Anne Hathaway Wasn't Happy After Oscars Win, Responds to the Internet Turning On Her

Anne Hathaway is speaking out about her Oscars win and how she was not actually happy when she won the coveted award.

“You’re supposed to be happy,” the 38-year-old actress told The Sun on Sunday. “I didn’t feel that way.” Anne won the award in 2013 for her work in Les Miserables, and around that time, she was facing backlash, magnified by an article asking why everyone “hated” her.

“I felt wrong that I was standing there in a gown that cost more than some people are going to see in their lifetime and winning an award for portraying pain that still felt very much a part of our collective experience as human beings,” she added. “I tried to pretend that I was happy and I got called out on it, big time.”

“I really don’t want to dredge up the past, but I did have my monster out there, I did have the internet turn on me and hate me and it was like a whole big thing,” she added. “And it was a really good thing for me personally. You can be incredibly empowered because of those things. So I guess what I’d say is bad s–t happens, don’t fear it—just go with it, flow with it.”
