Hugh Jackman and his wife of 19 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, did an interview with Australia’s Today Show to publicize the charity Deb founded, Adopt Change, which promotes adoption in Australia. Hugh and Deb are outspoken adoption advocates, having adopted their two children, son Oscar, 15, and daughter Ava, 10. On the Today Show, they talked about how they met, on the set of Australian TV drama, Corelli, in 1996. Hugh got all excited recalling how he first met Deb, which was cute to see.
They also discussed how it can be hard to see your partner making out with someone else on set and screen. Interviewer Lisa Wilkinson brought up the issue and then asked directly if there is “any Hollywood star that you’ve said to Hugh [don’t work with]?” Deb quipped “I’ve told his agent he’s not allowed to work with Angelina. I’m sure she’s very nice and I love what she’s doing – shining a light on awareness for adoption… just kidding. It just goes to show, if you get it right, if you pick the right partner then you traverse all those travails and challenges.”
Hugh laughed throughout and then explained Deb’s “two week rule” about how they don’t spend more than two weeks at a time apart. He said he went along with everything she wanted and that “we’ve managed to keep that.”
After that they discussed the infertility problems which preceded the adoption of their children, which they’ve talked about before. Deb explained that they always planned to adopt, though. “what people don’t know is that we were always going to adopt. We were going to have one and adopt one.”
Deb’s charity aims to simplify adoptions in Australia, and she and Hugh are committed to the cause, having experienced personally how difficult adoption can be. I was so impressed by how easily they interacted with each other. You can tell they adore each other and have a lot of fun together. If they ever break up I will be so sad.
Here’s the video of interview. They’re so cute, right?
Here are instagrams that Hugh recently posted of his dog and goofing off backstage.

Let’s see.. If they are so cute and wonderful why is the headline about Angelina and not them. I know she was joking’ but really why is Angelina and Brad named dropped all the freaking time. Seriously why?… Would this even be posted if she had not spoken that one line about Angie..and of course Angie’s detractors are all over this..
SMH..
Re ….the comment made by Hugh’s wife….
Hmm, maybe it’s a private joke between Hugh & his wife who probably knows the admiration that her husband has for AJ. Maybe they talk a lot about AJBP or AJ in their lonesome.
Honestly, at first I was annoyed by her comment BUT when I read it again, it did come across differently… I think it’s an old joke between them… as if the wife is jealous of AJ. I take it as a compliment for AJ this time.
AJ should really be flattered that most guys (single or not), gays, gals are really vocal about their dream woman (AJ).
These were some of Hugh quotes about AJBP:
1) Before he hosted the Academy, he said: “I’m pretty sure I’ll be getting to meet [Pitt]…I’ve never met Angelina, either. But I’m not allowed to say that or my wife will kill me, but I’d love to meet her.”
2) “I don’t actually have a joke for them (Brad & Angelina), I’m just contractually required to mention them five times during the show.”
regardless.. it is not a big deal.. but talk about your guy; and if you are tired of being asked about Hugh working with other women, then don’t name a specific person and have the press feed into that. She made a throw away joke’ but it will be used to attack Angelina.. No one is talking about anything she said in that interview. But the lead tag line will be all about Angelina. Angie is a married woman with a family.
IMO it sounded like a joke. Without context (meaning if people didn’t know that they are big on adoption issues, for example) and a sense of her tone, though, I can see how people can take it the wrong way.
I think her delivery was very much different sounding then it came across when I first read it. First of all, she says “I’m just kidding,” and it sounds like a playful joke. Especially given the playful banter in the rest of the interview. Glad I watched the video, but the title of the article was really misleading.
That’s the deal they’re using Angie name to get more publicity for this cause, just pathetic
Yeah, forget the orphans and unwanted children – no one makes a joke about my favourite film star!
Riiiight. Because Hugh Jackman needs more publicity. Honestly. It was a joke. It’s fairly well accepted that Angelina Jolie is a beautiful woman, inside and out.
Ugh, I used the wrong email again.
It was a funny answer to a question. Somebody needs to call the over reaction police.
Lol! Cute.
+1
+1000
Gotta love an over reaction!
This.
You answered your own question. Because mentioning Angelina’s name made it newsworthy, made people click on the story and maintained viewership on this blog. It’s all money, honey. Duh.
