In real-life, Hugh Grant is a “big pain in the a**”, according to Jon Stewart.

The Daily Show host Jon Stewart has gone so far as to say that Hugh Grant will never again be allowed on his show.

Hugh Grant was blasted by Jon Stewart for being rude to his staff and the show host says he will never be invited back.

Speaking at a fundraiser for the Montclair Film Festival in New Jersey recently, Jon Stewart said: “He’s giving everyone s*** the whole time, and he’s a big pain in the a**. And we’ve had dictators on the show.”

Jon Stewart also revealed Hugh Grant complained about the clip of his flop movie Did You Hear About The Morgans?, which was played on the show, asking: “What is that clip? It’s a terrible clip” to which the host replied: “Well, then make a better f***ing movie.”

Hugh Grant welcomed his first child Tabitha last September after a “fleeting affair” with Chinese actress Tinglan Hong but insisted while he likes her “very much”, that she hasn’t changed his life.

He said: “(People) said never let anyone know, but the baby period is not that exciting. But I am excited, actually.

“I thought, well, I’ll bluff through – but very little bluffing has been required. I like my daughter very much. Fantastic. Has she changed my life? I’m not sure. Not yet. Not massively, no. But I’m absolutely thrilled to have had her, I really am.

“And I feel a better person. There probably is some truth that one of our main functions on the planet is to reproduce, because it feels like more of an achievement than it should do.”
