Hugh Grant’s 50th birthday fear
Hugh Grant is ‘dreading’ turning 50.
The British actor – who hits the half a century mark on September 9 – is so unhappy about reaching the milestone age he has even joked about ending his life at a euthanasia clinic.
He said: ‘I’m dreading it. There is this place in Switzerland called Dignitas. I’m going to go to Dignitas on my 50th birthday – 50 is enough!’
The ‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’ star – who has never married – also admitted he lost his sense of humour when started exercising more in a bid to escape crippling panic attacks which often struck him while he worked.
He explained to Britain’s OK! magazine: ‘I get these panic attacks. So I have always tried to do everything I possibly can – herbal remedies, chemical remedies. Running was the only thing that really helped.
‘It calmed me down, so I did not have the panic attacks. But at the same time, I found it lowered my sense of humour. I lost my edge a bit. So in the end, I stopped running.
‘It’s not audiences, I love an audience. Put me on stage in front of a thousand people and I’m very comfortable. It’s cameras. I do not like them.’
