Hugh Jackman's Wife Deborra-Lee Furness on 'Boring' Rumors About His Sexuality
Hugh Jackman: Boring. During a recent appearance on the podcast, the Australian actress tried to apply some logic to the rumors that her other half is gay, telling host Gus Worland, «If he was gay, he could be gay.
He didn't have to hide in the closet anymore. And he'd be dating Brad Pitt or whatever.»«It's so silly,» she added, «and then people perpetuate silly things.
It's boring.»Furness criticized the magazines that prolong rumors about celebrities. «I’m like, 'How could people just make this up?' It just amazes me that these magazines continue to get away with it,» she said. «What they're selling is schadenfreude.
They are selling misery. People must be wanting to buy that other people are miserable…because that makes them feel better about themselves.»While she pointed out that people are affected by reading lies about themselves, Furness noted that she and Jackman «don't read a lot of that stuff» and are unaware.
