In a candid and playful appearance on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live, Anne Hathaway, the 34-year-old Oscar-winning actress, engaged in a lighthearted game of Plead The Fifth with host Andy Cohen. The occasion, falling on the 4/20 date synonymous with marijuana culture, added an extra layer of humor and spontaneity to the late-night talk show.
Andy Cohen, known for his wit and knack for getting celebrities to spill juicy details, kicked off the game by referencing a 2013 photo of Anne Hathaway holding what appeared to be a ‘massive blunt.’ With a mischievous grin, Cohen asked Hathaway to rank her ‘stoner’ level on a scale of 1 to 10.
“I’m not a little one,” Hathaway replied with confidence, playfully hinting at her more substantial experience with recreational marijuana.
The actress, also a parent, clarified that she doesn’t have a medical marijuana card and added, “I don’t feel like getting arrested.” The exchange provided a humorous insight into Hathaway’s openness and down-to-earth attitude, endearing her to the audience.
The game continued with Cohen asking Hathaway about her Oscar win in 2012 for Best Supporting Actress. He inquired about the person she was most excited to beat among fellow nominees Amy Adams, Sally Field, Helen Hunt, and Jacki Weaver. Hathaway’s response showcased her humility as she expressed that she would have been happier to see any of them deliver an acceptance speech instead of her.
The final question from Cohen aimed at Hathaway’s least favorite Barbra Streisand movie, to which Hathaway diplomatically responded, “I haven’t seen one that I didn’t absolutely love.” The tactful answer demonstrated Hathaway’s grace and appreciation for her industry colleagues.
The episode also featured singer Sheryl Crow, who joined Hathaway in the Bravo clubhouse. The two celebrities shared light moments with Cohen, with Sheryl dodging questions about smoking marijuana with Willie Nelson and reminiscing about jamming with the late Prince.
In the midst of the playful banter, Hathaway also took the opportunity to promote her new sci-fi comedy, Colossal, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and was released in April.
The episode concluded with a caller asking about the possibility of Princess Diaries 3. Hathaway expressed hope and confirmed ongoing talks, emphasizing that discussions were still in progress.
