The Oscar-winning actress Anne Hathaway recently took the Instagram and clear her reason for gaining weight as she is working for a movie role, but instead of talking about that movie role, she’s having to deny rumors and justify her changing body.
“I’m gaining weight for a movie role and it is going well. To all the people who are going to fat shame me in the upcoming months, it’s not me, it’s you. Peace xx” wrote Anne on her Instagram.
While her role in the film is powerful and somewhat unforgiving, the actress still personally battles with being fat-shamed because of her changing body.
“I didn’t feel like dealing with the pregnancy rumours. I find it bizarre that there’s a storm to get ahead of, but I have a history of being shamed and humiliated, for a lot of different reasons”, said Anne in an interview.
Another topic broached during the interview was Hathaway’s involvement in the #TimesUp movement, which aims to eliminate sexual misconduct and the gender power imbalance in Hollywood.
“I’ve had a 20-year career and I’ve had some really, really bad experiences, but I’ve had a lot of great ones too with members of both genders”, she explained.
“While they do not begin to approach the atrocious, galling stories others have shared in recent months, I have had negative on-set experiences, some of a sexual nature. Some are from the beginning of my career, some are more recent – all are unacceptable”, continued the actress.
