Hugh Jackman has announced that despite wanting to be a dancer when he was a child, he gave up his dreams after his older brother accused him of being gay.
The 40-year-old X-Men Origins: Wolverine star said in an interview with Time Out: "In another world, another life, probably growing up in another country, I might have been more of a dancer. In fact I was going down that road when I was about 12.
"I was encouraged to do that, and I remember my brother saying, 'Ah, you poof,' so I gave it up. I dropped it like a hot rock. I didn't have the guts of Billy Elliot at the time!
“I think was about 11 actually, I wasn’t even 100 per cent sure what it [poof] meant but I knew this wasn’t cool. Then later when I was about 18, I remember thinking this is just ridiculous; I enjoyed dancing.”
Jackman recently told Parade magazine: “I'd be happy to go and deny being gay, because I'm not.
"But by denying it, I'm saying there is something shameful about it, and there isn't anything shameful.”
"I was encouraged to do that, and I remember my brother saying, 'Ah, you poof,' so I gave it up. I dropped it like a hot rock. I didn't have the guts of Billy Elliot at the time!
