Hugh Jackman threw a singing performance for Rupert Murdoch at his star-studded, lavish 95th birthday celebration.

On Saturday, March 7, the conservation media mogul threw his birthday party at The Grill in Midtown Manhattan with a variety of A-listers in attendance. The event also included a video message from President Donald Trump.

During the event, Jackman performed songs from The Greatest Showman, as per PEOPLE. He performed renditions of "Fly Me to the Moon" and "New York, New York" before closing with Peter Allen’s "I Still Call Australia Home," as a source attending the party shared with the outlet.

The insider added that Ivanka Trump, who has a close friendship with Jackman, “was cheering him on.”

Sutton Foster, the girlfriend and former Broadway co-star of Jackman in the revival of The Music Man, was not present at the gathering, according to a source.

Meanwhile, Rupert Murdoch arrived at the Saturday evening birthday celebration alongside his wife Elena Zhukova, whom he married in 2024, and his son Lachlan Murdoch. Lachlan is set to inherit his father’s vast media empire, including Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, and The New York Post, following the elder Murdoch’s passing.
