Hugh Jackman has a lot of personalities, you just love seeing him.

[@winterramos4527]

What I love about George is that he really does his homework. Journalism isn't as easy as some people think. George has it nailed and also he doesn't interrupt the guest in the middle of there conversation. We respect you George and keep doing your thing. NYC Baby!!

[@winterramos4527]

@Quentin Hayden 6yrs later and we got an answer

[@1LeiaPrincess]

WHAT a nice interview!!! The interviewer (George?sorry i'm not familiar) was so cool, so many interesting questions , no "trying to sound smarter and "steal the thunder" of the person i'm actually interviewing", no stupid jokes every 10 seconds,no cliche questions, no interrupting the guest ...just.... BRAVO!

[@mabermabert1101]

This is the first time Ive ever watched this show and what a fantastic host. He asks excellent questions and lets the guest really talk.

[@AwesomestAmberMVS]

I wish this show was more well known. The interviewer is so good, its very refreshing.

[@louisethompson8350]

If you think this was a good interview check out his interview with Prince Charles he made Charles likeable.

[@orlandobrown9289]

He was s hater to other celebs. Chronic agitator triggering people indirectly. Watch his interview with vanilla ice. Watch the subliminals really watch. Then youll know. By the way he is grown now in his 40s hes amazed me too.

[@thestranger4812]

Really got to hand it to George. Most American talk-show hosts would just have asked trivial bullshit questions and then interrupted the guests every few seconds. George gets great stories out of them, and let them talk. Fantastic host!

[@agirlnamedsven9574]

he's NOT American!

[@sportsmed77]

Well George is Canadian.

[@thestranger4812]

sportsmed77 I never said he was American, I just compared him to those.

[@foljs5858]

> Well George is Canadian. And a whole lot of Greek.

[@DarkholmeRR]

that was me he shouted out at 07:05 ... got to meet him before and after. I was star struck and he was such a gentleman

[@dewgydewg]

This guy has to be one of the best interviewers around at the moment. He knows exactly what he is talking about, asks questions that you wont find the answers to in every other interview, and obviously makes his guests feel very comfortable!

[@Suebee29]

He's gorgeous ♥

[@janiehallls]

lovely lovely lovely...just lovely...and even more....

[@spazzy69]

He's a wonderful man - makes me proud to be Australian.

[@MeMyBestFrnd]

[@dragoonism]

This guy is a perfect example of active listening.

[@sportlife19]

[@wilomica]

[@pullhoodie]

He and his wife are beautiful people... I just love them so much :D Hugh is one of the few celebrities that's worthy of people looking up to him.

[@boundaryzero]

[@DrowsyPotato]

The interviewer is fking amazing!

[@MrTechselect]

[@barbaradavis1402]

Great interview

[@jessicarios8149]

I love Hugh jackman:D

[@soulcornflake1]

This guy is one of the top 3 interviewers on North American TV (US and Canada). The other two are Charlie Rose and Craig Ferguson.

[@jimwyatt7331]

cool interview

[@ShaunaLouuX]

Haha aww he is soo funny an lovely!! i cant help but smile as im watching him xD

[@baleydee]

i love this

[@LIMEGREEN2772]

George is well liked, loved, and respected, especially in Canada, because he IS Canadian. Has anyone heard of MuchMusic? (Before they played stupid reality shows.) Rick? Rachael?

[@ΒασίληςΑγγελόπουλος-ξ3δ]

He is greek

[@bpandpwlvr]

No it's not just you, George is awesome!

[@PianoDisneygal10]

"Hi, I'm Wolverine". lol!

[@isatisblablah4067]

À toi pour toujours. ❤

[@tina2deadly]

Yeah, he was in the Paperback hero and the prison tv show where he met his wife. All aussies knew him before xmen but xmen made him recognized by the worlds...

[@LondoninColouredRain]

I close my eyes and just hear Bunnymund :'D

[@rositapam5010]

Ughh... Every girl in this world deserves a Hugh Jackman!!

[@juliawillc]

Rosita pam YES, PLEASE!

[@jamisenbrooklyn4131]

Rosita pam pleaseeeeeeee

[@pspboy7]

Yes!

[@likeyouornot]

he's soooo yummmy!!!!!!!

[@AnonimusWho]

I didn't know Wolverine could play Hugh Jackman that good

[@rockytheafg]

Is it me or the interviewer is just fking amazing

[@courtneywagg9565]

Good Interview Hugh Jackman is amazing actor also vary Interesting men . I like meet him someday he lot fun take too. ❤️🇨🇦😀

[@HelloFade2]

So I have to ask,did anyone outside of Australia know who Hugh Jackman was before the first X-Men movie came out ?

