LOVE Anne Hathaway’s Harper’s Bazaar August cover! She is so elegant. Actually, I love all these shots. Here are some excerpts from her interview:

On hosting ‘The Oscars’ and co-host James Franco’s comments (when he said the Tasmanian devil would look stoned next to her):

“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. In the grand scheme of things, I got to have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. 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.”

On fashion:

“[she] feels like the luckiest girl in the world when I get to wear all these glamorous clothes,” but away from the red carpet, she is decidedly more moderate: “I’ve become a lot more specific about what I love and why I’m doing it,”

On her relationship with Adam Shulman:

“So far, it’s worked out great. Which has its wonderful side, of course,” she adds with a half shrug, “but also it was exhausting, and sometimes it would freak me out. Mellow doesn’t always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life.”

Here, here! You can read Anne’s entire interview, and see the entire photoshoot, in the August issue of Harper’s Bazaar, which hits newsstands on July 12.
