When it was announced that Bob Dylan was to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature, it seemed everyone was talking about it.

Everyone but Dylan himself.

The 75 year-old musician has now broken his silence to The Telegraph about the international honor and his answer is as Bob Dylan as it gets.

“Absolutely,” he told the reporter asking if he planned to attend the annual ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden, on Dec. 10. “If it’s at all possible.”

The man who initially ghosted the Nobel prize committee with the skill of a modern day Tinder-romantic and removed all traces of the prize on his website also recently spoke to Sara Danius, the Permanent Secretary of the Swedish Academy.

“The news about the Nobel Prize left me speechless," he said. “I appreciate the honor so much.”

Congrats once again to Dylan, who according to the committee, may or may not attend the ceremony.

Somethings are better left as a surprise, I suppose.
