2:00 Impressed when he blatantly said "... I think it's the Hollywood way. As long as you make money, they don't care what you did."😂 I would like to see him on stage together with Ricky Gervais roasting themselves and other people😂🤣😂🤣
Hugh completely flipped the script on this one by owning it! We liked him even more! He didn't run to rehab or lie he manned up by turning himself into a charming but naughty little boy!
He gives an impression as an honest & charming a-hole, who is self-aware and struggling with his a-holeness. Honestly I'm not sure how much of it is real, but I can't help to be charmed by him🤦🏼♀️
He was arrested on my birthday - for a few years afterwards, my friends sent me personalised birthday cards with his mugshot on them, showing the date. 🎉
It was one of the top movies at our household at the time. My dad and I rented Nine Months VHS dozen times at least. Loved Hugh ever since. He's refreshingly honest, very grounded and his dry British humour is just a cherry on the top.
As someone from the LA area, there was certainly a lot of sympathy for him here at the time, since everyone knew how bad crime was in certain areas. I kept seeing/hearing comments like, "Why aren't the police investigating the serious crimes instead of looking in someone's car?"
I get that "we" like him now, and YES! he's done apparent growing and wisening over the years- but more important than his one personality- PLEASE go back and look at the archival footage of how the case was handled in the media, and the press surrounding the other party... "Surviving"? Give me a break... He was treated as a "charming bad boy"; chuckling ,grinning, paying, and playing all the way back to Hollywood's good graces.
The way media treated him favorably is because of his honesty and humbly apologetic demeanor. Prior to his interview with Jay Leno, the media talked in a very different tone.
What's so strangely admirable about him simply apologizing and not making excuses for his behaviour? It's just admirable. We're humans. We all do things we regret or shouldn't have done. We're not perfect. It's strange that the interviewer believes it's strange to not make excuses because the norm should be to not make excuses for one's behaviour as opposed to always make excuses.
thehoneyeffect All the money she got from interviews and appearances led to something positive. She was able to buy a house and send her children to private school. She even thanked Grant for it.
I don't know how they survived scandals when the whole world knows what you've done, having your name splashed about everywhere in a compromising situation.. everyone having an opinion on you.. I had said I liked Hugh Grant as an actor. I don't know how any of these people have lived with the paparazzi chasing after them. Agreeing to an interview is one thing but being chased and forced is quite another.
It wasn't the paps fault that he picked up a prostitute by kerb-crawling and got caught while being given a blowjob. That's just asking for trouble, especially if you're a well-known face.
Wait what happened? He picked up a prostitute? That's bad? He's got to put the hair shirt on and have a mope because he attempted to pay for a sex act? What is this shit?
Emphasis on strangely.. All while dating E. Hurley. I will say no more as to this might already might get deleted so much for the truth Was the word evolve used in this interview!
Why would you apologise for picking up a prostitute, unless you tricked,abused or harmed her in some way? Good on him for not apologising, legalize prostutution guys - sex workers are workers and need rights!
because he did a bad thing. We look to our celebrities for guidance. How are we meant to live our lives well if they do bad things and don't apologise for them?
He screwed up but all has been forgiven with his great performances. Just an embarrassing experience. Who else can admit out of all other actors? Rich people problems.
She did. Over a million dollars and was able to send her children to private school. I believe she ended up remarrying as well. The whole situation is a bit bittersweet to me but I am happy that she capitalized.
Yes he did - he paid a prostitute which was a criminal offence. And he cheated on his partner - which was even worse, morally speaking. Unless you have no sense of moral code and ethics.
the honesty and warmth in that last line was quite moving
2:00 Impressed when he blatantly said "... I think it's the Hollywood way. As long as you make money, they don't care what you did."😂 I would like to see him on stage together with Ricky Gervais roasting themselves and other people😂🤣😂🤣
"As long as you make money, they don't care what you get up to."
Hmm, he might be right
Install a Friend "Might be" right? Lol
it itsn't called show-business for nothing.....
Even with children.
Well that's how Harvey and Matt Lauer survived for decades!
Absolutely
wow i teared up at the last line. what a guy, he really really meant it
That interviewer is horrible at his job. He keeps interrupting Hugh when he tries to talk. I hate interviewers like that.
융융유유 - he’s deaf... haha
Ice Cream I hate people who look for something to complain about. You couldn’t do half as good of a job as he does
Try Oprah, Tyra....hihi
@@beneyboo3800 great, then i hope you never complain about anything in life unless you could make it better
@@beneyboo3800Anyone can do a better job 😂

