This one-on-one interview with Anne Hathaway for the Philippine Star Entertainment Section with Editor Ricky Lo is creating a buzz now in the online world.
Some say they cringed at the awkwardness and the seemingly underprepared Ricky Lo while also calling out lowly local showbiz interview norms.
On the other hand, some say that it was Les Miserables star Anne Hathaway who was not very giving with her responses.
What’s your take on the issue?
Here’s the full video:

deeyyymmmm…wers the video
what can you expect from Ricky Lo? He’s the worst! I remember when he interviewed the family of deceased Francis M (bless his good soul), asking each member of the family, “what can you say to your dad if ever he’s alive right now?” My god! such rudeness exploiting one’s emotion at the height of grief. Such a classless “tsismoso”
Ricky Lo did get the idea that he is so awkward already,,, he ddnt even get that “binara na xa ni Anne” how stupid! LOL
He did a very cheap interview! Why talk about her Mom, Lea, weight?? The interview is all about Anne in the movie? He is freak show! He bullies Charice about her twang now look at him trying to speak twang but over failure! he is a dumb! lol
ka-toink!
