I probably shouldn’t admit this but I may be the only person (female in particular) on the planet who cannot identify Hugh Jackman. I know he’s a popular actor but I don’t know who he is (know the name though), and don’t know that I’ve ever seen a movie he’s been in. And, you know, I’m okay with that. (Even now.)
So when they did a clip from his movie Paperback Hero (thanks to Blogging National for that info) at the awards ceremony Saturday night, I thought it was a "staged" thing. THEN, when the women on either side of me say, "Ohmigod, that’s Hugh Jackman!" I, having never seen Paperback Hero and not realizing it’s a clip from a movie, jump to the conclusion that RWA has hired Mr. Jackman for this little performance. Seriously, that is what I was thinking as I watched that. I’m thinking they opened the purse strings and shelled out for a spot with Hugh Jackman. I’m that stupid.
It wasn’t until they started showing clips from other movies (that I knew) that I realized what they were doing and that the clip with THE Hugh Jackman was probably from an actual movie. And now, all I can think is I want to see that movie.
I’m such a dork.

Lucy, I'm so glad you know Hugh now. :) Isn't he yummy? :) And darn it, Netflix doesn't have Paperback Hero as an option. Stupid Netflix. I don't care that it's an Australian movie before he was famous, I want Hugh!!
It was great to meet you!! So sorry we only seemed to meet in passing. I'm surprised you couldn't hear my stomach growling Wednesday. LOL
Now, about this story with Mel making SEP cry... :)
I saw him in that movie years ago before he was famous and remember thinking "Who IS this guy? He's HOT!" LOL. It's a cute movie if you're able to find it somewhere.
