Hugh Grant -

Hugh Grant made an awkward impression at the 2023 Oscars. During his red carpet interview with Ashley Graham, he gave lackluster replies to standard questions. When she asked if he was looking forward to seeing anyone win, he replied, "No one in particular," and when she asked what he was wearing he said, "My suit," whom he clarified was by "my tailor." Graham asked about his appearance in 'Glass Onion' and he shut it down by saying, "Well, I'm barely in it. I’m in it for about three seconds," and after she politely thanked him for his time he awkwardly turned side to side and raised an eyebrow.
