While talking with Jimmy Fallon, Anne Hathaway informed the world she prefers to be called by her nickname Annie!
"Call me Annie. Everybody, everybody, call me Annie. Please. When I was 14 years old I did a commercial and I had to get my SAG (Screen Actors Guild) card and they asked me 'what do you want your name to be?'
"And I'm like, well it should be my name - my name is Anne Hathaway... and that seemed like the right choice, but it never occurred to me that for the rest of my life people would call me Anne.
"The only person who ever calls me Anne is my mother, and she only does it when she's really mad at me. Like, really mad. And so every time I step out in public and someone calls my name I think they're going to yell at me. Call me anything but Anne."
In other news, Annie decided to take to Instagram to show off her red carpet dresses she would have worn for film premieres pre-covid.
