Sharon Osbourne has made her opinions on that awkward Hugh Grant interview heard loud and clear.
The Notting Hill star went viral after a majorly awkward red carpet interview at the Oscars, where he was stopped for a chat by model Ashley Graham, who was interviewing attendees for ABC, and seemed totally disinterested in the runway star’s questions.
The interaction saw him some up most of the answers in three words or less, and when she asked him what he was wearing, he hilariously (and incredibly bluntly) replied: ‘My suit’.
While the shockingly short conversation left viewers scratching their heads over his behaviour, Sharon has now weighed in to the debate.
Appearing on Piers Morgan’s Uncensored, she said: ‘I love Hugh Grant but he was out of order.’
Continuing despite Piers’ interruptions over Sharon’s praise, she said: ‘I think he’s a great actor, I will say the thing is if you don’t want to talk to press, if you’re bored by it all, don’t do the red carpet. That’s the way it is.’
Piers didn’t hold back either, labelling Hugh a ‘d***’.
‘Maybe I shouldn’t have used the D-word but to me he just behaved like a d***. He just treated Ashley Graham I felt with total disrespect.
‘And he pretended like the job of somebody on the red carpet, if you’re an actor at the Oscars is not to talk to the media, or if you have to, look like you’re sucking lemons.’
Despite viewers cringing over the clip, Ashley took the interview in her stride and shrugged it off.
She told a reporter: ‘My mama told me to kill people with kindness’.
Speaking to TMZ, she said that she had ‘so much fun’ at the star-studded event. ‘My feet hurt though.’
Elsewhere during her awkward chat at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles at the 95th Academy Awards, Hugh described the Oscars as ‘vanity fair’ before adding that he was excited to see ‘no one in particular’.
He also admitted that he could not remember the name of his tailor when Ashley asked him who designed his outfit before she asked him about his cameo in Rian Johnson’s Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.

But Hugh wasn’t in the mood for playing ball, and quipped: ‘Well I’m barely in it, I was in it for about three seconds.’
