Hugh Grant Biography

On his sex appeal:
“I understand where the interest comes from. When I think about actors, I prefer to know who they're going to bed with than what their next film will be.”

On his relationship woes:
“I can be a bit of a gloomy bastard.”

On acting:
“I think film acting's just a miserable experience. It's so long and so boring and so difficult to get right so that what you need above all is incredible willpower and strength of mind.”

On his hair:
“I wasn't happy as a teenager at all, especially with my hair. When I went on French exchanges, all the locals would call me "Mademoiselle", and I never completely got over that.”

"I had my hair cut off by Elizabeth Hurley's hair person. I thought it would look butch. Unfortunately I looked like a butch lesbian.”

On his role in 'About The Boy':
"I have lived so much of my life as a London slacker. I did a lot of the stuff Will does in the movie."