Maybe because AJ broke up one marriage already? Yes, I know, it wasn’t her fault, she didn’t even know Brad was married, she was shocked to find out, etc., etc.
If my husband was an actor, I wouldn’t be happy about him working with her either.
So you’re saying not to expect Angelina Jolie in the next X Men movie?
I wanna hug a koala!!!
Right?
Those claws can get you..designed for a ‘gum’ tree but still they are the cutest creatures!!!
I know…they ARE bears, after all… 🙂
…but so dang cute!
Koalas are not bears. They’re marsupials. And they ARE super-cute.
Robin, I was playing off the name “koala bear”, that’s all.
Claws? I thought you were talking about Hugh’s wife.
I’ve hugged one before – their fur is surprisingly rough and prickly! 😀
Luckily enough, so have I. The koala was not facing me as they took a picture, but I remember saying he was kind of heavy, like a sack of potatoes.
FYI, if anyone is lucky enough to visit Australia, you are only allowed to hold a koala in Queensland, it is illegal in New South Wales.
LeAnn Stinks, really? I live in Queensland and have never heard it is illegal to hold one in NSW. I remember the first time I held one, it was when former Brisbane Lord Mayor Sallyanne Atkinson was launching the annual Save The Koala Day at the rotunda in the Queen Street Mall. As you say, they are darn heavy. I felt at one stage that I was almost going to drop him, which would have been interesting for the tv cameras, but not me, lol. What I remember most is the lovely smell of eucalyptus permeating the fur.
Leann that’s not true. I live in South Australia and it’s perfectly legal to cuddle a koala here as it is in many Australian states.
@Palar and Tarsha..that is interesting re Koala holding as I remember something to the effect that pictures were not going to be taken holding them any more due stress etc..so often the celebs are standing by them ,like Hugh or by the carer/keeper…
It would be great to go and have a cuddle!!!
I wanna hug a koala being hugged by Hugh Jackman.
LOL!! Me too. He’s adorable.
I wanna hug Hugh while he hugs a koala. His nice wife be damned muahahahahaha. I’ll steal him instead of the feared AJ, she’s too busy with Brad, her job, her children, writing, etc. anyway.
Gosh I know she was joking but I wished she had named another actress
:/
Uh-oh. BALLS!
She was obviously making a light-hearted joke. Jaysus.
I wonder if she gets annoyed by questions like that, questions that insinuate that she should be worried about Hugh cheating on her. It’s kind of insulting.
These pics of Hugh made me smile. He seems like such a good dude..I hope he never disappoints me.
Well she’s fed it by this comment, hasnt she? Dumb ox
My goodness, Dottie. “Dumb ox”? Sounds more like you’re describing yourself, dear. 😉
And it is also insulting to name drop someone in reference to the questions. Especially since yes she is joking’; but detractors won’t see it as such and it will become something more.
@ dottie and Lisa2, do you really feel like *Angelina’s detractors* are on the forefront of this woman’s mind in the midst of an interview with her husband?
She was asked an awkward question and she answered it. If you want to be mad at the “haters” and their reaction, then have at it, but it’s not really fair to blame this woman for instinctively answering what was a silly question to begin with.
@Doofus-Exactly. As a woman, she should be constantly concerned with keeping her man faithful. Ugh.
Big time ballin’.
Kitten, whatever you do, DO NOT venture over to the Jolie-Pitt thread…
it’s become a “bash aniston for being homely and for her reproductive choices” thread.
BALLS TO THE WALL.
Big old beach BALLS. I swear some of AJ’S fans would scare the hell out of her.
Angelina Jolie’s fans seem to be a collection of the most humorless people ever, if this thread is anything to go by.
“I wonder if she gets annoyed by questions like that, questions that insinuate that she should be worried about Hugh cheating on her. It’s kind of insulting.
yeah, whenever I read that I get insulted FOR the celeb…like NO ONE is able to just keep a working relationship professional?!
biggety balls, baby…
Someone fill me in on BALLS! Dang it 🙁
Snarky, not sure who the original poster was, but one on here came up with a “BALLS!” as a way to lighten up the Jolie-Pitt and Aniston posts when people started up with the Team so-and-so nonsense. or when someone would bring one of the two actresses into a post about the other when there was nothing to do with her and people would get all CRAY CRAY.
you know, because BALLS are always funny, and it’s fun to say. try it, you’ll like it!
