“In the grand scheme of things, I got to have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Hathaway said. “I met great people, wore beautiful clothes. And I got to put on a show. I don’t see a downside. Anyone who disliked my personality probably disliked my personality before the Oscars.”

It wasn’t just her personality that people may have disliked. Many also wondered if her cohost Franco was under the influence during the broadcast. Franco addressed the accusations on Late Show with David Letterman and said he may have looked stoned on the Academy Awards because “Anne Hathaway is so energetic, …the Tasmanian Devil would look stoned standing next to Anne Hathaway…she has a lot of energy.” 

What was Hathaway’s reaction to being compared to the Tasmanian Devil? “How did I take it? I let James know that a whirling dervish is a more flattering comparison than a Tasmanian Devil. I called him, and we e-mailed a bit,” Hathaway said. Say what you will about her hosting capabilities, at least Hathaway proved she is a good sport!

In the interview, she also talks about her upcoming role as Catwoman in Dark Knght Rises alongside Christian Bale, and her boyfriend, Adam Shulman.
