In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, the 41-year-old actress Anne Hathaway challenged the notion that female celebrities must only have certain types of sex appeal. She was informed early in her career that she didn’t have it, which she considers ridiculous.
The actress, who is well-known for her parts in “The Princess Diaries” and “The Devil Wears Prada,” admits that she used to feel under pressure to adhere to the “male gaze” that ruled Hollywood. This ubiquitous ideal frequently portrayed a youthful, extremely particular kind of appeal.
As she promotes “The Idea of You,” her latest movie, Hathaway adopts a more sophisticated sensuality. The movie examines the relationship between a younger guy and an older lady, and this concept is reflected in the Vanity Fair picture session.
Norman Jean Roy captures Hathaway looking stunning in a variety of outfits, such as a transparent dress and a black bodysuit. After the picture shoot, there have been difficulties with this change. Because of unfavorable social media talk, Hathaway was criticized online for being viewed as “too prim,” and several filmmakers chose not to cast her.
The conversation explores Hathaway’s prior experiences with anxiety. She is candid about her panic episodes on set and the emotional toll they took on her.
She has, however, gained insightful knowledge. Hathaway now actively promotes mental health awareness and gives her well-being a top priority when choosing projects to work on. She takes issue with the advice given to aspiring actors, which is to present an unbreakable façade and be reserved. Hathaway disagrees, saying that what matters most is genuineness.
Director Christopher Nolan remained a staunch supporter of it all. By giving her a part in the movie “Interstellar,” which gave her the chance to show off her skills, Hathaway believes he “rescued” her career. Hathaway’s story serves as motivation for anyone who has experienced criticism or pressure to fit in.
She welcomes the difficulties that come with being an artist who dares to push boundaries and promotes vulnerability.
