I just dedicated one day to reporters

After the shooting of "The Greatest Showman" was over, and this happened just before Christmas, Jackman went to rest on his homeland in Australia. There, as expected, he faced the fact that he was followed by the paparazzi. Even then, the actor realized that it was normal for him to have a rest in the family circle, and he went to the trick. Here are some words Hugh recalls his vacation in Australia:

"I know that it's almost impossible to agree with the paparazzi. In principle, this is not surprising, because shooting stars in everyday life is their job. Then I came up with a rather strange idea - to offer to shoot myself, in exchange for the fact that they will not take me out for a week while I'm with my family. I gathered all the reporters near my house and asked if they would agree to my proposal. To my great surprise, I quickly received a positive response, and we scheduled a meeting at the beach at 8am. I arrived without delay and saw that they were all gathered and waiting for me. After that, the most usual shoots began, as a result of which I splashed in the ocean, ran along the beach, lay on the sand, talked with friends and relatives and, of course, made different faces. I just devoted one day to reporters. The most interesting thing is that they kept their promise and the next day, when I was leaving the gym, I did not meet anyone near my car. I can say that this is the most amazing rest in my life, because there were no annoying reporters in it, and I could do what I want. "

After Jackman told this amazing story, the host of the TV program said this about this:

"Hugh, I've always been surprised at your ingenuity. Even in such a seemingly desperate situation, you were able to find the right solution. It seems to me that all celebrities need to take this idea into service, after all, it turns out that we can agree with the paparazzi. "
