Huge Grant Doesn’t Want To Talk About Taxis

Hugh Grant was walking down a street in New York City last night and chit-chatting with some TMZ dudes.  Someone asked the actor what he’s been up to lately and he replied with a laugh, “wanking off on the Internet.”  It all seemed like a friendly exchange, until he got a bit of advice on the best location to hail a cab.

One of the paps had the unmitigated gall to tell Hugh that he might have better luck finding a taxi if he went in the opposite direction of where he was headed, at which point Hugh thanked him and then kicked a cameraman in the nuggets. 

It’s really weird video that you can see here.  I’m hugely impressed by the pap seen right at the end of the video who is so close to Grant and isn’t wearing a cup.

Now, it’s all speculation, but I’ve always thought that Hugh Grant was in the closet.  Maybe he didn’t want to be caught on film with his, uh, dinner companion.

  • Why didn’t the pap hand his camera to someone else and just kick that skinny bastard’s ass… oh he’s a celebrity, forgot, he’s entitled…

  • That was totally weird, it was like he kicked the guy for NO reason.. Maybe there was more footage that wasn’t shown but it appeared like the paps were being friendly?

  • we only saw the end of the exchange, not the full sequence so perhaps there was more to it, or maybe he doesn’t like the paps.

    And as friendly as the conversation seemed it does occur to me that he might not want someone to be making jokes about prostitutes at his expense, especially with his ‘divine’ history.

  • wait WHAT happened? I am so confused my this story… It is so effing hot here I just cant think normal.. did I just read that Hugh Grant kicked someone in the balls? that cant be right, that’s just absurd!

  • Honestly, wouldn’t you want to kick those idiotic TMZ parasites in the cock if they followed you around asking ridiculous questions?

  • Why are we assuming his companion was a guy? I’m sorry… but that looked like a womans face to me. Not a really attractive woman but it did look like a woman…

  • Hugh Grant isn’t gay, just very upper-middle-class English, which triggers the gaydar for a lot of Americans.

  • Bent as a nine bob note.Never been any doubt in my mind.Tries hard to cover.Doesn`t matter he`s gay but guess it doesn`t sit easily with romantic hero parts, the only roles he plays.Have to admire how hard he works at the publicity stunts to destroy his already flagging career!
