Hugh Grant says he screwed up his A–out while eating this New York staple

Hugh Grant has some serious beef with hot dogs.

The actor revealed that eating too many Nathan’s Famous hot dogs didn’t sit well with him.

He spoke about the incident during a Wednesday appearance on The Late Late Show With James Corden alongside his Dungeons & Dragons co-star Chris Pine.

“I was shooting a movie with Sandra Bullock in Coney Island, New York, and by lunchtime everyone was like, ‘Oh, well, you must have a Nathan’s hot dog. They’re famous in Coney Island,'” Grant said.

He continued, declaring that it was the “most delicious” thing he’s ever eaten in his “entire life.”

So of course he ate four of them.

“But what nobody explained to me is that there is an ingredient that has been known to affect the digestive system in these hot dogs,” Grant claimed.

“So I was, to say the least, very late back to the makeup trailer.”

He said his makeup artist for the film was from Brooklyn, and she asked him if the hot dogs “blew his A-out.”

“I said, ‘Yeah, it blew my mind, yeah,'” Grant admitted.

The actor didn’t specifically credit the film, but he and Bullock did co-star in the 2002 romantic comedy Two Weeks Notice.

Unfortunately, this isn’t the only time Grant has had a bad incident involving a hot dog.

In January, he admitted to another news outlet that he was being stalked by someone dressed as a hot dog while attending San Diego Comic-Con last summer.

The Love Actually star revealed that he spoke to Pine on a panel at the event.

“There was only one person at that convention who really loved me, and he dressed up as a hot dog for the entire three days,” Grant recalled. “And he followed me wherever I went. I couldn’t shake him. Do you remember the hot dog? I was shocked. I still have nightmares about him.”

Grant recently made headlines after walking the red carpet at the Academy Awards, where he was interviewed by model Ashley Graham. Some fans berated him for being “rude” to the star as he gave her one-word answers.

Once Graham had asked him what he was wearing.


Grant said people encouraged him to try the famous Coney Island dish.

His answer?

“My suit.”

Drew Barrymore later defended him on an episode of her talk show, calling him a “good guy.”
