She may have been the biggest surprise at February’s Oscars when she took the stage in a duet with Hugh Jackman. Who knew Anne Hathaway could sing? Harvey Weinstein did. Movie kingpin Harvey Weinstein said he had signed the Oscar-nominated actress to portray singer Judy Garland in both film and stage adaptations of the biography Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland. In a statement, Weinstein called Hathaway “brilliantly talented” and said “she will be a true class act in this challenging role.” Details of the project were scant. No writer or director is yet on board. Garland, of course, is the legendary movie star of Hollywood’s Golden Age who portrayed Dorothy in 1939’s The Wizard of Oz, starred opposite Mickey Rooney in the Andy Hardy films and was twice Oscar-nominated for roles in A Star is Born and Judgment at Nuremberg. She also enjoyed a long singing career and scored a No. 1 Grammy-winning album with Judy at Carnegie Hall from her 1961 concert at the famous Manhattan venue. Read the rest of this entry »
28/03 Hathaway to play Judy Garland on film and stage
25/03 Elegant Anne starts red trend
Hathaway laughs off drenching by fashion icon Valentino. Actress Anne Hathaway once again proved she can handle anything anyone can throw at her. Literally. The 27-year-old actress, who elegantly managed the fallout from the scandal that erupted when her boyfriend Raffaello Follieri was revealed to be a conman, showed extraordinary aplomb last week when the Italian designer Valentino spilt a glass of red wine all over the white dress she was wearing. Hathaway, who like other celebrities at the party (Madonna and Gwyneth who both, wisely it turns out, wore black) had borrowed the one-shoulder short sheath dress for the event, said the upside to the accident was the she gets to keep the dress. “The first thing I told him was, ‘ You’re not getting it back’,’’ laughed the actress. “I thought about the best fashion advice my grandmother ever gave me, which was ‘Start a trend’. So I’ve decided I’m starting the trend of getting red wine spilled all over you by an international fashion icon.”
22/03 Hathaway may play Judy Garland
Actress Anne Hathaway is in talks to play her movie idol Judy Garland in an upcoming film based on Gerald Clarke’s biography, Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland. The 26-year-old actress is said to be so keen to appear in the movie that she may have to sacrifice other projects, which include a lead role in a comedy called The Fiance, the Daily Mail reported in it’s online edition. The movie charts Judy’s rise to fame and her struggle with drink and drugs. “Anne dearly wants to do a musical and this could be her chance. The big attraction is that it really will be her singing, not recordings of Judy. She is determined to do it justice,” a source said. “If she nails the part, she will be a shoo-in for some big awards,” source added. The Weinstein Company has optioned the film and stage rights to the Garland story. Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland published in 2000, details how the actress and singer was plagued by personal problems and mistreated by employers, family and lovers. In 1999, the American Film Institute placed her among the ten greatest female stars in the history of American cinema. Garland died in 1969 at the age of 47 due to accidental drug overdose.
19/03 Hathaway’s dress disaster
Anne Hathaway begged Italian fashion designer Valentino Garavani to autograph her dress – after he accidentally spilt red wine all over the gown. The Devil Wears Prada star was at a private dinner for the 76-year-old in New York on Tuesday (March 17) night, which saw Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna turn out for the style mogul. Valentino was greeting his guests at the party when he knocked his glass of wine over Hathaway’s frock. But instead of getting worked up about the incident, Hathaway laughed off the spillage – and even asked the fashionista to sign the stained garment. An eyewitness tells the New York Daily News, “Anne was covered in wine, but she laughed about it. She told him, ‘I want you to autograph this dress and sign it right now.’”
13/03 Hathaway Gives Herself A Break
According to this site, Anne Hathaway gave herself some time off and was spotted relaxing in Liberia, Costa Rica. Hathaway went on a boat ride and, later on, posed for pictures with some fans who happened to be lucky enough to be vacationing there at the same time.
10/03 Hathaway Proclaims Love For ‘Family Guy’
If Anne Hathaway thought she was lusted after before, just wait ’til the Internet audience gets a load of this. Yes it’s true, one of the sexiest women in Hollywood is just like you, slouching at home watching cartoons. The similarities probably stop there however, but regardless the fact that Hathaway is now outed as a Family Guy and Aqua Teen Hunger Force fan elevates her to a new level of cool. The Rachel Getting Married actress gave MTV her television faves on the Oscars red carpet; check it out here.
07/03 Anne Hathaway’s Other Break Up
A small example of art imitating life, Anne Hathaway’s next movie role is placing her in some familiar territory. In the movie Fiance, she will play a woman who parts way with the seeming man of her dreams. Last year, Hathaway split with her then prince charming Raffaello Follieri shortly after he was imprisoned for fraud. In the new film, her character cancels her wedding and embarks on singledom in hopes of re-discovering herself despite the meddling efforts of he parents.
04/03 Slow updates
As you might discovered, picture updates are rather rare these past weeks. Truth is, I started a new school 3 weeks ago and there’s still a lot to catch up for me. Anyway, I’m trying my best to keep you up-to-date with all things Annie ;)
01/03 Hathaway’s favourite Oscars moment
Anne Hathaway’s favourite Oscars moment was being swept off her feet by Hugh Jackman. The Rachel Getting Married star – who was nominated in the Best Actress category – performed on stage with 40-year-old Hugh in a musical tribute to Best Picture nominee Frost/Nixon on Sunday (February 22). When asked what the best part of her evening was, Anne said: “I’d have to say being in Hugh Jackman’s arms and him carrying me on stage!” Anne, 26, played the role of former US President Richard Nixon in the comedy routine which the pair had rehearsed the previous week. She said: “I didn’t really have that much input for what went into it. They just said, ‘Show us what you got, and we’ll work around that.’ I’m a theatre-trained actress, so that kicked in for the singing.” Anne – who lost out on an Oscar to Kate Winslet – admits she was anxious before the ceremony. She explained: “I think I was nervous for that performance and nervous about the nomination and the two just cancelled each other out. But when you have a job to do, you just have to do it well – no time to be nervous.” The Devil Wears Prada actress became rather emotional during the evening when she was praised by former Oscar winner Shirley MacLaine, 74. She explained: “That was so, so special. Just really touching. Could you tell? I was crying and visibly overwhelmed. As such a powerful actress as she is, that she would say something like that to me, I felt so honoured.”
