Less than two weeks, y’all. We only have to survive Anne Hathaway’s Oscar campaign for two more weeks. After that, maybe she’ll calm down a little bit? Here’s the thing – I think Anne heard the backlash and she has been trying to take it down a notch over the past month. This is Annie being less in-our-faces, if you can believe that. But I think that whenever she wins something (and she’s won at EVERY awards show), she gets an awards-high and it lasts through the post-awards interviews, so we just feel like we’re being inundated with constant ANNIE!! So that might explain this interview Anne did with People Magazine. To be fair to her, they’re the ones asking about where she’ll keep her Oscar and all of that. She didn’t bring it up. But she certainly took part in the conversation, bad juju and all.
She’s won big at the Golden Globes and now the BAFTAs, but will Anne Hathaway take home an Oscar?
Hathaway – who is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Les Misérables – isn’t spending too much time worrying about it.
“Whatever happens in two weeks, happens. It won’t be the worst thing that happens to me if I don’t win, and with my husband by my side it won’t be the best thing either. So I am feeling very good about whatever,” the actress, 30, told reporters backstage after nabbing a best supporting actress statue at Sunday’s British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards in London.
“I really have to say that getting to do the work, getting to play the character with this cast and to have this opportunity, it is the most sublime experience. I don’t know how I got so lucky. … So I don’t think ahead – I am just happy to be in the conversation in two weeks’ time,” she said.
But should she win, Hathaway has been imagining where to keep her statue.
“I kind of have this fantasy – because this year that I have been lucky enough to receive a few pieces of hardware – that I’m going to get a tool shed and keep it in my garage so that it opens to some music. But for now I am just going to keep it in my kitchen,” she said.
While she’s earned awards and received critical acclaim for her portrayal of Fantine, she says the best thing to come of filming the musical epic was meeting costar Russell Crowe.
“The biggest surprise of the whole experience was what a sweetie pie Russell Crowe was. The whole cast would kind of gather around his place and we would just sing for hours. We all bonded that way. He has become a dear, dear friend,” she said, “and I feel very blessed to have him in our life.”
That one part is awkwardly worded, right? “It won’t be the worst thing that happens to me if I don’t win, and with my husband by my side it won’t be the best thing either.” I think she means that “the best thing” already happened to her, which is that she married her husband. But the awkward wording makes it sound like no night spent with her husband will ever be her best night. As for Anne’s happy-blasé talk about winning… she’s going to win. I hate to burst anyone’s conspiracy theory in which Sally Field steals it. If there’s going to be a surprise, it will be in Best Actress. Or Best Actor. Or Best Supporting Actor (because literally no one knows who will win that, it’s anybody’s guess). Annie is the one “lock”. So maybe she’s just phoning it in at this point.

She’s an annoying, little, lying liar, isn’t she?
Ugh. Of course she’ll keep the Oscar in her kitchen. No way she’d devote an entire room of the house just to “AnnE’s Awards”! *sarcasm snort*

They will. She and DDL are pretty much a lock.

You can tell even though she knows she is a lock she stil worries about not getting it. I hope for the sake of her mental health, the producers decide to give her at the beginning of the night so we can all move on and she doesn’t die.

While she’s most likely a lock in, there HAS been a few rare upsets in the past where a person has won every award in their category except that damn Oscar. She actually kinda does have something to worry about now if she doesn’t win, because on top of the expected dissappointment, she’ll also have to deal with a ton of people online sneering at her. It’s all her own silly fault though – if she had not campaigned so blatantly and desperately there wouldn’t be the pressure she’s feeling now.

IA! I think her biggest problem is that she doesn’t downplay her ambition like her peers so she gets it even harder. I like her though but I there is no way she will lose Oscar night. She even hosted the Oscars, that is how much the Academy loves her and she won every. single. award. out there. Had she lost one, things would be different.

I agree, I think an upset can still happen, so I wouln’t bet on an Ann with an E sweep quite yet.

Actually, I think you’re on target. IIRC, best supporting actress/actor are the first 2 awards given out. Then there’s a loooong stretch with nothing interesting…then we get best actress/actor/director/picture.

oh what the he’n double hockey stick ever.. if she doesn’t win I see an epic size temper tantrum coming when she gets home. with as much as she’s been every where, she wants it-and that’s ok, but she’s annoying me so I kinda hope that she doesn’t get it..

I’m willing to bet my third born they will give it to this insufferable bore. But I wish JLAw would get it just to see the fake happy applause Anne would have to give when they turn the camera on her.
BTW I don’t really have a third born, so I’m praying she doesn’t win.

I am sorry to say it (not really) but, sure, she was really amazing and did a great work with the vocals, but seriously? Did she really deserve EACH of the award she got so far? Was she really better than the other nominees, so much better than even considering another winner for Best Supporting Actress would be a scandal? Come on, she was in Le Mis for barely 30 minutes..

