"The Devil Wears Prada 2" returning Hollywood actor Anne Hathaway (43) candidly expressed her feelings about anxiety regarding her body and appearance obsession.
On the 27th (local time), according to the Daily Mail, Anne Hathaway hinted in a recent interview in the May issue of Harper's Bazaar that she experiences complex emotions every time she looks in the mirror and suffers from body dysmorphia (Body Dysmorphia).
In the interview Hathaway confessed, "Some days I look in the mirror and think, 'Not bad,' but other days I look at myself and am shocked, thinking, 'Oh my God, what is this?'" and added, "I recently went through one of those hard days."
In particular, she also shared a dizzying anecdote that happened during a family trip. She accidentally packed a "daring swimsuit" she had been saving for days when she felt good. Hathaway recalled, "Of all days, I had to wear that swimsuit on a day when I didn't like my appearance. I felt extreme anxiety at the thought of having to go out in a place full of strangers and camera phones."
But she soon pulled herself together. Hathaway said, "My family was waiting, and I looked in the mirror again and soothed myself, 'You are 43. For a 43-year-old body, you're great,'" adding, "I was anxious when I expected something other than myself, but when I looked at myself as I am, I felt better," which resonated with many.
In her early debut in 2008, she suffered from appearance obsession to the point of feeling pressured to have a nose job, but now she revealed a more mature inner self, saying, "I realized I need to spend my energy on things that really matter rather than worrying about aging." She added, "Entering my 40s, I discovered another gear in my life. I am much happier now than when I was younger."
Earlier on the 24th, Anne Hathaway's appearance at the "2026 Bulgari High Jewelry Collection" event shared on Vogue Hong Kong and Taiwan's official social media also drew attention. Posing next to actress Kim Ji-won, Hathaway drew more eyes and received reactions saying, "She hasn't aged at all," noting her surprising youthful beauty.
Moreover, recently on online communities and among fans, there has been nonstop speculation that Hathaway's look during the filming and red carpet events for "The Devil Wears Prada 2" seemed like she had returned to her 20s, suggesting she may have had "tweakments" (tweakments, minor procedures), including a facelift.
She refused to answer this. Instead of confirming any specific procedures, she cited abstaining from alcohol and consistent skincare as her "secret to staying youthful." She said that besides the effects of products from the brand she serves as an ambassador for, the decision to quit drinking greatly helped her appearance care.
