwyer and Jennifer Smith recently shot their announcement photo on the beach in Manasquan, telling APP they "kept putting them off" due to the crowds there all summer.

On September 20th they headed over to the spot they picked out only to notice that Bruce Springsteen was sitting on one of the benches. In what sounds like a scene from a rom com, the groom happened to be carrying a guitar and Bruce said to him, "Play that box," to which he responded, "No, you're Bruce Springsteen, so, here, you play." And he did.

The couple described the rocker as "real laid-back and chill," and the photographer said the shoot "happened organically, nothing was forced."

    You obviously were not at one of his recent shows. The guy has more energy than most people half his age. By the way, what is a rom com? One of those awful movies women like to watch that make guys want to vomit?

    Long answer: rom com = romantic comedy

    Short answer: yes.

    Since they were at the beach, I hope he played "Sandy."

    After which he was led gently back to his home by trained health-care providers, and then heavily medicated.