Lol no hasn’t talk about Balls.
Tiffany is the one who came up with “balls”.
thanks Kitten…props to Tiffany.
BALLS +2
I agree, Kitten. Enough’s been said about the age difference, what he sees in her, etc. etc. And doesn’t everyone have a crush on someone? My husband’s used to be Eva Green. Mine is currently Aidan Turner. 🙂
I guess I don ‘t spend enough time in the AJP/JA threads to understand it.
Exactly, bluhare. My Bf’s number one is J Law.
Mine is Hardy (and a slew of others lol).
I think a lot of people would name Angelina simply because she’s gorgeous AND accomplished. I doubt it had anything to do with fearing that Jolie would “steal her man” or such nonsense, and everything to do with her admiration of Jolie.
Tom Hardy never used to do it for me, but after seeing Mad Max…?
*drools* that man’s lips are so f-ing hot.
Yeah you have to see him in motion to fully appreciate how delicious he is. Sigh.
I don’t know what you are talking about, bluhare; once I saw Mr. Rochester, my eyes never wandered from him. Are there other people that some find attractive in the world? I hadn’t noticed.
Mr. R’s number 1 is a 19 year old Lauren Becall.
LOL you guys. And I’ve loved Tom Hardy for years . . . ever since I saw him as Heathcliff, Ms. eyre! Something about a wild beast he does so well . . . . . Aidan Turner has eclipsed him at the moment just because I’m watching Poldark.
Mr. bluhare appreciates my interest in 18th century men . . . except he won’t wear the puffy shirt. 🙂
Yes. And it was quite funny too. It’s a huge compliment for Angelina, and it’s a sweet thing for her to say considering all the nasty and offensive things she must hear about herself all the time.
Precisely.
Amen.
I really have a hard time remembering there is a Jennifer Lawrence. It sounds crazy but I don’t think I have seen one movie with her in it.
But I do know who Jude Law is..so imagine my confusion (ok..and maybe my hint of kinky intrigue)
LOL. I’m sure even my BF would admit that Jude Law is a very pretty dude.
My current girl crush? Ruby Rose.
I thought the same @Kim.
Love Hugh and deb, I think they would be fun people to have dinner/wine with.
I don’t know Rose either. I was reading celebrity blinds the other day and I have no idea why..because I had to google about 75% of the celebrity guesses that people were making. Jesus, I’m getting old.
I hate to admit that My girl crush is extremely unoriginal .. Scarlett Johansson for miles. Scarlett and a pre plastic surgery Tori Amos.
I’m going to have to reply to my own post because I have no idea how to reply to you Aussie Girl. I agree, they seem like a fun couple. I don’t know why some people seem offended by his wife. Deb seems pretty down to earth and quite lovely!
Unrelated..
This is so humiliating but.. I’ve been posting here for about a month now. I still can’t figure out why I can reply to some posters and not to others. I’m sure there is an obvious answer but ..hell if I can find it.
I like the Jolie-Pitts, too, but some of their rabid fans here need to lighten up! For all of the humor-impaired, it was a joke, a cute lil’ couple-y joke. And I bet even they’re laughing about this and will probably say so when they do meet the Jackmans.
If she gets annoyed at the question why throw a high profile woman into the mix that will guarantee people speculate more about her. She is also being disrespectful of Brad and their marriage.
That’s true, it is insulting for both of them. I was thinking how it is mainly insulting for Angelina, but yes, it does insult Hugh as well.
Men (and women) do seem to fall in love a bit with AJ when they work with her.
Yes, Morgan Freeman said this of Angie. Lol
To the haters, hello Furness said she was joking right in the interview. I think it was just her way if saying Angie is the epitomy who could snatch her hub if she wanted to. Lmao
She didn’t say it about Nicole Kidman.
They seem like great friends.
As much as I like Hugh and think he is a very genuine guy it is a tough choice with that Koala there!
Cute and Cuter!!!
True that!
Well, that’s a big beard he’s trying to pull off…
That beard has been nurtured and taken care of for decades now. I don’t see him getting rid of the beard.
I also can’t see the beard going without a fight. That beard is full of secrets.
It’s a shame that such a likeable guy like hugh would go through life with a beard. not necessary at all
The beard is also his best friend, not going anywhere.
