Had you asked me six months ago what my favorite Hugh Grant movie was, I would have said That Englishman Hill Mountain Movie, in which he played to perfection his usual stammering, charming nebbish. However, since I visited the dollar DVD rack at my local Wal-Mart, I am changing my vote to a little-known, cheesy, completely ridiculous piece of fluff called The Lady And The Highwayman. It was a 1989 UK television movie and it features Hugh not only on a horse, but also in a puffy shirt, wearing a mask, brandishing a hat with a big feather, wearing an unfortunate wig, AND swordfights! And not a stammer in sight! You absolutely must find this movie. I’m serious, I love it. Don’t look at me like that.

My favorite Hugh Grant quote, to Jay Leno, after he was busted for wanting to do zexytimes with a prosty:

I think you know in life what’s a good thing to do and what’s a bad thing, and I did a bad thing. And there you have it.

At least he’s honest. What more is there to say? Happy Birthday!

Hugh Grant: The Englishman Who Stared At A Girl’s Hills Until He Got Dizzy And Fell Down A Mountain

I had to write this just so I could use that title.

Oh, Hugh.Â It seems thatÂ England’s 47-year-old baby-faced actor is entirely too fond of the ladies, specifically young pretty ones:

In one picture, his mouth hangs open and his eyes are unfocused; in another, he appears to be closing in on second year student Caroline Hargreaves, a 20-year-old blonde, for a kiss. [...]

It is nothing new that Grant likes to pick up random ‘posh totty’ for nostrings flings – some even said that was a reason why his romance with Elizabeth Hurley came to an end – but it is still unsettling to see him in action.

Usually, Hugh is quiet and discreet about his flings, but this time he must have been too entranced, or inebriated, to realize thatÂ most people have cell phones and most of those have cameras.Â Add the power of the social networking site facebook, and you’ve got a full-blown embarrassing photo problemÂ on your hands.

But wait, there’s more…
