The Princess of Genovia has spoken.
American actress Anne Hathaway has taken on bigger and more mature roles in television and film after her younger years in Princess Diaries. We’ve seen her in films like The Devil Wears Prada, Les Miserables, Love & Other Drugs, The Intern, One Day and Interstellar to name, and most recently, Colossal. Her growth as an actress and as an individual definitely bloomed through the years, as she takes on one movie at a time. Her success as an actress evidently shows how dedicated she is to her craft.
One of her most recent uploads on Instagram is a video of her addressing body shaming netizens. In her post, she admits that she is “gaining weight for a movie role and it is going well“.
She directly addresses her “fat shamers in the upcoming months” that “it’s not me, it’s you“.

The video is time-lapse of the 35-year-old lifting weights and completing other workouts.
Hathaway’s feisty approach towards negative comments from fans and haters is nothing new. Back in 2016, she clapped back against the public’s curiosity on her weight gain from pregnancy with DIY denim cut-offs.
“There is no shame in finally breaking down and making your own jean shorts because last summer’s are just too dang short for this summer’s thighs,” she quipped, according to a Vogue article. “Bodies change. Bodies grow. Bodies shrink. It’s all love.”

“People treated me a certain way,” said Hathaway in the interview with BAZAAR. “But I’ve grown from it. This whole thing has made me a way more compassionate and loving person. And I don’t feel sorry for myself.”
You go, princess!
