Gold Logie winner Larry Emdur took to his social media on Wednesday with a cheeky post in which claimed an elderly woman had offered to pay him $10 to drop his pants.
The alleged incident took place in a public park while the 59-year-old Channel Seven star was taking a morning walk.
Larry said that the stranger had offered to pay him the money so she could see his ‘a***’ which is tattooed with the initials of last year’s Gold Logie nominees.
The fan favourite, who is notorious for sending up his fame on social media, had his bottom inked live on The Morning Show the day after taking home the coveted TV prize.
In the clip Larry can be seen telling his followers that he scared off the woman – only to reveal that he is holding a $10 note in his hand.
‘Good morning. The creepiest thing just happened to me [while] I was having my morning walk,’ he said in the Instagram post.

He continued: ‘A lady was walking towards me and she about 75-80 years old and she saw me – this is the weird life of someone on TV.
‘And she turned around and said to me, ”I’ll give you $10 to show me the tattoo of the Gold Logie on your a***.” And I said what?
Larry then explained that the woman repeated her request.
‘And I said, ”You’re crazy” – you want me to drop my pants in a public park for $10?
‘Anyway, I must have scared her off because she ran off in that direction,’ Larry said waving a $10 note.
Larry’s followers quickly showed their enthusiastic approval for his joke post.
‘Thank goodness you took the money!!’ one fan messaged.
‘This is GOLD,’ added another, while a third follower simply gushed, ‘Totally hilarious as always.’
The next day he was forced to make good on a bizarre promise he made the week before, stripping off his pants on live breakfast TV and getting a tattoo on his bum

Larry made headlines last August after securing his first ever Logie Awards on when he took home a Silver and secured the Gold at the 2024 ceremony at the Star in Sydney.
And the next day he was forced to make good on a bizarre promise he made the week before, stripping off his pants on live breakfast TV and getting a tattoo on his backside.
The Morning Show host found himself in a compromising position on Monday as he got the initials of other Gold Logie nominees etched permanently into his skin.
Larry lay face down on a portable tattoo table in the middle of the breakfast studio as co-host Kylie Gillies watched on.
The big reveal of Larry’s tattoo saw a line drawing of the Logie Award holding the TV, and within the TV were the letters ‘JM RI AK SK TA AL’.
The letters were the initials of the other Gold Logie nominees that Larry beat on Sunday night – Julia Morris, Robert Irwin, Asher Keddie, Sonia Kruger, Tony Armstrong, and Andy Lee.
The TV star has been a recognisable face on Aussie screens since the age of 19, but has never before secured a win at the prestigious awards ceremony.
In a milestone victory, Larry was crowned as the most popular presenter as he took home the Bert Newton Award in his first ever Logies win.
