Few things can make you feel like you’ve well and truly made it like a personalised message from The Wiggles. It’s little wonder then that Tuka could barely believe what he was seeing when he received a personal congrats from the beloved children’s entertainers.

“I’m a little late posting this,” Tuka writes on Facebook, “but OMG The Wiggles sent me a ‘happy album release day’ message. Mind blown!! Not sure how I missed this, but I wish I could show you all my face right now as I am smiling from ear to ear.”

“I’ve watched it about 10 times in a row! They even throw down a beatbox. Gangsta. Much respect team. You guys just made my day, I owe you one.” Tuka hash-tagged the post with #LDTE, suggesting the skivvy-clad group were congratulating the Aussie emcee on dropping his album Life Death Time Eternal.

Meanwhile, as the original Wiggles lineup prepares for a special 18+ pub show in Melbourne, the homegrown children’s band were recently revealed as the one Australian band that actually rivals international giants Coldplay for ticket sales.
