This Morning hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield were left cringing when they found out Hugh Grant had compared his face to a “scrotum” at The Oscars.
Holly and Phil were discussing the 95th Academy Awards on Monday morning (March 13) with co-stars Isla Bates and Gyles Brandreth.
But things took a rather rude turn when Isla revealed what Love Actually star Hugh had said about his face during her review of the star-studded award ceremony.

She explained how the champagne-coloured carpet reflected the “muted” tones of this year’s ceremony compared to the wild Will Smith slap drama of last year.
She added: “There wasn’t much drama, this year, apart from I think the worst thing was Hugh Grant describing his own face as looking like a scrotum.”
Both Holly and Phil looked shocked at Hugh’s crude quip as they sat bolt upright in their seats and gasped: “Oh!”
Holly looked visibly uncomfortable as she said: “I missed that…”
And poor Giles looked absolutely mortified as he leapt away from Isla as soon as he heard about Hugh’s private part remarks.
Hugh made the comment when on stage with Andie MacDowell to present the Oscar for Production Design, which was won by German war film All Quiet on the Western Front.
The pairing made sense as Hugh and Andie had appeared together in their hit 1994 romantic comedy Four Weddings and a Funeral.

But Hugh was quick to make fun of his own appearance after praising former co-star Andie for how beautiful she looked.
He told viewers his appearance reminded everybody of the “vital importance” of using moisturiser and claimed that, unlike Andie, he’d never used it in his life.
He said Andie was “still stunning” before pointing to his face and declaring: “Basically a scrotum.”
