Does the actor’s recent excited outburst in support of Arsenal FC reveal a deep love of the game – or a cynical bit of media massaging by a lukewarm star?
Anne Hathaway’s renaissance has been a wonderful thing to witness. For years now, the actor’s reputation has been based on the assumption that she tries just a little too hard, that insincerity lurks behind her desire to be everything to everyone.
For us true believers, this was always heresy – Hathaway’s total commitment to the task at hand, whether it’s shaving her head or hosting the Oscars, is what makes her Hathaway – so it’s a relief to see the rest of the world come around. Part of this change has been down to her willingness to experiment with high fashion. But part of it, in transpires, is that Anne Hathaway is apparently an Arsenal FC fan now.
