Anne Hathaway, Don't Say You're Sorry!
Anne Hathaway, Don't Say You're Sorry!
Let’s stop dignifying the manipulative games of attention-seeking “journalists.”
The pop culture machine is in overdrive. Paul Mescal showed thigh in a kilt for GQ and addressed the bizarre TikTok-fueled rumor that he would have one-night stands, take them for walks in the park the next day, point out a bird or a tree and then take off running in another direction (“categorically untrue”).
Academy Award-winner Jessica Chastain aired (then deleted) her grievances with JetBlue over a $15 credit she received for a flight.
Ariana Grande introduced Antonio, a boy who was castrated to keep his voice high so he can impress the prince with his vocal talents, to the zeitgeist during her appearance on SNL.
Andrew Garfield spoke eloquently about grief and suffering.
Tyra Banks made her return to the Victoria’s Secret runway after 19 years.
Cooper Koch revealed that he did not use a prosthetic when showing dong on Monsters.
Jonathan Groff was forced to address the bizarre and unfounded rumor that his bestie Lea Michele can’t read. A source is telling People Mag that Nicole Kidman and Salma Hayek "love and respect each other" after a video of the pair at Balenciaga's show sparked rumors of tension between them. And Cynthia Erivo took to Instagram to slam “offensive” and “deeply hurtful” fan edits of the Wicked poster.
But all I can think about is a bizarre news story from last week that had Anne Hathaway, whose press cycle has shifted to “Anne Hathaway Surprises Everyone With Performance of ‘Somebody to Love’ at Kamala Harris Rally,” apologizing for her behavior in a press junket from over a decade ago. It’s stupid, really. Not Anne, but the baiting of an undue apology by a journalist clearly looking to make herself the story. Let’s review.
