Anne Hathaway on the cover of PARADE
Get Smart star Anne Hathaway is the cover story from the June 1 issue of PARADE. Here are some interview excerpts:
On wanting to be known for more than just being nice: “It’s not that I’m all that bad. (laughs) I just think that people had this idea that I sat at home and sucked on lollipops and ate cotton candy while I watched cartoons—wearing a tiara.”
On the death of her Brokeback Mountain costar Heath Ledger: “That was tough. I hesitate to talk about Heath. He was special in so many ways. I can tell you that I feel I cared about him more than I actually knew him. It was devastating, and the people who were closest to him should talk about him in their own time.”
On what drives her now: “Well, I’d have to say a part of me is driven by gratitude, gratefulness. There are people that are a lot more talented than I am who have not enjoyed the success that I’ve enjoyed. And I don’t ever want to appear ungrateful for all that I have. I think pride drives me a bit as well. I don’t want to fail, which is part of the perfectionism I’m trying to overcome. I’m still dealing with it.”
