Academy Award-winning actress Anne Hathaway has loose lips regarding some auditions she’s endured.

Part of this includes “chemistry tests” to ensure actors were compatible, she said in a recent interview with V Magazine.

She said, “It was considered normal to ask an actor to make out with other actors” in the early 2000s.

“Which is actually the worst way to do it,” she said. “I was told, ‘We have 10 guys coming today, and you’re cast. Aren’t you excited to make out with all of them?’ And I thought, ‘Is there something wrong with me?’ because I wasn’t excited. I thought it sounded gross.” 

But being new to acting, Hathaway said she “pretended I was excited and got on with it. It wasn’t a power play. No one was trying to be awful or hurt me. It was just a very different time, and now we know better.”

She did not name the movie.

Hathaway has starred in several movies, including “The Princess Diaries,” “Ella Enchanted,” “The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement,” “Brokeback Mountain,” and “The Devil Wears Prada,” per Fox News.

She won the Oscar for “Les Miserables.” 

Hathaway received backlash after hosting the Academy Awards in 2011 with James Franco.

She told Vanity Fair in March she wasn’t getting roles because executives “were so concerned about how toxic [her] identity had become online.”

But, as Hathaway said, such is the life of an actor.

“You have to stay bold, and it can be hard because you’re like, ‘If I stay safe, if I hug the middle, if I don’t draw too much attention to myself, it won’t hurt.’ But if you want to do that, don’t be an actor,” she explained.
