Actor Hugh Grant says once he got the power, he became interfering behind the camera, and he was like legendary singer and actress Barbra Streisand in trousers.

Grant and actor Colin Farrell recently talked about how their careers have changed over the years during Season 5 of "Actors on Actors", reports variety.com.

"Once I got the power, I then became very interfering behind the camera as well," Grant said.

"Barbra Streisand in trousers, I was. I was just awful. Everything down to how the poster works, but I'm better about that now."

The "Florence Foster Jenkins" actor said his diva tendencies mostly revolved around how comedies are edited.

"It's such a fragile thing, jokes," he said. "It only takes one tiny thing and suddenly the laugh is lost."
