I think the world of film is more forgiving than TV, after all probably half of the producers/directors/stars and writers in Hollywood are at it themselvses, along with copious ammounts of coke. What shocked me about Hugh Grant was that here's a man who could have shagged some of the most beautiful women in the world, and he chose Divine Brown???? What was he thinking?
Of course there's always Pee Wee Herman, who wasn't with a WG but wanking in a sex cinema and that ended his career. He probably should have been with a WG, then he would have been forgiven.
OK I will bite!
The thing about Hugh Grant at the time is whilst you are right he could have shagged some of the beautiful woman in the world sometimes some no strings bit of rough is a nice escape!
At the time he was dating Liz Hurley one of the most attractive film actresses around at the time, he could go to any party and no doubt have all sorts of highly attractive young woman throw themselves at him and I am sure they were but lets consider things a bit.
1) Big celebrity relationships tend to be out of convenience for both parties, when he started dating Hurley in 94 he was the bigger star. It was convenient to her career development wise and no doubt having her on his arm on celebrity carpets did him no harm
2) Catch is I bet she wasn't putting out as much as we fantasy about, she probably preferred the pool boy and Hugh was probably wasn't getting the marathon orgies with her that you might think
3) His life was under a paparazzi magnifying glass, all those highly attractive woman throwing themselves at him come at a price
4) So an on the spur of the moment blowjob from a bit of rough back street hooker is probably a bit of a release and thrill for a man in that situation
Unfortunately he got collared and the rest is history!
