Hugh Grant shuts down Ashley Graham at the Oscars 2023 in awkward chat
Hugh Grant shuts down Ashley Graham at the Oscars 2023 and rolls his eyes in a very awkward red carpet chat with the presenter leaving fans ‘cringing’ at the uncomfortable scene
Hugh Grant shut down Ashley Graham in a very award red carpet interview at the 95th Annual Academy Awards in Hollywood on Sunday.
The actor, 62, was not amused as he stepped out to the glitzy Los Angeles event, as he rolled his eyes in a chat which proved ‘painful’ for many viewers.
He kept his answers to her questions as short as possible and made his blatant disinterest well known in the uncomfortable clip.
Kicking off the chat, bubbly Ashley exclaimed: ‘What was it like to be in Glass Onion? How fun is it to shoot something like that?’
But she was met with a cringeworthy response: ‘Well I’m barely in it, I was in it for about three seconds,’ Hugh quipped.

‘It still must have been fun though, you had fun right?’ Ashley said as she powered through the one-sided chat.
‘Erm… almost,’ the actor replied as he looked away.
Grinning and bearing the interview, the model asked: ‘What are you wearing?’ While Hugh offered an insightful: ‘My suit.’
Viewers at home were left feeling rather embarrassed over the exchange, as they praise Ashley for how she handled the difficult situation.
‘That made me want to crawl under a stack of chairs,’ one person penned.
Another added: ‘ Ashley Graham deserves on honorary Oscar for putting up with Hugh Grant. Don’t walk the carpet if you don’t want to talk about the actual event.’
A third fan wrote: ‘Is Hugh Grant trying to give the most awkward interview possible?’
Meanwhile, another social media user joked: ‘I am going to need that ABC interview with Hugh Grant clipped for me immediately. That was art.’

Elsewhere, Hugh’s wife Anna Eberstein stunned in an elegant gown as she joined her husband and a host of other British stars at the event.
Anna looked incredible in a floor length cut-out dress with mesh inserts as she posed for photos alongside her husband.
The 95th Academy Awards will be hosted by late night chat show host Jimmy Kimmel and are being held at the regular venue of the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.
Top Gun: Maverick has been nominated for six Oscars including Best Picture, in a sign that Hollywood is finally listening to audiences and honoring box office hits instead of arthouse favorites.
The movie starring Tom Cruise is nominated for Best Picture along with Elvis, Avatar: The Way of Water, All Quiet On The Western Front and The Fabelmans.
While Cruise missed out on a nomination for Best Actor, the nomination for Best Picture could bring him his first Academy Award.

However, Everything Everywhere All At Once led the pack with the most nominations with 11 and The Banshees of Inisherin earned nine nominations. The two films swept the Golden Globes earlier this month.
Elvis, by Baz Luhrmann, has eight nominations, including one for Austin Butler.
Best Actress at the Oscars will be a toss-up between Cate Blanchett in Tár and Michelle Yeoh, who won the award at the Golden Globes for her performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once.
Ana De Armas also earned a nomination for her portrayal of Marilyn Monroe in Blonde.
While Cruise missed out on a nomination for Best Actor, Austin Butler (Elvis), Brendan Fraser (The Whale) and Bill Nighy (Living) all received nods.

All Quiet On The Western Front, a German-produced film, earned multiple nominations, as did Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, including Best Original Song.
Angela Bassett is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, as is Jamie Lee Curtis for Everything Everywhere All At Once.
Winners will be voted on by the roughly 10,000 actors, producers, directors and film craftspeople who make up the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
The academy added more women and people of color to its ranks after the #OscarsSoWhite uproars of 2015 and 2016, and it increased membership from outside the United States.
