Todd McKenney kisses Jono!

It's no secret that Jono's been on a quest to find someone to kiss before he has to shave off his Movember Mo (tomorrow). Kate Ceberano and hundreds of woman around the office turned him down... but then there was a light at the end of the tunnel when Todd McKenney burst into the studio and pounced on Jono for a kiss! Here's the photographic evidence:

... and a close up... Jono is clearly more enthused than poor Todd:

Todd has just announced that The Boy From Oz is back and will tour the country starting in Sydney in March. Head to ticketmaster.com.au or theartscentre.com.au for all the dates and details.
