This comment is spectacular.

​@@KM-tk2ih stupendous!

Her wit is always that sharp.

Slit his throat with a smile 🤣🤣🤣

Hahahaha

I don’t get it. Can you explain?

@@MaxOakland she’s saying, I believe, that she was given notes over the course of her career and, as a result, became a fine actor. So that he really shouldn’t have gotten bent out of shape just because someone was trying to help him out…..even if he didn’t want or need the advice (notes).

She is a viciously hilarious I just love her

@@justingurley836 She’s saying she got notes from Hugh Grant when they worked together.

@@justingurley836I think for most men it’s a pride thing to not take advice from women🤷🏼‍♂️

I shouldn't be surprised, but it was kinda disappointing to hear it was a joke, but then again, it is funnier this way and they are shorts, so something is always missing or edited.

Of course we believe Meryl. No one is more believable.

I think she said she was kidding for plausible deniability. She wasn’t about to let him get away with playing off having made Drew cry, but she’s classy enough to give him a gracious out. Meryl, man… there’s just no one more adroit.

@@Boadicea6 hahaha... But seriously, who would dare give HER notes on her acting 😂😂😂

​@@lekoman yes his similar opinions start to make it more about how he thinks and less about all those women he worked with. Called him out on the woman is crazy or hateful trope

Exactly. The fact that she was younger than he was meant (to him) she couldn't possibly know anything, right? Even though she's been acting since she was 6?

I don't think he underestimated Meryl Streep, I think maybe he just didn't see his note giving as the same as ones he received.

@@susieq1170 he didn’t give her notes, Meryl was joking. This isn’t the full clip

She never means to be savage but always is! Frigging love her.

They're joking. Watch the full clip.

what arrogance??? He doesn't looks arrogant anywhere. maybe you should watch the mirror

What arrogance? She wasn't even being serious, she said she was joking. Maybe you should watch the full videos for the proper context so you don't look pathetic

She literally said she was kidding in the next frame... watch the whole thing before going after a brilliant actor

What type of British talk is this I’m so confused

​@@PeterDoherty2001 if you Google the saying this is the only reference that comes up. Nobody ever said it before. It's just daft and makes him look slightly daft which is why it works so well.

I love Emma She's so clever And if she's mad - it totally resonates with ME

She's hilarious during interviews!

@@regant.cameron8237 Emma is bonkers, but in the best way possible.

Same here. As years go by my respect and admiration only grow stronger. I didn't give her time of day 20 years ago. She was one amonsgt others. I get to see how exceptional she is ❤

Can u explain it to me? I don’t get it

True. You'd have to get past her outer armor first; I would imagine that she's the proverbial "one tough cookie".

@@roberthamill1277I don’t think she’s tough at all, she wears her heart on her sleeve. She’s so genuine and open that’s why he made her cry.

Drew Barrymore cries half the time. The other half, she's laughing. She wears her heart on her sleeve.

@@007Julie I think she's tough and she shows her emotions.

Why was she giving out notes though….?🤔 Sounds like she was pretty driven for the project to be a success….and maybe overstepped her bounds

But notes from the director and notes from a co-star with the acting chops of Drew Barrymore are two different things, though...

@@Snowshowslow "Even a dead clock is right twice a day." So even an actor one considers below them may have some genuinely good advice every now and then.

@@janemary8339 True and it would be great if he would be willing to listen, but I don't think he's failed as a human being if it annoys him.

Notes are fine. From the director.

​@@Snowshowslow if she's trying to build an intimate connection with him on screen, suggestions/notes should be welcomed if it makes the scene work better. My question is, why is HE so far above recieving notes from a fellow actor?? That's incredibly arrogant- something he's been accused of many times.

There does serm to be one common denominator. He's prolly kidding. I've never seen him be serious once.

It's called a joke

yes, he's worked with 3 actresses his entire career...

Exactly my thought

@@simonl.6338 can you explain the joke? 🤔

That’s not a British accent lol

​@@PsychesFlora Is just a tag question, indeed! But, she spoke in a way like they do, didn't she? 😅😅😅

@@daubipiccoli No… only if you have no ear for accents. I don’t know why so many Americans think that a British accent is just an American accent but pronounced succinctly. To us it just sounds awful. And miles from accurate. If someone tried to pass that off as British it would be like…… we wouldn’t even realize that’s what you were doing.

@@PsychesFloraunless it is "yank taking the mic," innit.

Her boyfriend, at the time, died when she was just starting as an actress.

Yeah was best friends with weinstein I'd imagine there was plenty she saw her bestie do and swept it straight under the carpet

Sexual harassment, mysogynistic pigs , disgusting advances .. basically all the things males do

ditto

To drop bank ?

