Hugh Grant - Hot or Not?

Scarinae

One of my friends admitted to me the other day that she thinks Hugh Grant is hot - especially that scene in Bridget Jones's Diary (the first one) where you first see him coming out of the lift and they've got music playing and everything.
I pointed out that he looks incredibly sleazy in that scene, and she said she supposed she just goes for sleazy guys (which is kinda true)

Is there anyone else who actually finds him attractive? Is my friend a total weirdo, or are there loads of fans out there? Is it normal for a seventeen year old girl to find a 44 year old man attractive?

I am worried about her.

Johnny Depp. Brad Pitt. In their forties but good grief... Rarr.

They're exceptions. Hugh Grant is normal, though, and has to abide by the "if you're anywhere near the same age as my father, NO" rule.

But hey, if girls find the bumbling, foppish guy attractive, i can do that

forty isn't that old, guys. it's not like he's eighty and hunched over his cane babbling about how his shoes are stuck in his beard because he forgot to trim it yesterday - or was that twenty years ago?

... and he may be sleazy but that does NOT mean he's not attractive. (well, in my opinion, anyways).
*random partially related story* hugh grant was filming a movie across the street from my house. my mother walked up to the set and told the crew we were looking for the costume department and they believed her and let us in, so we ended up watching them film a take and then we got bored. i love awesome randomness like that. (she muttered to me "they're taking over our neighborhood for a day to film so the least we can do is infiltrate their set." i concurred.)*random partially related story*

Admittedly, the man is showing his age lately and he doesn't have the greatest teeth. Regardless, he seems to ooze sex appeal (sleazy or not!) ... I guess sometimes the flaws actually add to the effect :>

Oh yeah, he's incredibly telegenic.. imho ...

He's got the whole james bond esque, suave and sophisticated thing going on. Works well for him, IMO
