Nice to see Hugh Grant denouncing the press’s misconduct. Though it is ironic that he has to speak about it with Howard Stern; a host who has been denounced many times for his tabloid and scandal driven programming; even saying vile things about Johnny Depp & Michael Jackson.

Yes, the sinister media, such as Johnny Boy Willoughby.

"Fleet Street did their best to ignore the story.” — in The Hack This line isn’t fiction. It’s a direct indictment of the real-world media culture that allowed industrial-scale criminality, phone hacking, surveillance, harassment, to thrive inside Britain’s most powerful newspapers. ITV’s The Hack dramatises one of the darkest chapters in UK media history: the systemic abuse of victims by national newspapers, and the total failure of the press to report on its own wrongdoing. Victims were not just ignored — they were smeared, intimidated, and silenced. Those who dared to speak out were met with denial, cover-ups, and more abuse. What makes this moment all the more damning? Even now, with the exception of The Guardian, The I and a few others, much of the national press is refusing to acknowledge the show. There has been a near-total blackout in coverage: no front pages, few in-depth reviews, little meaningful commentary, on a drama that reveals the criminal methods and moral rot at the heart of powerful media empires. Why? Because The Hack tells the truth. About illegal phone hacking. About the lies told to Parliament. About the deletion of evidence. About the way press executives perverted justice — and got away with it. The media won't hold itself accountable. It's up to all of us to demand truth, transparency, and justice — for the victims, and for the future of our democracy. #TheHack #DavidTennant #PhoneHacking #PressAbuse #MediaCorruption #Leveson #JusticeForVictims #Hackgate #HackedOff #PressReform #FleetStreetSilence

Hugh Grant says he fired his talent agent, created a fake one, and became his own middleman for 4 years. Hugh Grant says he secretly became his own agent for four years and fooled Hollywood with a fake identity. Hugh Grant: “I do have an agent again now, but for four years, I didn’t have one. I told everyone, ‘If you want me, go to James Howeily in London.’ And he didn’t exist. It was me on a different email account.” Howard Stern: “Is that right? You made up a name? James Howeily.” Hugh Grant: “I used to fancy a girl called Anne Howeily. She wore big earrings, and she was attractive, so James Howeily handled everything.” “People would send emails saying, ‘Can you get this script to Hugh?’ And I’d write back, ‘Yeah, I’ll try and get him to read it this week.’” “I saved myself an absolute fortune. But the problem was, these people sending stuff wanted a personal relationship with James. They’d say, ‘We’re coming to London next week. Let’s have lunch.’” Howard Stern: “Did you ever call anyone as James Howeily?” Hugh Grant: “Yeah. I got rumbled in the end. I can’t remember exactly what happened, but James had to get on the phone one time.” Howard Stern: “What was James’s voice like?” Hugh Grant: “Well, I was watching the golf, and there was a Scottish commentator, so I thought, ‘Right, he’s Scottish and I did a pretty bad Scottish accent” Howard Stern: “Did you feel guilty doing that?” Hugh Grant: “I did a bit, yeah. And then I started to slip up because if I had a drink or two, I’d write emails as James and sign off ‘Hugh’ by mistake.”

Hugh Grant says he turned down replacing Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men because producers couldn't provide a script before signing. Howard Stern : “Jon Cryer said that after Charlie Sheen’s meltdown, you were the first choice to take over Two and a Half Men. Were you considering it?” Hugh Grant : “They talked to me about it, but they didn’t have a script or even a new character. They just kept saying, ‘Trust us. We’ll create one.’” “It was all because of the tight schedule American television works on. They had to start production, and I told them, ‘It’s very difficult for me to consider this without a script.’” “They kept saying, ‘Trust us,’ but I was too scared to sign up without knowing what I’d actually be playing.” Howard Stern : “Did you watch the show after Ashton Kutcher joined out of curiosity?” Hugh Grant : “I did.” “It was still a very good show, but what they created for Ashton Kutcher was clearly completely different from what they would’ve created for me. So it’s hard to judge whether I made the right decision.” Howard Stern : “The money must have been tremendous.” Hugh Grant : “Yeah, it was stratospheric.” “I had no idea how much television paid in America.” “I worked with Simon Helberg on Florence Foster Jenkins, and at first I was probably a little patronizing because he hadn’t done many films.” “Then I gradually realized not only was he a much bigger star than me, he was maybe the richest man I’d ever met.”
