London
(ANI):
Hugh
Grant
has
revealed
that
he
was
drunk
when
he
bought
the
Andy
Warhol
painting
of
Dame
Elizabeth
Taylor
which
he
later
sold
off
on
11-million-pound
profit.
Grant
decided
to
meet
his
brother
in
New
York
on
a
Concorde
flight
with
his
dad
after
drinking
at
a
meal.
The
trip
saw
Grant
taking
home
the
Warhol
piece
for
2million
pounds,
which
went
out
for
13million
pounds
at
a
2007
auction.
"I'd
been
having
a
drunken
dinner
with
my
father
the
night
before
and
I
said,
'We
ought
to
go
see
my
brother
Jamie.
You
know,
the
Concorde's
amazing'," the
Daily
Star
quoted
Grant
as
saying.
"We
had
lunch,
drank
a
lot
of
beer.
And
I
was
thinking
about
some
stuff
in
the
Sotheby's
auction
and
I
saw
the
Liz
Taylor,"
he
added.