Seriously!! I just don’t see how that part is really deserving of all these awards. And I don’t even think the singing was all that special. When i think back on the movie, all I see is the over acted, super annoying I dream a dream scene. I’m over it.

Agreed. You know who should have been nominated from that movie? Samantha Barks. “On My Own” was so hrartbreaking and it wasnt over the top like Annies performance. Also, she was in the movie for about 15 minutes. Its performances like this that make me think that there should be a minimum screen time requirement in order to be nominated for these awards.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Completely agree. Samantha Barks was much better in her role than Anne was in hers. Anne was fine, but it wasn’t an earth-shattering performance. And, I know I’ve said it on this site before, but Anne’s death scene was so ridiculously over the top. It was awful.
I really liked Jackie Weaver from Silver Linings Playbook. I think she and Robert DiNiro were fantastic.

I agree with everything you said. I did not know who Samantha Barks was, but after seeing her in Les Miserables, I immediately google to see the whole cast. She was fantastic, what a presence on screen!

Barks’ total lack of recognition leading into and during this awards season makes me wonder whether she’s been blocked. It wouldn’t be the first time (and it certainly won’t be the last time) this has happened to a lesser known, less powerfully represented actor or actress.
(Sidenote: the role of Eponine was at one time loosely attached to Taylor Swift. Had Swifty taken the role, I imagine that the interplay on set between Hathaway and Swift would have been EPIC.)
I’d also like to add that, at the moment, “Anne Hathaway annoying” returns 1.1 million hits when googled. “Anne Hathaway extremely annoying” weighs in at 1.3 million+ hits.
Oh yeah, I had to see for myself — I just needed that extra validation.

Look at her in the middle picture, she is so effing ridiculous and crazy looking, what is that? So done with her. She’s so desperate and fake. It’s like, calm down. It’s only supporting actress, we all know that doesn’t count. It’s not like you’re Best Actress. People are actually more focused on JLaw right now. Who, by the way, is like 10 years younger than you and more gracious and a better actress than you will ever be. It’s like she’s trying to steal the spotlight, My God.
She’s just so basic. You would never see actual acting legends behaving like this. Her BAFTA speech was so embarrassing. I cannot imagine her at the Oscars with her “omg me?” act. She’s the Taylor Swift of acting.

exactly ,only one word to describe her”mad”,like others pointed out ,she was ‘nt in the entire movie ,and honestly not that mind blowing ,i was kinda bored with her not moved at all,even ben affleck or jlaw or chastain they are winning at awards ,no one is acting so mental,i hope the oscars snub her as a payback for her awful hosting

This is making her so annoying that it doesn’t matter if she wins. People are very very over her right now and it will hurt her image in the long run. Every site I read has the exact same comments. Her behavior is very offputting and this is hurting her more than helping her. To this day people are still mocking Sally Field’s whole “You like me! You really like me!” Sally is probably like “I wasn’t this desperate, was I?”
I don’t get what is going on here. She’s been nominated for Best Actress before. She’s like crazy now. The way she hugged and embraced Amanda Seyfried at the Golden Globes and she was not having.
Too many over the top fakeness. I feel like she’s acting all the time and we don’t know who she is.

@ Annie
I’d respect Sally Field’s “desperation” back then, than I do with Hathaway’s. I was watching this year’s oscar roundtable, and Sally brought up just how the industry had changed.
When Sally started out, tv actors were just tv actors, ditto for film. You just don’t make a switch ever…especially if you were a woman. Especially if you did comedies and romance, not drama. So for her, (who by her comments had low self esteem in her early years)to transition into film and win an oscar (she won two right?) is amazing. Especially when she wasn’t the standard beauty, no Elizabeth Taylor.
So, she had harder obstacles to overcome when working in Hollywood. Hathaway doesn’t and didn’t.

Frankly in Best Supporting Actor, I really do see Christoph Waltz getting the statuette, runners up would be Philip Seymour Hoffman and Tommy Lee.

“It won’t be the worst thing that happens to me if I don’t win, and with my husband by my side it won’t be the best thing either.”
Freudian slip? Her husband is a fairly unknown actor so I’m sure he thinks he’s hit the career/life/money jackpot with AnnE, but he sure seems to take a backseat in their relationship/life together. She probably likes it that way, but I wonder how long he can take it once the Honeymoon period wears off. His life will be hell if she loses.

I wish AnnE wouldn’t win but I think we all know she will. I have a question. Why would someone like AnnE want to win an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress? Doesn’t she aspire to the Best Actress catergory? Nobody remembers the best friend they only remember the lead. She keeps mentioning her husband and how wonderful he is and that he is the best thing to happen to her. I think she is just saying that to pretend even to herself that she is humble when it really just screams the opposite. An Oscar is much more important than some scrappy white skinny jeans wearing husband ever could be. Someone on here said that “jewelery designer” means trust fund kid so I wonder if he comes from lots of money.
