Hugh Jackman Leads Massive One-Man Show Crowd in ‘Happy Birthday’ for Ian McKellen

Hugh Jackman may have had to skip Ian McKellen’s birthday party to perform his one-man show, “The Man, The Music, The Show,” but that didn’t mean he couldn’t celebrate his “X-Men” co-star’s 80th.Jackman took a moment at the Manchester Arena Saturday to lead the sold-out audience — some 50,000 strong — in a rendition of “Happy Birthday.”“I’m sorry I can’t make your party, Ian,” Jackman said in an Instagram video of the moment.

“But I think I might annoy about 50,000 people,” he said, as the audience broke into cheers and the camera panned around the arena.

The crowd then proceeded to sing “Happy Birthday,” with Jackman vocals distinguishable through the mic.He ended the video by blowing a kiss into the camera and saying, “Love you, man.
