Megafan bets her husband she’ll meet hero Jack Black – or she’ll change her title

A woman has bet her husband she will meet her hero Jack Black – or change her name.

Laura Precious made the bizarre deal with hubby Dan that she would shake the actor and singer’s hand within a year, or she’ll legally change her middle name to Tenacious after his band, Tenacious D.

But as the Hollywood actor arrives in the UK next week for his Spicy Meatball tour, she has just days left.

Laura, 44, from Whitstable, Kent, said: “Dan says there’s no way I’ll get to shake his hand – which has made me even more determined.”

The pair have drawn up a ‘contract’ saying if Laura wins, Dan has to add Tenacious to his name instead.

Laura has rewritten the lyrics to one of his songs and is planning to perform it on TikTok in the hope he will see it and make her dream a reality.

She added: “He’s only in the UK for a few nights- I’m seeing him play in Brighton but I’ll travel wherever it takes. I love him – he’s naturally funny and he’s got a good beard. He rocks.”

Alongside his latest hit film, Kung Fu Panda 4, Jack has recently teased a sequel to one of his most beloved films, School of Rock.

In an interview, he admitted he’s “ready” to revive the 2003 musical comedy, in which he plays a substitute teacher who forms his own band alongside his students.
