RUMOUR CONFIRMED

Australia is facing a critical shortage of Santas this Christmas.

Bah Humbug told the Rumour File on Monday that local shopping centre’s are in desperate need for jolly big men to get their red Santa suits on this festive season.

Jessica Vatoff from Scene to Believe confirmed the rumour on Tuesday morning.

“We are an event photography business … and we hire over 500 Santas every year, so this year has been really tough,” she said.

Ms Vatoff said the business was about 60 Santas short.

“All you need is a good ‘ho, ho, ho’ and a love for Christmas.

“We have the best suits, we have the best bellies, we have the best beards, we supply everything, so you just have to have a great attitude.”
