Beyond awkward. Hugh Grant is the subject of much criticism after his uncomfortable Oscars red carpet interview on Sunday, March 12.The Notting Hill actor, 63, didn’t seem pleased to talk to Ashley Graham during ABC’s Academy Awards pre-show before heading into the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.When asked his favorite part of the Oscars, Grant said, “It’s fascinating.

The whole of humanity is here. It’s Vanity Fair.”Graham, 35, didn’t interpret that as a reference to the phrase, which is defined by Merriam-Webster as “a scene or place characterized by frivolity and ostentation.” Naturally, she instead thought of the Vanity Fair Oscars party, the most coveted invitation of awards season.“Yes, that’s where we let loose and have a little bit of fun!” the model commented.After that, Grant stopped offering more than a few words at a time.

Who does he hope wins tonight? “No one in particular.” What is he wearing? “Just my suit.” Who made his suit? “I can’t remember my tailor.”Graham tried to steer the interview back to movies, recalling his role in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, which was nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay. “Well, I’m barely in it.

I’m in it for about 3 seconds,” he said of his brief role in the film.The model asked if he at least had fun, and Grant replied, “Almost.”The interaction left Twitter slamming Grant. “Is Hugh Grant just an arrogant dick all the time?