Would he have the same career without the beard?
probably wouldn’t have gotten as many macho roles 10 years ago….maybe easier now
Yep.
This really pisses me off. Why is Deb assumed to be a beard?
Because he’s better looking?
When they got together he wasn’t.
Because he’s more famous?
When they got together she was the famous, sexy star in Australia and he was an unknown whippersnapper who chased her.
Because they adopted?
They have been open about their fertility issues.
Because he sings and dances?
I know guys in musical theatre who are as straight as they come and do this. Hell, most of old Hollywood sang and danced!
Because… Rumours?
Head-desk. I honestly think some bitter people he has knocked back had fragile egos that couldn’t take the rejection, so they started these rumours.
My friend’s parents know him. Not really well; but they’ve hung out with him, have driven him to the airport, and are good friends with his gay friends. Most of this couple’s friends are gay. They have amazing gaydar. They said that he comes across as 100% straight and talks about his wife in glowing terms all the time. They said his gay friends think he is straight and in love with his wife. If his gay friends in Sydney (who he’s known forever) think he is straight; I’m pretty sure he is bloody straight!
Sheesh-kebabs.
This.
It’s so much more common to see male celebs hook up with much younger women (George Clooney, Leo DiCaprio, and countless others) who are skinny and without wrinkles that some people can’t seem to accept or understand when someone like Hugh is attracted to someone different. So, they just shrug and assume she’s his beard.
Looking at that clip, plus knowing that she was a big star in their home country when they first met and seeing what a fun personality she has, I totally get why he fell for her. Especially since their values are such a good match, and they put family above all else. They seem like a really nice couple, and I would be quite sad if they were ever to part.
I love these two.
Deb obviously feels very secure in her relationship, as everyone in a loving, supportive relationship should, but it must get so tiring for her. She’s forever having it implied that Hugh will leave her for someone ‘hotter’ and younger, or that she’s only a beard. I think that would get to even the most confident person eventually.
That might be why she’s with her. She sounds very confident and fun.
+1.
As she is older than him and not beautiful to most people, there are always those two scenarios. I like them together, its nice to see a marriage like theirs in Hollywood
They seem like such an odd couple. I just don’t believe it’s real. I really think she’s just his beard and a really great contract is the secret to their 19 year marriage.
Didn’t they get married before he was famous? That’s a long time for a fake relationship.
Yes, that would be an amazing long con – especially given that she was the bigger star when they got married. Why is it that unimaginable that these two genuinely love each other and there’s no “contract” involved? Ugh.
That’s correct, FingerBinger. I remember when Corelli was made, and excited to see it. No one had ever heard of Hugh – Deborra-Lee was the star/famous one. I remember saying a few times throughout the series that he had ⭐️ written all over him, and you could see the chemistry between them even then. They are both very laid-back people. My hubby was involved in show biz here in Australia, so I’ve also met a lot of entertainers, including Deborra-Lee a couple of times. What you see is what you get. She is very confident, sometimes outspoken, but puts the work in and knows her stuff, and does not suffer fools gladly. She’s also very talented, genuine, funny, down to earth and gregarious.
This is why I also think they’ve had this conversation/joke many times. As she was telling it, you could see his eyes dancing and twinkling. He’s as mad about her as she is about him, and I believe their relationship is based on true love, respect, intellect, friendship, support, understanding, companionship etc., and not something as shallow as her age or looks. If they ever do split – NO!! – it certainly won’t be because she got old. I think she mentioned Angelina (as the “banned” actress) because, well, who wouldn’t fall in love with her? She seems mesmerising. Let’s just take it as a running gag, as I believe it was meant. Also, Lisa Wilkinson and Deborra-Lee are very friendly. I believe if any other interviewer had asked the same question, Deborra-Lee would not even have bothered answering it, and likely put the interviewer in his/her place for being so audacious.
Thank you! A lot of the subtext behind all these gay rumors is that he’s too hot for her. Ergo she must be a beard.
I honestly think if Hugh were gay or bisexual, he would say so.
ITA, I Choose Me.
