Hugh Jackman wants you to know he's not gay and he wishes you would stop asking.

In a recent interview with Australia's "60 Minutes," Jackman and his wife of 17 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, expressed frustration over the constant rumors about the actor's sexuality.

Jackman, who in the past has starred as the flamboyant lead of the Broadway show "The Boy from Oz," finds the accusations, as flattering as they are, frustrating. He also just feels bad for his wife.

"It's, to me, not the most interesting thing about a person, anyway," he said. "I do get frustrated for Deb, cause I see Deb go, 'Ah, this is just crazy!'"

Furness just finds the questioning "offensive."

"If he was gay, fine, he would say he's gay," she said. "It's annoying because it's not true."

This isn't the first time Jackman has spoken out about how the rumors affect his wife.

Hugh Jackman has come a long way since he played Curly McLain in a TV version of Oklahoma in 1999. Now we know the Aussie star mainly for his work in movies like X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Australia, and Van Helsing, but early in his career, he earned a communications degree with a journalism major from the University of Technology Sydney. Fortunately for us, he went on to pursue drama at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts, then met his future wife Deborra-Lee Furness while starring in the ABC prison drama Correlli.

How do I know all this? Because Biography did a show on him and told us all there is to know about Hugh Jackman. Ok, maybe not All there is to know, but enough to get a behind-the-scenes look at the guy who would go on to become famous for his spiky hands and song-and-dance numbers while hosting awards shows.

Hugh Jackman was so smitten with actress wife Deborra-Lee Furness, he wanted to propose to her after just three months of dating.

The pair wed in 1996 and has two adopted children - and Jackman knew straight away that they were destined to be together.

He tells People magazine, "In my early 20s, I didn't have a regular girlfriend. I was single and really happy about it. And then when I was 26, I met Deb on (Australian TV show) Correlli. She was my leading lady. It was just undeniable.

"I started planning to propose to her at about three months. We are happy. Deb and my kids have been the best things that have ever happened to me, without a doubt."

And Jackman, who has been named People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive of 2008, admits keeping the chemistry alive with his wife of 12 years isn't hard - because she loves it when the actor comes home dressed in-character.

He adds, "It's easy with my wife. She loves the idea of me coming home in costume because it makes her feel like she's having an affair in a good way.

"When we met, I was cast as a prisoner with tattoos and she'd say, 'Don't take your tattoos off tonight!' and I'd be like, 'All right!' But what works best with her is the stockbroker look. She also says, 'Do your sexy dance for me', (an '80s-like, hip-swiveling number) and that works for me."...
