Why Hugh Jackman would never run for president

Hugh Jackman. Would he ever run for office as half the world does now? He answers: “A job where half the planet hates you from Day 1? No! I have too thin a skin.”

Meanwhile, he’s playing a married senator who tried for the Oval Office and withdrew when people suspected he may have fallen flat on his ladyfriend. 1988. Gary Hart. On a boat called Monkey Business, it’s possible the candidate’s libido went overboard. If he played potsy, footsy and other available parts with young nubile Donna Rice, some thought he wouldn’t have been fit for the office.

Jackman has Hart’s role in the new film “The Front Runner,” and it’s his first time meeting someone whom he portrayed. They became friends, although Hugh’s wife thought it could make the role more difficult.

Bret Easton Ellis Couldn’t Care Less About Trump

Bret Easton Ellis wants you to know that he cares squat about politics.

“I just cannot get that worked up over the absurdity of the president,” he sighs, “the absurdity of politics in general.”

He is long done with Trump, the hero of his blood-spattered “American Psycho” protagonist, Patrick Bateman. The president, Ellis says, “is just a comic figure who tripped into something.”

The novelist didn’t just skip the 2016 election. “I’ve never voted for president,” says Ellis, 55, sitting in his publisher’s Midtown Manhattan offices, promoting his new memoirish amalgam of essays, “White,” his first book in almost a decade. Senator? “No.” He can’t be bothered.

CHRISTIAN BALE’S STORY ABOUT MEETING DONALD TRUMP IS LAUGH-OUT-LOUD FUNNY

Christian Bale’s introduction to Donald Trump sounds like it was highly entertaining.

The superstar actor met the future president while filming “Batman” several years ago, and it sounds like it was anything but a normal meeting.

During an interview at the premiere of “Vice,” Bale told Variety the following about his 2011 interaction with Trump:

I met him, one time. We were filming on ‘Batman’ in Trump Tower and he said, ‘Come on up to the office.’ I think he thought I was Bruce Wayne because I was dressed as Bruce Wayne. So he talked to me like I was Bruce Wayne and I just went along with it, really. It was quite entertaining. I had no idea at the time that he would think about running for president.
