The 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' star is so unhappy about reaching the milestone age he has even joked about ending his life at a euthanasia clinic.
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 humor 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 didn't have the panic attacks. But at the same time, I found it lowered my sense of humor. 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 don't like them."