Add me to the bunch who think it’s sexist that everyone assumes she’s his “beard” because she’s not a size-2 and twenty-three or something. They’ve been together since 1996 and seem really fun together. It’s horrible that we think so little of men in general that the assumption is that he’s still there because he’s gay. As if no straight man could love her when he has a plethora of options?! By all accounts, Hugh Jackman is a really good guy, i.e., neither a Ben Affleck nor some sexist jerkface from the comments section bleating about women not being skinny enough.
I Choose Me: Yes x 10.
I love him, even more because of his wife. Angelina Jolie is oficially the most irresistible person in the world, which makes the joke fit pretty well.
That made me laugh. I’d be scared if my wife went to work with Angelina too! AJ is gorgeous, who wouldn’t fall in love with her? And I mean, a lot of set romances start out while filming a movie. It has to be hard though, for any spouse, watching their significant other kiss, etc other people on set. Yeah, you can be comfortable in your relationship but I’d be weirded out by it too.
Ha! I don’t blame her one bit. But she should also know that if its in a man’s heart to cheat, he will find a willing accomplice to cheat with and it won’t matter if the world find the mistress attractive or not.
Yes, I remember when Beckham cheated with the nanny, that girl wasn’t very nice looking. Same for Arnold Schwarzenegger’s employee, she wasn’t anything special, I would’ve thought he would go for a hollywood actress type.
well as Rachel Ticotin might say “Eatin not cheatin!”
I love this couple and the way Hugh loves his wife – genuine love and respect between them.
I know she was joking about Angelina but this just gave the haters the chance to bring back 10 year old history and attack Angelina and call her vile names.
I will never understand to this day why Angelina is the punch bag for people when it comes to home wrecker thing – Angelina allegedly wrecked relationships and gets bullied by media and public, even though all of the parties involved all denied cheating.
Then you have other famous women like Julia Roberts, Rita Hanks, Courtney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, Laura Dern and many many more who goes free from the abuse. Why not attack men as well – there are several famous men who wrecked other relationships…
Those other famous women are not as pretty, talented or famous as Angelina. Also, the exes of the guy’s in question didn’t make a career out of a relationship that ended.
As for the males, it depends on the guy. Tori Spelling’s husband is not well liked by any means, but, yes, it’s usually the females that get the bad part.
Maya, not seeing any haters or anyone calling Angelina vile names on here. It came across as a joke and a compliment to Angelina regarding her sex appeal.
Because Angelina is a bigger star than those who you named (except maybe for Julia) and those affairs were with men also linked to celebrities. Also, if she is actually a homewrecker or not sadly isn’t important in the aftermath, she has that tag for the general audience.
But in this case I don’t think Deborah was refering to that homewrecker tag, but to the fact that Angelina is consider to be the sexiest woman in the planet.
Maya the thing is this, hardly anyone or no one on this post is bashing AJ. You and some others just seems to love to fuel a non burning fire. It’s like you’re obbsessed with keeping the feud going. Most people are over it but you can’t seem to let it go. And please don’t tell us about the hate for AJ on other sites; I’m referring to this site only.
I do agree Maya and I really wish people would give Angelina defenders some leeway and understanding and not freak out if they/we get overly defensive. Try to understand where we’re coming from, give us a bit of leeway and understanding/patience. It would be great if we could get to the point where people are over it, and people don’t use it as ‘proof’ to justify their dislike hatred of Angelina, but unfortunately maybe not here but on other sites, I don’t think we are quite to that stage yet.
They’re really an adorable couple.
Agreed. They’re quite lovely together (and even separately).
These two won’t break up, they’re an actual family devoted to each other and their kids. They remind me of Pierce Brosnan and his wife; people who seem to know they’ve latched onto something good and aren’t going to mess it up.
Every couple can break up.
No kidding. Obviously, what I’m saying is that I don’t believe that this couple ever will, that they’ve formed the kind of attachment that lasts. (Hope you didn’t eat that bowl of corn flakes this morning after somebody pee’d in them.)
You are the one who stated emphatically,” These two won’t break up”.Now you are say I don’t believe that this couple will .What will yo say next,” I am shocked they broke up?”
Yes, I really like that Pierce and his wife are devoted to each other, as well. To me, its about an emotional connection, not just physical. It is clearly that Hugh and Pierce have that emotional connection with their respective wives.
