Hugh Grant reveals shocking reason why Sandra Bullock 'avoided' him
Hugh Grant gives rare insight into awkward encounter with Sandra Bullock
Hugh Grant has shared a candid story about his disastrous first meeting with Sandra Bullock, despite later co-starring together in the hit romantic comedy Two Weeks Notice.
During an interview with BBC, Grant revealed that he told Bullock a "disgusting story" during their initial meeting, which led to her avoiding him for nearly three years.
Grant, known for his charming roles in Notting Hill and Love Actually, said he had long admired Bullock and was excited to work with her. However, his enthusiasm quickly turned into embarrassment after their awkward encounter.
"We’d been dying to do something for ages,” Grant recalled. “But when we finally had our first ‘relationship meeting,’ I told Sandy a very disgusting story. She left the room — and I didn’t hear from her for three years.”
The Lost City star later confirmed her discomfort in a separate interview, explaining that while she appreciates Grant’s honesty, his bluntness can be off-putting. “He needs to curb himself,” she said.
“If people really heard what he thinks, he could offend just about anyone.”
Despite the awkward start, the pair eventually mended their dynamic and went on to share great on-screen chemistry in Two Weeks Notice, which grossed $199 million worldwide.
