Steve-O calls it a sign from the universe, but it could also be viewed as willful ignorance.

Last week, the Jackass star revealed during an interview with the New York-based news website Consequence that he had planned to get breast augmentation as a joke but decided the day of his surgery not to go through with it after speaking with someone who is transgender.

On the day the scheduled surgery was supposed to happen, I was checking out at the supermarket, and the person ringing up my groceries was evidently transgender, and it struck me as a sign from the universe, Steve-O told the news outlet. So I asked the transgender person if I could run something by them, and I had a conversation with this person that had a profound impact on me.
