A 20-year-old Canadian woman has claimed a $5,000 prize set by Kodak for the first person to find the boy who was pictured attempting to give actress Megan Fox a rose. [Ed. PHa here, we've also confirmed with Kodak that a second winner will be announced and each will get the $5000 cash reward. We expect an official release in an hour or so.]
Kim Falardeau, a Montrealer, has been contacted by Kodak, who are planning to announce the win soon. She received a phone call from the company at around 11.30am (CET) on Thurday 25th June. She had received emails from crafty bloggers pretending to be from the company in an attempt to gain information.
Falardeau originally found the boy after hearing that his name was ‘Harvii’. After a quick search on Facebook, she added him as a friend and informed him of the competition.
“When the picture came out last week, someone posted as a comment, saying: ‘I think his name is Harvii’,” she told me, “since the pictures were taken in London, I did a search for people named Harvii in London on Facebook, and found him”.
Harvey’s cousin, 18-year-old Holly Bramley, confirmed that he will be flying to New York tonight with his mother and her friend to meet Megan Fox.
