Hugh Grant says he's a fan of BLACKPINK after seeing the K-pop group perform live.

It seems the Bridget Jones's Diary star, 62, can now be counted among the popular K-pop group's millions of fans. On Monday, the British actor revealed in a tweet that he was part of the crowd packing London's BST Hyde Park festival to see the four-member South Korean girl band perform live on Sunday.

"Very grateful to three eleven year olds for taking me to see @BLACKPINK yesterday," Grant wrote, seemingly referring to his daughter Tabitha, 11, and her friends.

"Am rabid Blink now," he continued, using the affectionate nickname the group has for its massive fan base. He then joked, "Slept with my heart hammer," a nod to the pink hammer-shaped light sticks known as BI-Ping-Bong that have become a signature of BLACKPINK's concerts.

Director Paul King also said Grant's Oompa Loompa character was "no taller than knee high" in the film at the event, according to Entertainment Weekly.
