HUGH GRANT (1 of 4)
Age: 43
Personal style: Hugh Grant is one of the few men who is regularly described as being both a "fop" and a hunk.
The lowdown: Hugh has become every American's favourite Brit since his portraval of a dishevelled aristocrat won the hearts of Andie McDowell, and millions of moviegoers, in Four Weddings And A Funeral. But Hugh is not just a pretty face – he graduated from Oxford with a degree in English before finding his way onto the silver screen.
Hometown: London, England.
Family: Father James was a carpet salesman while his mother Fynvola was a teacher.
Where to find him: The right bars and eateries in Kensington and Chelsea. Of course, he also pops up rather frequently in New York and Los Angeles.
Ex-girlfriends: The inimitable Liz Hurley is the best-known of his former loves. They split in 2000 and Hugh has been "playing the field", as he himself puts it, ever since. He's also declared his adoration for his Two Weeks Notice co-star Sandra Bullock on more than one occasion, but their very public flirtation seems to be more fuelled by mischief than real romance.
Financial status: He raked in $13 million for his aforementioned collaboration with Ms Bullock, so it's fair to say he's in reasonably good financial shape.
What to avoid: Any mention of a certain Divine Brown, the Los Angeles call girl with whom Hugh was famously arrested in 1995. |
