Anne Hathaway – who has since won an Oscar, Emmy, Golden Globe and BAFTA – revealed she felt pressure not to be labeled difficult
The Oscar-winning actress, Anne Hathaway described a “disgusting” audition in the past where she had to kiss 10 men.
The 41-year-old star described the experience, which she said took place in the early 2000s, a “different time”, according to her.
He told V magazine: “Back in the 2000s – and this actually happened to me – it was considered normal to ask an actor to kiss other actors, to test chemistry, which is actually the worst way to do it.
They told me: ”We have 10 men coming today for a trial. Aren’t you excited to kiss all of them?” And I thought, “Is something wrong with me?”, because I wasn’t excited. I found it disgusting“, said the actress meaningfully.
And he continued: “I was so young and acutely aware of how easy it was to lose everything by being labeled ‘difficult’, so I pretended to be excited and carried on. It wasn’t a power play, no one was trying to be mean or hurt me. It was just a very different time and now we know better.”.
Hathaway did not specify which film she was auditioning for or who the male actors were.

The actress compared the casting process to that of her upcoming romantic comedy “The Idea Of You”in which she plays a 40-year-old single mother who becomes involved with a 24-year-old singer.
“We asked each of the actors who were coming in to pick a song that they felt their character would like, which they would put on to make the character I’m playing dance to, and then we did a quick little improvisation.”Hathaway said.
Describing the casting with 29-year-old British actor Nicholas Galitzine – who won the role – he said he chose an Alabama Shakes song and the audition was, quite simply, easy.
Anne Hathaway became famous in 2001, after the release of the original film “The Princess Diaries”, alongside Dame Julie Andrews. In her interview, she addressed the rumors about the possibility of a third film.
“We’re in a good spot… That’s all I can say. Nothing to announce yet. But we’re in a good spot,” the actress said.