[@rockytheafg]

No doubt about that

[@RiceCookah]

He's Canadian so is the show

[@Tawnosus]

include the bio please cbc :)

[@LoveOrBeHated]

0 dislikes. that is Hugh for ya

[@StrawberryCream78]

Canadian show?

[@TheWolverineiscool]

hugh rules!

[@soulcornflake1]

I've never seen Jian Ghomeshi. I have seen George S. though.

[@adad-ec6ht]

All these stupid girls here are saying how handsome, lovely, weird,,, funny Jackman is. Nobody realizes that he is actually very intelligent.

[@eventhorizon]

He's freakin' awesome... like when he talks about his past- forgiving him mom for stuff, getting into meditation... he's really interesting in a way that it's sad people miss if they're caught up in the superficial.

[@FairyAsmr]

I do ❤

[@ree3762]

Now you know how women have felt since the beginning of time

[@adad-ec6ht]

@@ree3762 Women felt fine - they never wanted to take lead or protect the group since the beginning of time.

[@Moiez101]

oh lord. i'm straight but i'm reconsidering just for him...

[@smashinova]

I think its cos the American talk shows are host focused, whereas everywhere else its the guest focused

[@rosh181992]

he should teach how to interview celebrities!

[@MatsuriAndGaara281]

THIS GUY. IS SMART.

[@ximenaaguirremena6329]

amo a wolverine = o

[@666Crenado]

Good interviewer, seems interested, not just cracking his own jokes, and Hugh kicks ass, and i don't know what Hugh was on about with his 'sux swearing' too much time on American tv i guess.

[@JDMulraney]

@PQVidya man your not allowed to talk about Fight Club....

[@waynegretzky3895]

wolverine an aussiye playing a canadian i love cit ciao.

[@TheMMOKiller]

He does that because he has a graphic where he has to do his job and get through everything in a particular time. that's why they don't let you talk so much o.O

[@footyfan101ful]

I wonder who Hugh would of played on Neighbours. I bet it would of been Dr Karl.

[@roter13]

the fact that hugh does not have any biological children is a robbery

[@onlyyehavah]

It really is, its sad what him and his wife went through but dammit to hell. It breaks my heart that one day he will leave this place and have no biological children to carry on his seed.

[@SamAM16]

But the GOOD thing is that he and Deb have instead adopted children, even though it's only two, they've adopted children and given them lives just as loving.

[@juliawillc]

roter13 he needs to make donations to sperm banks.

[@only1hughj]

he has the luckiest wife in the world...

[@LoveOrBeHated]

@only1hughj I know right, Hugh

[@rachelliu82]

His mon abandoned the family when he was eight years old, his dad grow up the five kids by himself. When he told his dad he would marry that woman, his dad doubt it’s his mistake....

[@kyliem201]

rachelliu82 his mom had custody of 2 of the children, he didnt raise all of them on his own. + im pretty sure they all visited their mom plenty.

[@messihair92]

Which one? :P

[@lisamuller68]

Hugh's top bottom is about to explode every moment now... xD

[@SomeTotalRandom]

how is this man in his 40s?

[@only1hughj]

@LoveOrBeHated :D :D :D great minds think alike

[@Aspie37]

Australian actors should be in Australia!

[@juliawillc]

Garry Burge Love Aussies.

[@judiannelee2323]

they didnt teach him stolen generations? NOW at school they are throwing book of stolen generations at us.. great interview

[@LoveOrBeHated]

he's so legit.

[@TheAllBlue139]

hahahhahahhahahaahha claws thing in the plain :D

[@kimit91]

[@amy4eve2]

Yes...actually believe it or not,i dont tell a lie either my friend,well i suppose you wouldnt really call it "knowing him" But before his audition for x-men back stage in the loby i was there auditioning to,and you know i told him good luck Mr.jackman,and he looked back and said thankyou,and so..ya i suppose i could say i new him...but i mean now..pfft who doesnt know him!

[@dasalekhya]

Jackman's EARS are weird

[@rayprime8530]

he's the wolverine.

[@lara6938]

He played rugby when he was younger.

[@juliawillc]

Hugh Jackman is perfection.

[@isatisblablah4067]

Wide boy 6.

[@sportlife19]

Damn he dnt look like hes 42 he looks like 32 psh

[@jrat92]

Looks like Ted Bundy, I swear it!

[@Kasino80]

[@rachelliu82]

@only1hughj I am jealousy of his wife

[@jadetiger88888]

yes he should have a lot of biological kids!

[@kyliem201]

jadetiger88888 his wife had a lot of problems with getting pregnant, she had a few miscarriages. very sad.

[@Mookie70]
