Hugh Jackman answered questions from Laurent Delahousse, in 8:30 p.m. on Sunday, February 19, 2023. Between two forks of tatin pie, which he couldn’t resist the urge to taste, he took the time to very calmly answer the journalist’s questions. The latter also wanted to come back to an anecdote of the actor who had gone to a film set just after being operated on for a skin cancerat the level of the nose. “You are told that there is one thing above all that you must not do, and that is sing. But of course you sing and the wires jumped“, thus launched Laurent Delahousse to the famous actor.
With a smirk, Hugh Jackman simply replied “oui” to begin with. “I’ve always had a sense of the tragic, the dramatic, but the doctor told me not to do that because it would bleed. But me, I had to sing since there were people from all over the world who came from all over the world to attend this show. I said to myself: ‘it’s good, I’ll do it, I’ll sing the song’. While everything seemed to be going well, after a while I realized that I had blood coming out of my nose. So I had to redo stitches.”
Hugh Jackman on his wife: “She’s the bedrock of my whole life”
This awkward moment happened while filming the movie The Greatest Showmann by Michael Gracey, in 2017. During this same interview, the actor made a beautiful statement to the one who has shared his life for many years: Deborra-Lee Furness. “It’s the foundation of my whole life“, he slipped. “I met her on my first job. There’s not a single role or audition where I don’t ask her for advice. But the most important thing is that she’s my partner for life. We have two very beautiful children. That’s what I learned with her: you have to put your family first. That’s what’s most important to me.”
