Hugh Jackman was on The Howard Stern Show yesterday, and he asked the actor a question that very few people would.
What was it? The Shock Jock wanted to know if it is true that he pissed in his pants when he was playing Gaston in Beauty and the Beast early on his career in Australia.
The answer is yes, The Greatest Showman did that, and then he shared the story about what happened.
Jackman was suffering from headaches due to dehydration, and his doctor told him to drink two liters of water every day before 5p.
Since he was not much of a water drinker, he did not know the effect that would have on him. Those of us who do know exactly what was going to happen. And it did.
During the first number, he was singing, and he had to lift Belle up. When he did, he felt a little piss come out. He thought he was OK, but then he had to sing to an F-sharp. He had to make a choice: hit the note or pee on stage. He chose the latter.
After he was done relieving himself, he looked down and was relieved to see that his red stockings looked dry. However, his boots were soaked because that is where all of it wound up.
Well, that was until the pee finally started to show. Thankfully, he noticed it when he went backstage a few minutes later.
What is Jackman’s take from it? He said, “And you know, nothing can embarrass you after that.” That is very true!
Neil Diamond has led a life worthy of a musical, so he got one on Broadway. However, it is not good enough for the big screen. So instead, the legendary singer is getting one with Hugh Jackman impersonating him.
Based on a true story, two down-on-their-luck musicians (Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson) form a joyous Neil Diamond tribute band, proving it’s never too late to find love and follow your dreams.
Song Sung Blue will be singing its way into theaters on Christmas Day. Because nothing says Jewish Christmas like seeing a movie about a Goy impersonating a Jew who sings Christmas songs.
Before Hugh Jackman hosted the Tonys, he saw his first Broadway play as he prepared to bring Sunset Boulevard to Australia, as seen in Sunset Boulevard and the Palace of Dreams. You could tell the 27-year-old was bound to be a star in that 1996 doc.
For years, there have been rumors that Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster have been having an affair since they worked on Broadway’s The Music Man in 2021.
Since then, they both filed for divorce from their spouses. Jackman was first when he announced that he was ending his 27-year marriage to Deborra-Lee Furness in September 2023. Foster filed for divorce from Ted Griffin after 10 years this past October.
Now that their marriages are over, they finally went public with their romance. People got exclusive photos of them holding hands after a dinner date yesterday in Santa Monica.
I have a feeling that now they are publically out, we are going to see plenty of shots of them everywhere. They are going to become really annoying, really fast.
And I have a theory. There have been rumors that Blake Lively was turned down as a presenter at the Golden Globes, which is why I am assuming Ryan Reynolds didn’t go in protest. And I also assumed that Reynolds’ Deadpool and Wolverine co-star didn’t attend because he was not ready to to answer questions about his love life. However, now that it has been confirmed that they are dating, I bet they will be walking the red carpets during awards season.
How long do you think they are going to last? I give them a year since she is a rebound from a long marriage.
We have seen Wolverine against humanity in Deadpool and Wolverine. So, it would make sense that Hugh Jackman likes to play Cards Against Humanity when he is not filming scenes with his frenemy Ryan Reynolds.
Well, when the card game found that out, they made the actor an offer:
Mr. Jackman,
We’re huge fans of your hard muscles and kind eyes. You are the best actor in the world.
Our offer stands: Please post a video saying you like Cards Against Humanity, preferably with your shirt off, and we’ll donate $10,000 to charity.
I think this is an easy request for him to fulfill, so I hope he does it. After all, it is for a good cause.
