Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas had a date night at the New York Rangers hockey game at Madison Square Garden yesterday. They did what they usually do at sporting events: make out, watch the game, hang with friends.
But Turner's real star-turn moment came when she appeared on the Jumbotron, and instead of waving, kissing her fiancé or doing something predictable, she chugged her wine for all to see. It was, of course, quickly immortalised on social media.
Turner herself posted Snapchat footage of the moment taken by witness Cory Anderson. "Send it for the starks," Turner captioned the 'gram that has already gotten over 4 million views on her account alone in the last 11 hours. On Barstool Sports, where the footage was first shared, it got an additional 3 million views.
There's roughly 7 million people watching (and maybe even rewatching) Turner chug wine at a hockey game.
While Turner clearly embraced the spotlight that comes with dating Joe Jonas and being a celebrity at a hockey game last night, she has talked before about how it fundamentally changed her life.
She doesn't consider herself to be someone really seeking a lot of attention.
'I appreciate the private moments more than the public ones; I don’t go out as much as I used to,' she told Glamour UK.
'I’m a hermit. As an actor, it’s important to be able to dissolve into a character, to maintain some sort of anonymity and it’s hard if you’re dating a Jonas brother. Well, I think they [the paparazzi] follow Joe—I’m just the tag-along!'
