Hugh Jackman and wife Deborra-Lee Furness break out dance moves in New York

Hugh Jackman and wife Deborra-Lee Furness bust out their best dance moves as they get into the Christmas spirit – with one VERY hilarious twist


Hugh Jackman has been working hard rehearsing for his upcoming Broadway show The Music Man, which opens on February 10 at the Winter Garden Theatre in New York City.

And on Monday, his wife Deborra-Lee Furness decided to whip out a few dance moves of her own with Hugh in tow, as the couple festively strutted their stuff to Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas Is You in their apartment.

‘Before I leave for rehearsals, I do a warm up with Debs,’ Hugh, 53, captioned the footage – before the festive jingle unexpectedly transitioned into Soulja Boy’s Crank That just seconds in.

How funny! Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness whipped out some very cool dance moves in their lavish New York City apartment on Monday

Not missing a beat, the couple went from childlike Christmas hand gestures to an impressive street dance routine within seconds.

The pair were seen pointing at each other, popping their hips and moving their feet to the beat in the hilarious 12-second clip.

Deborra-Lee kept things casual in a black T-shirt and sneakers, while Hugh wore a similar comfortable ensemble.

The couple’s epic Christmas tree, with presents underneath, was visible in the background, as well as a stunning city skyline view of the Hudson River.

In November, Hugh gave fans a glimpse of his new Broadway show.

Posting to his Instagram, the Wolverine actor shared behind-the-scenes footage of the cast practising a dance routine.

‘We’re coming your way Broadway. And here’s a sneak at what we’re packing. @musicmanbway #wintergardentheatre #trouble,’ he captioned the video.

He may have made a name for himself in Hollywood as a movie star, but Hugh got his start working in theatre and has returned to his roots of late.

The Music Man will also include Younger star Sutton Foster, who has been sharing photos and videos with Hugh backstage as they learn lines, routines and songs.

In the classic play, Hugh will portray Professor Harold Hill, while Sutton will star opposite Jackman as Marian Paroo.
