He's known to be a fan of the art of dance, hopping through his Tony's hosting gig last June.

And on Friday Hugh Jackman was back up to his old tricks, this time showing off some daggy dad moves on Instagram.

The 46-year-old shared the fun video to his 1.7million followers, joking: 'I plead the 5th on explaining away these awesomely embarrassing dance moves.'

Hugh wore a blazer over his T-shirt, which obviously offered no bodily restrictions, allowing him freedom to flaunt his moves.

Reaction from fans was mixed, with one user commenting 'Love u, but those last moves gotta go,' while another joked 'the 5th won't stand in an Australian court,' in reference to Hugh's comment about the fifth amendment of the US Constitution.

But there was plenty of support too, with comments like 'oh god... could this man get any hotter' and 'Nothing you can't do? And make it look good too.'
