| Ripped and shirtless Hugh Jackman as Wolverine in “X-Men: Days of Future Past” |
Deborra-Lee Furness, the 57-year-old actress married to Hugh Jackman, told 60 Minutes this weekend that speculating Jackman’s sexuality is “offensive,” “stupid,” and “annoying.”
So shut up already, guys.
She called the persistent gay rumors “frustrating” before her husband chipped in, telling cameras that “If I was [gay], I would be.”
“It’s just offensive,” she continued. “If he was gay, fine, he would say he’s gay. It has gotten so out of whack … it’s stupid, yeah, it’s annoying, because it’s not true.”
I think the gays just keep holding out hope because he’s talented, well-liked and um, LOOK at him. I don’t think the “rumors” are malicious.
In February the actor told The Hollywood Reporter the speculation “bugs” his wife and he revealed she has a hard time ignoring whispers about his alleged homosexuality. “She goes: ‘It’s big. It’s everywhere!'”
But clearly the wife is done with it.

Wolverine faces his ultimate nemesis – and tests of his physical, emotional, and mortal limits – in a life-changing voyage to modern-day Japan.
I love super-hero movies! Squee!!!
ANNND – Hugh Jackman isn’t so hard to look at for a couple of hours, either…
Opens July 25, 2013.
The official trailer exclusive for The Wolverine, starring Hugh Jackman!
In theaters July 26th, 2013.
So, I’m currently in a phase of looking to drop some “winter weight” myself, and what do I come across this morning?
Hugh Jackman, looking completely, totally ripped, on the set of the upcoming film “Wolverine.”
The film’s director James Mangold tweeted this shot of Hugh Jackman facing off against Hiroyuki Sanada on the set.
Now, if Hugh Jackman can get to THIS – surely I can drop 12 pounds, yes?
(Say yes, kids. Looking for some hope here…)

International trailer for THE WOLVERINE starring the fab Hugh Jackman.
Opens July 2013.
Now, you know, THIS is how to open an awards show.
Over the top silliness and fab talent singing a great song from a Broadway musical.
I love Hugh kissing the puppet from AVENUE Q at the 3:09 mark. And coming downstage with the Rockettes is a great visual.
From the YouTube description:
Hugh Jackman performs “One Night Only”, the opening number from The 58th Annual Tony Awards with the “Dynamites” from Hairspray, the “Radio” from Caroline, or Change, and the “Urchins” from Little Shop of Horrors, along with members of the casts of Avenue Q, The Boy from Oz, Fiddler on the Roof, Wonderful Town, and Wicked, and the Radio City Music Hall Rockettes.
Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean sings the ballad about discovering paternal love for Fantine’s abandoned child Cosette, seamlessly fitting into the rest of the score as if it had always been there since the musical opened on Broadway in 1987.
Yeah – that’s pretty ripped if you ask me…
