Academy Award-winning actress Anne Hathaway has loose lips regarding some Auditions sheâs endured.
Part of this includes âChemistry Testsâ to ensure actors were compatible, she said in a recent interview with V Magazine.
She said, âIt was considered normal to ask an actor to make out with other actorsâ in the early 2000s.
âWhich is actually the worst way to do it,â she said. âI was told, âWe have 10 guys coming today, and youâre cast. Arenât you excited to make out with all of them?â And I thought, âIs there something wrong with me?â because I wasnât excited. I thought it sounded gross.â
But being new to acting, Hathaway said she âpretended I was excited and got on with it. It wasnât 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.â
She did not name the movie.
Hathaway has starred in several movies, including âThe Princess Diaries,â âElla Enchanted,â âThe Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement,â âBrokeback Mountain,â and âThe Devil Wears Prada,â per Fox News.
She won the Oscar for âLes Miserables.â
Hathaway received backlash after hosting the Academy Awards in 2011 with James Franco.
She told Vanity Fair in March she wasnât getting roles because executives âwere so concerned about how toxic identity had become online.â
But, as Hathaway said, such is the life of an actor.
âYou have to stay bold, and it can be hard because youâre like, âIf I stay safe, if I hug the middle, if I donât draw too much attention to myself, it wonât hurt.â But if you want to do that, donât be an actor,â she explained.