In context there’s nothing wrong with her joke. Culturally, AJ ‘s name is synonymous with unattainable woman. If she’d named another actress it would sound like Hugh specifically has a thing for that actress. But the whole cheating hubby/jealous wife narrative is tiresome to the point that even light-hearted jokes are ugggh.
I love this couple, they obviously have a very strong bond and I can tell he adores her, so cute! I see a lot of negative comments on other sites when pictures of these two show up, people always say he’s too attractive for her or he probably cheats on her, people put way too much emphasis on looks these days and it makes me sad. No she’s not stick thin but she’s still a beautiful and confident woman and very deserving of him, they seem genuinely happy and in love after almost 20 years, good for them!
Unpopular and superficial comment right here:
My husband is 10 years younger than me and smoking hot to boot. I’m not so bad myself, but I am older, and I look older and I’ve had a baby too. I like to stay fit and attractive for my husband, not because I’m worried that he will cheat on me, but because I want to be who he wants to be with. I suppose that’s very 1950s of me.
I’m happy for Hugh and his wife, and they do seem like a great couple who meet on solid, common ground. But if I were her, I would work on staying up on keeping fit and as attractive as I could be.
Fire away…
No firing from me. I get it, and I just feel better when I’m fit and not standing in front of a closet miserable trying to figure out what to wear. But maybe she does work on it, and this is as fit as she can be.
It’s important for a couple to stay attractive for each other. If nothing else, being healthy and fit with age is crucial to an ongoing sex life, which is paramount to keeping the romance alive. There’s nothing sexist or superficial about two people working at a relationship.
While I see your point, and there’s certainly nothing wrong with staying fit and not wandering all day in dirty sweats, I do wonder what happens in marriages which are so dependent on physical attraction when somebody gets hurt or has a long term illness. I’d hate to lose my hair to chemo and also have to worry about my husband screwing around on me because I no longer pass some sort of attractiveness test.
It’s hard to talk about this without it sounding superficial, but every couple decides for themselves what’s attractive. There’s no universal standard. But it’s hurtful to your partner to be deliberately unhealthy, in my opinion.
No fire as well. It’s good to take care of ourselves (physically) because, if the relatioship doesn’t work, we’re fine to find another, or to look in the mirror and like what we’re seeing regardless someone else’s opinion.
How dow we know that he doesn’t think she is beautiful right now? I certainly hope he does. (This comes up sometimes with Pierce Brosnan’s wife because of her weight, or Jennifer Garner right now: the idea that there is only one type a man finds attractive, and it’s not only a conventionally beautiful and thin woman but also one who is always dressed and made up to the nines. I have had several different body shapes during the 25 years I’ve been with my spouse, and there’s been no correlation between the healthinessss of our marriage and my adherence to conventional standards of beauty. Nor have I only found my spouse beautiful when he looks like a male model, for that matter. Beauty and love are not that simplistic.)
Why do you assume she is not fit?
In this day and age if you are not anorexic you are not fit. Disgusting.
Even if a man doesn’t cheat, being and working with a woman he adores can unsettle his marriage. When you get to know another woman and come to admire her for whatever reasons it can make you rethink the person you have in your life – make you feel dissatisfied.
That’s a real danger apart from any infidelity. Insecure women and men do not like to be compared to those they fear are “better” or “more” in some way than they are. Joking is how they deal with a real fear.
Never a truer word spoken than in jest, maybe?
The only reason this was posted was due to the overwhelming Angeloonies here. I don’t really get her appeal, she is an okay actress who does movies I’m mostly not interested in seeing. Her humanitarian work is commendable and wonderful but I’m meh when it comes to her filmography.
But anyways Deborah was clearly joking. Lighten up Angie fans!
LOL And yet, “the “only reason this was posted” was because Angie’s name was mentioned…And btw, its not only posted on this site. Its aaaaaaaaalllllllllllllll over the net.
I think Dali Jackman is my favorite of the entire Furness-Jackman clan, Deborra-Lee and Hugh are tied for second place.
Personally, I think it’s rude and feeding in to the Angelina is a temptress who will steal your husband schlock.
Clever Girl….
Oh, Snap! 🙂
I really love all the instagram and FB pics of Hugh showing his true age and the fact that you know as an actor he has to dye his hair and exercise and look young just like everyone else lol…I truly love this couple and as a certified angie fan for life, I think she was clearly joking and it was funny because I actually would LOVE TO SEE AN ANGIE/HUGH MOVIE haha
Me too! Hugh is number one on my list and AJ is my number one girl crush.
