When Ashley Graham approached the Glass Onion actor, he seemed downright disinterested. Graham proceeded to ask a series of standard questions, however, she was reverted with short replies and eye-rolling sessions. The 35-year-old model asked, “Who are you most excited to see tonight?” Putting on a sly and sarcastic tone, Grant asked Graham to be more specific with her questions, “To see?”. The model tried being polite and asked specifically, “To see win”. However, despite rephrasing her question, Grant replied with a lack of interest, “no one in particular”. 

The painful and hard-to-watch interview continued for some time until both gave up. Graham tried her best to come up with interesting questions and keep the conversation going. However, Hugh Grant’s short and dismissive one-word replies ended the conversation way too soon. As the brief transcript went viral, people started facing secondhand awkwardness by watching it. Netizens simply took to Twitter to slam the actor for being obnoxious.
