Hugh Grant’s Opinion On His Different Female Co-Stars
Hugh Grant has a pretty great sense of humor but at times it crosses the limit and isn’t liked by many people. Recently, the actor tried to roast his Music and Lyrics co-star Drew Barrymore by comparing her singing abilities to barking dogs. But Barrymore didn’t feel bad as she think it was Grant’s love language.
In a 2009 interview with Elle, Hugh Grant spoke up about his relationship with some of the female stars he has worked with and how they dislike him. He praised Julianne Moore by calling her a “Brilliant actress, Loathes me (him) “. Speaking of Rachel Weisz he thinks she is ” clever, beautiful and despises him”.
Again in 2016, Hugh Grant was invited on The Graham Norton Show where he described the bond with female stars.
“Julianne definitely hates me, Rachel Weisz, I think we got on fine, I don’t know why I said that. Maybe I was going for a comedy triple. (Drew Barrymore) She made the mistake of giving me notes.”