Speak for yourself

Obviously a woman with very low standards. She will accept any man no matter how many STDs he comes with.
You must be the prostitute he hooked up with.
You must be the prostitute he hooked up with!
He has a serious manner about him yet when he starts taking He doesn't take himself seriously..he laughs at his flaws. Humour gets him through I think
He was arrested on my birthday - for a few years afterwards, my friends sent me personalised birthday cards with his mugshot on them, showing the date. 🎉
Goddam that’s a candid interview. Hugh Grant is a brave and charming man.
That last line is truly if you love her, let her go in practice
Well handled this guy has an honesty about him and women just adore him
It was one of the top movies at our household at the time. My dad and I rented Nine Months VHS dozen times at least.
Loved Hugh ever since. He's refreshingly honest, very grounded and his dry British humour is just a cherry on the top.
seems like ur dad loves him even more..
Fat Joe this attempted joke is fine only if you're not past middle school
i'm already 5
Fat Joe: No, I think your IQ is 5.
Saw that movie for the first time because of this comment, so thanks.
What a great interview, and Hugh comes across so well
He'd be a funny guy to have as a friend, for sure. I kind of like him.
He is even more attractive now.
Greatest media recovery ever. Smooth save.
Lol his face at 2:21 like "where is this question going?"
I want her to be happy ... 😍 ... what a lovely guy
‘’Cant believe they bought my bullshite, but they did” About a Boy 👦
He is amazing gentleman such an inspiration how he handled everything love this man♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Gentlemen don't pick up seedy hookers when their girlfriend's away 😏
Hugh is so dam handsome and charming.
As someone from the LA area, there was certainly a lot of sympathy for him here at the time, since everyone knew how bad crime was in certain areas. I kept seeing/hearing comments like, "Why aren't the police investigating the serious crimes instead of looking in someone's car?"
The interviewer does not get Grant's jokes at all :-) must be an American :-)
Ava yet this site you’re on is an American based one. Funny how you anti American slobs sure love American products
Ben EyBoo USA USA USA 1776 USA USA 1776 🤓
I'm American. I get it 😊
You don‘t know what you are not getting, because you are not getting it, thats the thing…
what a bad interviewer

Lol the media in England murdered him. And hacked his phone to get more stories.
I love Hugh Grant he is just a funny unapologetic guy
I love the English actors so much.

He looks great!
He keeps it decently classy.
God I love this man
Nine Months is my favorite Hugh Grant movie
Saucy minx. Its always the prim and proper ones that are dodgy on the down low
Amo Hugh Grant ❤❤❤❤
We are all like brother and sister ♥️😂😂😂Hugh Grant and Elizabeth Hurley wanted her to be happy ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Just love him ! Such an icon ❤
Hugh Grant is my spirit animal.
never knew how he survive that scandal and rise above it
lol @ "I don't know who I was supposed to be apologizing to" when he had a girlfriend at the time
"She's a .... a good egg." High praise indeed.
I just ADORE HIM 😍
You could apologize to your fiance at the time.
You can still see Thorpe's mannerisms here and there.
Norman Scott wrote his autobiography. It's called Scott of the Arse Antics.
He was soooo handsome
Cheating on Liz Hurley with a prostitute is nuts.
Nine months is one of my favourite movies
In the days of social media, apologies and taking ownership don’t work anymore
Nothing works if you're racist!
Quintessential randy English dude... Plays English fops so well...
I hope Ebony Brown is happy and her life is great
Divine Brown
thehoneyeffect All the money she got from interviews and appearances led to something positive. She was able to buy a house and send her children to private school. She even thanked Grant for it.
"As long as you make money, they don't care"
That means a lot more now..
"A tiny Flat in Earl's Court". Earl's Court is a well to to area, so one must still have some dosh to afford a small Flat there.
It wasn't back then.
Rick moranis never aged
Funny guy. I Grant him that.
I wish Hugh grant and Larry david work on a show together. Two grumpy actors with a great sense of comedy
Hun grant ganaste un año mas
Pretty much every guy I know has been to a prostitute.
I don't know how they survived scandals when the whole world knows what you've done, having your name splashed about everywhere in a compromising situation.. everyone having an opinion on you..
I had said I liked Hugh Grant as an actor.
I don't know how any of these people have lived with the paparazzi chasing after them.
Agreeing to an interview is one thing but being chased and forced is quite another.
Read up on Hugh's work with Hacked Off. He literally wired himself to record and expose the extent of the UK's hacking schandal.
It wasn't the paps fault that he picked up a prostitute by kerb-crawling and got caught while being given a blowjob. That's just asking for trouble, especially if you're a well-known face.
I have many go to movies and I have to admit mickey blue eyes and about a boy 2 of my go to movies
Ive always wondered why he chose to live in London instead of LA, for he made lots of movies in the US
Because LA is incredibly fake
@@rumblefish9 in what way? A guy like him fits in London perfectly, I Guess
Because he's British, and he was born in London might have something to do with it.
Wait what happened? He picked up a prostitute? That's bad? He's got to put the hair shirt on and have a mope because he attempted to pay for a sex act? What is this shit?
He was far too indiscreet about it. Couldn't he have taken her to a hotel?
That interviewer sucks at his job. He keeps interrupting Hugh.
Didn’t expect that awkward ending.
🇹🇷Türkiye'de de hayranların olduğunu unutma lütfen buraya gel seni çok seviyoruz❤❤❤😘😘😘🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
How can you not like Hugh Grant! I don't give a shit that he bought a prostitute. He is a hell of a nice guy.
what he did was probably legal in the UK
You're certainly wrong.
Handsome man, very charming!
Endearing
Emphasis on strangely.. All while dating E. Hurley. I will say no more as to this might already might get deleted so much for the truth
Was the word evolve used in this interview!
I’d have loved to see the kid he had with Liz Hurley.
Hugh Grant te amo lakaaaaaaaa
Created the catchphrase : is this a Hugh Grant movie? Not Pretty Woman homage?
You should have apologised to Liz , your girlfriend at the time.
He’s been arrested for God’s sake. So many things say he’s not a good person but wow, is he still incredibly attractive.
So gorgeous
You didn't know who you should apologize to how about your lovely girlfriend / fiance Elizabeth Hurley
I wonder how much Divine charged?
He looks good for his age.
The bigger scandal was him having 8 kids in 6 years
he has 5
Why would you apologise for picking up a prostitute, unless you tricked,abused or harmed her in some way? Good on him for not apologising, legalize prostutution guys - sex workers are workers and need rights!