And with an arrogant little British accent 🤓

Pew! 🎯

👍🏼

He always comes off completely conceited so slap in the face was wonderfully perfect to see lol 👋

That’s because he IS extremely conceited

It's British humour , the best is when you make yourself the target

It’s just British humour. Plus, the clip is cut short. He did not give meryl notes.

It's cause he is

Who also thanked Harvey Weinstein in her Oscars speech GOD. Maybe in Hollywood I guess lol. One can only hope she was being sarcastic. Though don't let her sweet demeanor deceive you. She's considered one of the greatest living actresses after all. I don't think so.

He's a well known misogynist. No wonder all the women can't stand him lol

They do. She was teasing him. They're friends in real life. He's also friends with Drew and she's had him on her show multiple times, including one where they talked about making out for 10 minutes in the middle of a crowded Soho restaurant.

she clarified it was a joke; He didnt actually give her acting notes. See the full video of the show.

Or not a good relationship that’s why she slammed him 👋 slapped him haha

Yuppp it’s a big red flag. Same as someone saying all their exes are crazy. There’s no way theres something wrong with everyone else and it’s never your fault. If you’re the common denominator, it must be _you_ that’s the problem!

Not really. Have you met women? They are awful to work with and even worse to be around. Only advantage is sex.

Except that Grant didn't say any such thing. He was presented with a comic setup by someone else, so women who didn't fit that setup would have excluded from it.

You're maybe assuming crazy is an insult or a bad thing. It's a bit of a Britishism but we do often say things like "They're crazy and I love them for it." Also us Brits are very self-deprecating and will think someone hates us for no better reason than because we took the last biscuit from the tin. (We would never actually take the last biscuit. The horror!)

@@pintpullinggeek ooooh, educational, thank you !

Facts.

Yup, but asking lesser actors than you as opposed to better actors would be really dumb. I would never give advice to a better actor than me. The level of arrogance this takes is insane.

Hey you are better than me, you knew his name! LOL

Lololol

Meryl decided that quickly for him 😂

Hugh Grant is more famous than Meryl Streep sorry to tell you guys

@@SirQuantization lol in what universe?

What she was actually saying was that she's received notes her entire career and learned from them. Which is why she's considered one of the best of all time. That's why Graham reacted like that and Hugh seemed shocked. She basically swatted down his ego so fast that whole room had whiplash. Absolutely EPIC read.

That was 10+ years before they worked together, tho, and all the more reason for him to try harder at “playing well with others”.

She knew how it was to be outcast for bad behavior, so she empathized with him.

​​@@privatelyprivate3285 Drew has clarified that story on her show. She said that in the beginning she and Hugh had a tense relationship because they were polar opposites personality wise. Its a very known fact that Hugh is a curmudgeon and she's sunshine personified so they basically clashed at the start. but she says that after that and they warmed up to each other, the tension was gone. She's had him on her show plenty of times and they even talked about that time they made out at a Soho restaurant in front of everyone.

Huh??

@@PeterDoherty2001 Have you never heard the expression before? "Well ain't that the pot calling the kettle black!" Google it. It's an old, but quite well-known phrase.

Count me in

for a number of years now

It’s so addicting because he brings out the best of his guests! And I love that it’s not censored. It’s refreshing to see people just be themselves instead of worrying about what they might say.

@@kimmieh8419 yes. The only thing I dislike is I feel he doesn’t treat his co workers/staff well from the few times I’ve seen him interact with them.

​@@kimmieh8419 they aren't being themselves at all. They are on camera and they know it, as we all act different when we are not alone with our thoughts. Cmon

Whats to destroy? They're friends in real life. Its what the Brits call "friendly ribbing"

Sexism probably.

I've done many things, too, both on and offstage. Actors shouldn't give notes to other actors because the director is the "leader" of the show and has the aesthetic of all aspects of the show. An actor only sees from their perspective and the note may not fit with the director's vision.

Drew has clarified that story on her show. She said that in the beginning she and Hugh had a tense relationship because they were polar opposites personality wise.

And he knows it and makes fun of himself. He calls Emma crazy cuz they are really good friends

he's a brilliant actor and unless you know him personally, one shouldn't believe everything one reads or hears when it comes to the world of entertainment and acting.

​@@carriepriegel6477 One? Who are you- a Windsor? 😆

​@@carriepriegel6477 he's a fumbling idiot in every movie I've seen him in. No range.

And btw, Grant is a brilliant actor who was typed casted in rom coms. Just watch him in the movie Maurice.

They should, in general, but colleagues should be free to discuss the project at hand, too.

And vice-versa
