Anne Hathaway is stunning. Could she look any more statuesque? I would have been worried that she would have been washed out in white - here at the premiere of Get Smart in Rome, but she looks simply amazing. I’d almost say Hepburn-esque! LOVE the broached waistline, adore the layer skirt and admire the simple hair that lets us focus on the gown.

Get Smart starring >Steve Carell, Dwayne Johnson, and Anne Hathaway as Agent 99 opened here in the U.S. on June 20th with $39.2 million making it the Number One movie that weekend.

I often think that I don’t really like Anne Hathaway. Probably because she has such a shady boyfriend. Though she often seems nice, she also seems a little lacking in personality. Though she could just APPEAR that way because she’s one of the few Hollywood starlets that doesn’t go out, get wasted, and act like a fool every other night. So by comparison, she’s a lot more sedate. But I can’t help but like anyone who compares making out with Steve Carell to “the yummiest lollipop.”

Hathaway is making the rounds on the media circuit, promoting her upcoming film Get Smart with Carell and Duane “The Rock” Johnson. She was asked what it was like filming the movie almost entirely with men – and how she felt about getting intimate with Carell.

Before the movie ends, the two of them become drawn to each other emotionally and physically. That leads to the inevitable question: What was it like to “make out” with Carell?

“Making out with him is like the yummiest lollipop,” says Hathaway who is a big fan of Carell’s TV series, The Office. “You are so full of it,” protests Carell, who’s sitting next to her. “Dipped in sunshine!” Hathaway continues. “Stop it!” insists Carell, who’s now starting to break up. “And wrapped around in a masculine wrapper,” she adds serenely. “That’s the only way I can think to describe it.”

Actually, Hathaway has more to say about these amorous scenes. It seems she wasn’t at all well at the time. “OK, so you’ve got to hear this,” she chortles. It seems a certain contact lens solution had ended up giving her conjunctivitis.

“And I had a sinus infection at the same time, so I had to go up to Steve — my eye is red, puffy and dripping green, I am just snotty — and I’m like, ‘Come here!’ The worst thing was we didn’t know I had conjunctivitis at the time, so I had to call our producer, Alex Gartner, that night and say, ‘You might want to let Steve know I had pink eye and my tears kind of got in my mouth, so he might want to worry about that.’”

Wow, that’s incredibly gross. As flattering as Hathaway is about making out with Carell, I can’t help but doubt that he felt the same about her. What with the snot and the pink eye and all. Hathaway claims that the final version of the make out scene came out “very glamorous.” They must have some really good editors at their studio.