I’m watching Access Hollywood Live and while doing a hot topics section they are discussing this.Some guy just called Angelina a woman stealer and a Black widow.Sheryl Lee Ralph implied Hugh must have cheated before for Deb to even joke about an actress being off limits.Billy and Kit both said their spouses would never say a co host was off limits to work with.
If Deb had mentioned any other actress this story would have no legs.
@ Colette-THANKS, I OWE YOU ONE! Access Hollywood ‘Live’ is coming on in my neck of the woods in about 10 minutes, so I ‘ll def tune in 😆
She is obviously joking and I thought it was funny. However, Angelina haters are going to love this.
She looks like a normal woman her age (possibly a little plastic-y from peels or whatever) but the thing is that Hugh looks SO good for his age. I know a couple where the wife is about 10 years older, maybe a bit less, and she really does look her age after some poor health in recent years but the husband is like a frickin vampire! He has a really youthful energy too, so when i see them together it does unfortunately look like he’s brought his mum/auntie for an outing. But they seem genuinely happy. I have to wonder though.. any man, no matter how in love he is, must see that their wife has become frumpy/old looking. I wonder if they wish they would get a makeover but would never insult them by asking.
I know Deborrah isn’t a supermodel but from what i have seen of her she seems like a really sexy woman – confidence and personality for miles. Plus she doesn’t look half bad for a 60 year old!
(Superficial) people seem to never be able to understand why a gorgeous, famous person would be with a non-famous, ordinary-looking person. Look at the chemistry between those two; it’s OBVIOUS why they’re together.
Why is he with her? Because he found the love of his life; that’s why.
Agreed! They obviously love each other to pieces and are happy. I don’t get the need some have to try to dissect it or look for anything else there.
For some reason I thought these two were separated….who am I thinking of then? Oh, Patrick Dempsey.
Off Topic:
I’m shocked that this site doesnt have a thread about kelly rutherford getting her kids for the summer and the first thing she did was kiss her new man in front of them while they stood looking on
Angie may be a lot of things but she’s never been a beard. So I don’t think ol’ Deb has anything to worry about.
I remember 1st time I saw Tom Hardy
…he played Robert Dudley n “The Virgin Queen” on PBS. omg he was So young.
What caught my attention was his mouth,
it’s gorgeous.
just what I said above…THOSE LIPS. YOWZA.
We’re soulsisters, doofus. That MOUTH….good Lord. And he’s gotten so much better looking as he’s gotten older, it’s ridiculous. Honestly, I just want to rub my face in his beard and mouth.
amen, VC!
It’s 7:15am here and most of my family are still sleeping and as soon as I read the headline at the computer I said out loud “oh for f**k sake!!” Almost slamming my coffee cup down hard on the kitchen table. So I may have disturbed the peace early this morning as even though I got the feeling she may be joking, we all know this will be used to attack Angelina. Anyway, Hugh and Debra seem very committed, so..
Overly invested?
Ha. I think Angie is the least of her problems.
Dali is so unbelieveably cuuuuute!
FFS! There are lots of women far more attractive than Angelina Jolie. I just don’t get the comparisons to her. Cant see the attraction.
I agree. IMO she looks like a skeleton. Her hands and arms freak me out.
lile at least Angelina isn’t stocky with beady eyes and a massive Jay Leno chin. Ever notice how all homewreckers like Aniston look chunky and/or like a tranny male?
They are so cute together. Love them.
Smart woman. All of AJ’s long term relationships have been with guys that were with someone else when they met. She has no qualms about being with a man (or woman) who is coupled up with someone else. As a matter of fact, she seems to prefer it that way. IMO it feeds her ego. I used to know a girl like that. It was a sport to her.
Bullshit lile. Angelina has NEVER been with a taken man. Never. Put down the tabloid garbage or go back to Anistonloon-haunt FF. Btw, all of Aniston’s partners were in relationships when she came and stole them, so you are clearly confused and got the wrong person.
Ha! Kind of ironic because apparently Jen Aniston put her foot down in regard to Brad staring with first choice Nicole Kidman on Mr and Mrs Smith because she thought he might stray, Angelina later took on the role and the rest is history.
