When Anne Hathaway was announced as the Best Supporting Actress at the 2013 Oscars, the actress emotionally exclaimed: “It’s true!”. 

However, the glory seemed to bring more trouble to “miserable Fantine” when there was a whole group 

that hated the star of Les Misérables because of her “nipple-revealing” dress, short hair, and prepared speech.

The most hated “Prestige-wearing witch” in America

The Oscar statuette went to Anne Hathaway. No one can deny Anne’s acting talent and sacrifice for the role of Fantine in “Les Mirerables”, 

even though she only appeared in a short segment in the film. 

However, after the awards ceremony, from the streets to the internet, there were many unfriendly comments about Anne. 

There was even a group called “Hathahaters” (tentatively translated: People who hate Hathaway) that was established.

When she won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, she was criticized for being vain. When she received the award, she changed her outfit to avoid wearing the same outfit as her colleagues, but the actress’s Prada dress became the subject of an online joke, as many people thought she intentionally showed off her nipples with this design. When Anne received the award and gave a touching speech, she was immediately criticized for being fake…

In fact, since she first entered the entertainment industry, the audience began to curse her for no reason. It is known that at its peak, there were an average of more than 10 comments cursing her every minute online. Anne was beautiful, so the public immediately compared her to a moving vase. When she made a scene, they said she looked like a clown.

When her boyfriend was investigated by the police for fraud, Anne Hathaway broke up with her boyfriend and was also cursed by netizens, saying that she was cold-blooded and heartless, a poisonous snake… Even the New York Times once published a comment calling Anne Hathaway the most hated person of the year. All of these things made her extremely miserable.

As time went by, Anne’s evaluation became worse and worse, and all netizens joined in cursing her. Later, in a program, Anne Hathaway confided that those things had become an obsession for her, but netizens still refused to let go. The matter became more and more serious when an anti-fan deliberately spread fake news that Anne Hathaway, while filming the movie “Les Miserables”, had forced the production team to change the script because she refused to dye her hair. Netizens became even angrier when they heard the news, creating a large number of ugly pictures of Anne Hathaway.

In order to change her perfect image, she did not hesitate to rap on a TV show, making herself ugly, but netizens were still not satisfied. Finally, feeling tired of winning the love of anti-fans, she decided to devote her passion to more meaningful things.

She began participating in social activities, regularly visiting children with cancer at the hospital. Even when she got married, she sold her wedding photos and donated all the proceeds to the marriage equality organization.

Since she started participating in social activities, Anne gradually felt that life was extremely meaningful and she became stronger and stronger, and gradually discovered the reason why she was hated. She understood that she was hated because of the deep-rooted misogyny in everyone. At the same time, she herself admitted that she was like that before: “When I received scripts from female directors, I often had to think for a long time.

After realizing this point, Anne Hathaway ignored anti-fans and began to invest in her career of demanding equal rights for women in her industry, trying to change misogyny and gain more rights for women.

On International Women’s Day 2017, at the United Nations meeting, Anne Hathaway called for increased maternity benefits for women. At the same time, Anne Hathaway also began to care about a minority group to promote equal rights for the LGBT community. Although the online community still has opinions that she is not good, Anne Hathaway no longer cares about this.

Box office queen

Despite being openly opposed by anti-fans, Anne Hathaway’s career has developed brilliantly with her utmost efforts. Right from her first movie The Princess Diaries (2001) (Vietnamese title: Princess Diaries), Anne Hathaway made a strong impression on young people with her timeless beauty when playing the role of the sloppy student Mia Thermopolis. 3 years later, she continued to act in the sequel The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement. Since then, Hathaway has starred in many family films.

But Anne Hathaway did not want to confine herself to the image of a beautiful, silly princess, so in the movie “Prestige”, the classic change scene in the movie became Anne Hathaway’s trademark. Thanks to this film, Anne Hathaway rose to the ranks of Hollywood’s A-list stars.

After that, she worked even harder on her acting, not only playing the role of the ghostly white queen (Alice in Wonderland – 2010) but also playing the role of the catwoman (Catwoman) sexy (in The Dark Knight Rises in 2012), vividly recreating the character Jane (in Becoming Jane – 2007)… She also challenged herself with the role of Maggie crazy for love in Love & Other Drugs.

These roles helped Anne Hathaway receive countless awards. In 2008, with the complex psychological changes, multi-dimensional emotions of the young woman Kym Buchman addicted to drugs and cigarettes in Rachel getting married, Anne Hathaway was nominated for her first Oscar in her career in the category of Best Actress. After that, the role of Fantine in Les Miserables brought Anne Hathaway an Oscar in the category of Best Supporting Actress as well as a Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild and BAFTA award.

Besides her natural talent and being born into a family with a mother who is also an actress, Anne Hathaway did not let herself go. She was very diligent in learning and investing in each character. For example, before filming Les Miserables, within a week, Anne Hathaway lost 11kg, even had a tooth pulled out to make her face more concave, suitable for the poor role in the film.

It is estimated that a total of 23 films by Anne Hathaway have grossed more than 5 billion USD, helping her enter the list of Top 100 highest-grossing actors of all time. For example, the film Princess Diaries with an investment budget of only 40 million USD brought in nearly 140 million USD. Or the film Black Hole in 2014, by Anne, brought in nearly 700 million USD and made her a box office guarantor.

Along with a series of consecutive successful roles, Anne Hathaway has become one of the top stars in Hollywood today. People magazine named her one of the breakout stars of 2001, and she was also named one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the World in 2006. With talent and hard work, Anne Hathaway’s success was a given. Those who tried to defame her were eventually defeated by her work!
