Hugh Jackman let his inner musical theater freak-flag fly at Sunday night’s MTV Movie & TV Awards, and we are 100 percent here for it.

MTV Awards host Adam Devine kicked off the show with an impressive “Beauty and the Beast”-inspired opener. During the performance, Devine and nominee Josh Gad serenaded Jackman for his role in “Logan,” and to be honest, Jackman couldn’t have been more delighted.

Just look at that boyish chuckle. 

FYI: If your award show musical number gets the nod of approval from Hugh Jackman, you’re doing all right. When it comes to delivering a pitch-perfect performance, nobody does it better than Jackman.  

And let’s face it, you can take Hugh Jackman out of the Tonys, but you can’t take the Tonys out of Hugh Jackman.
