Anne Hathaway Worries: "Am I Thin Enough? Am I Too Thin?"



Even A-list movie stars like Anne Hathaway have their insecurities.

"I still feel the stress over 'Am I thin enough? Am I too thin? Is my body the right shape?'" the Les Miserables star admits in the January issue of Glamour. "There's an obsessive quality to it that I thought I would've grown out of by now. It's an ongoing source of shame for me."

Being in the public eye exacerbates her body woes, according to the star. "I just think about the ridicule you get if you have an off day. If people weren't watching, I'd be so much more eccentric. I know it makes me sound weak, but rather than make myself happy and wear the silly hat and say, 'Oh, I don't care.' I actually really don't feel like getting made fun of," she says. "So I put on something boring and navy and go out and try to disappear."

Since late 2007, Hathaway has been trying to ignore the negative thoughts in her head and focus on the positives in her life. (At the time, she had recently split with Italian real estate developer Raffaello Follieri, who pleaded guilty to 14 counts of wire fraud, money laundering and conspiracy in October 2008. Says the star, "My trust had "been betrayed quite massively.")

"There's no magic bullet. There's no pill that you take that makes everything great and makes you happy all the time," Hathaway says. "I'm letting go of those expectations, and that's opening me up to moments of transcendent bliss."

boo, you may think she's perf etc but she's in an industry that regularly criticizes her body so tbh she has every right to feel how she feels.

Honestly, I know tons of girls with AMAZING bodies and yet they still struggle to find themselves attractive.

If you're already insecure about your appearance, Hollywood will hit you hard. You get it from both sides. If you gain weight, you're fat and disgusting. If you lose too much weight, you're abnormally thin and need to eat a burger. So if you already struggle with those issues or have a disorder that triggers those issues, you're going to feel that way. Even when WE think they look perfect.
