Hugh Jackman is definitely the envy of most men lately with his last few movies but even more so, his co-stars. In his latest film, Kate & Leopold, Hugh gets a steamy sex scene with doll-face Meg Ryan. How steamy?

"They made me drop down and do a bunch of push-ups so I would glisten. I said, 'This is why I became an actor.' Either that or millions of dollars."

Whatever it takes, Hugh gets the job done. He made Ashley Judd swoon for him too in Someone Like You. Any man would drop and give a the director 50 if it meant sharing that sweat with one of those leading ladies.
