What if Twitter had existed when Sally Field bragged about how we really like her?

Salon brings in the scientists, who tell us we hate her because of her face. “When times are good, we prefer actresses with rounder faces,” psychology professor Terry Pettijohn says. “They convey these ideas of fun and youth.” But Hathaway’s face is bony and slender! “As the economy improves, Hathaway—whose peak of fame, post-boyfriend, pre–Oscar hosting, came amid the 2008 crash—may just be a reminder of bad times.” Science.
After a report came out that the star rehearsed her Oscar speech to sound less annoying, Rich Juzwiak at Gawker wrote: “It creates a new reason to be mad at Anne Hathaway. It’s one thing if she’s just being herself; it’s another if she’s trying to be likable and failing.”
Over at The Cut, Ann Friedman examines what we perceive to be Hathaway’s most egregious crime: she’s not Jennifer Lawrence.
The culturewide attack on the Hathaway is utterly bizarre—except that it isn’t. It is the rawest example yet of our 2013, Twitter-loving, insta-pundit, mountain-out-of-a-molehill media culture. It’s not that we judge stars more than we used to. It’s that we now have the platform to do it in real time and expect those being judged to care enough to respond and take action, again in real time.
Anne gets some undeserved female hatred because she bedded me, and that made a lot of ladies jealous.
Who cares? More bread and circuses while the barbarians continue their assault on America.
I think she’s absolutely, drop-dead gorgeous . . . even though she’s more than likely a libtard Hollyweirdo. She has the most incredible eyes and skin.
Precisely.
Yeah - this reminds me of the Great Nothing from ‘The Neverending Story’. It just keeps eating the universe.
Anne - Grow your hair back. The “boyish” look does not suit you. Also, do something about the nose. Right now, you looking like the Joker’s daughter.
Far and away the best of the recent Catwomen.
probably her political views.
also her princess bride co-star’s claims of “a relationship.”
also her terrible acting mucking up movies which could have been perfomred better by someone else.
LOL! And then your alarm clock went off and the dream was over.
I guess I’m just showing how far out of the popular culture loop I am by acknowledging that I have no clue who Ann Hathaway is.
Hathaway has been enormously successful for no apparent reason. End of story.
ps
She is very skinny
Anne who?
Sally Fields and Cuba Gooding Jr. got a taste of the same mockery and eye rolling with their over the top acceptance speeches.
her vs the model?
seriously? that is not a contest.
DC Comics suits have no clue about comics or their stories. They just want PC. I suspect in this story, the casting couch is alive and well.
Who cares? More bread and circuses while the barbarians continue their assault on America.
p.s.--while i like her with long hair, i think she wears the pixie cut well... most cannot...
for Anne, the hatred began before the acceptance speeches...