seems the clever money funding films are a little "concerned" about his health :-)
the morale is so hypocrite
Hugh didn’t-do a bad thing I hope the woman made some money for her self
She did. Over a million dollars and was able to send her children to private school. I believe she ended up remarrying as well. The whole situation is a bit bittersweet to me but I am happy that she capitalized.
Yes he did - he paid a prostitute which was a criminal offence. And he cheated on his partner - which was even worse, morally speaking. Unless you have no sense of moral code and ethics.
@@lex8799 if he wasn’t getting it, he went elsewhere for it
How do you remain friends with a man who constantly cheated on you? 🤔
Be a mature adult that's one. Not everyone stays vindictive.
Constantly?
Way to carry on The British brand 😅
Interviewer needs to not chuckle.
Now thats its not connect to the phone jack whats it sound like A HUE GRANT
What did he do wrong he picked a girl up .that are seen in many corners of Hollywood so who's in the wrong
A tiny flat in Earl's Court, Hugh? I'm sure that was terribly hard living in one of the most expensive areas in Central West London.
J Hallenbeck well 20 years ago it wasn’t a great and expensive area
Not in the 80s.
Yes, in the 80s, it was famous as the only area where Aussies could survive on bartending pay
You are a clueless twat .... Earls Court was a cheapish area full of bed sits for people who couldn't afford the more desirable areas
I actually think he's aged rather rough TBH
I agree
What we learnt: Elizabeth Hurley has a husband and she is still texting her ex regularly
I don't know why english and american people age so fast. Here in Brazil is so different. Come to Brazil, people, eat our food. We can help you. lol
So, lots of fatty foods, presumably?
You mean white people?
Besides, he's 57! Are trying to say people in brazil are wrinkle free at 60?
Sun damage - white people need to live and breathe SPF and then maybe we would age a bit slower
Oh please, keep your superiority complex to yourself.
Now they have a baby together 😭❤️
unphuckwithable No, they do not.
The obsequious kilometer histologically tug because stage whitely slip besides a exotic fibre. sneaky, puzzled duckling
So he went into a bunch school and told people he liked to rip off women clothes
Hugh is talking in American Accent here
Ol miss divine brown 🤔🤔wonder where sh gets her last name ??😆😆😆🤦🏾♂️
Hugh grant isn’t my cuppa.
He did nothing wrong.
Thus explaining why his mugshot was taken and fined $1,180 by a court.
