She doesn't really bother me that much. It always weirded me out that she was with that criminal for years. I can't get over that - she must have known something was up. But I liked Devil Wears Prada and I liked her in that Robert DeNiro as an intern movie.

She’s like Lea Michele.
What are the characteristics of an annoying theater kid?
There's just always something new with her. Like how she JUST announced that her real name has been Annie all along. She's been through so many phases already ... there's always a new way to grab a little attention.

She wants to be Julia Roberts but just isn't. Accept your fate as a Cate Blanchett and all will be forgotten, Ann---ie!!

She is a striver- people hate strivers.
In Australia/NZ there's the concept of "Tall Poppy Syndrome" and in Ireland it's called "having notions". They support their citizens working hard at sport/academics/the arts/work until they do well, then they turn around and try and knock them down to size.
One good thing about America was that it was more tolerant of people who worked hard and achieved. I guess the internet exposed America's own tall poppy syndrome against "strivers".
"Striver" isn't an American term.

Agree with the annoying theater kid personality, however Lea Michelle is wacko. She’ll never have the success Anne Hathaway has achieved.
Lea Michele is a mean person who seemingly creates enemies wherever she goes. Anne seems nice but perhaps a little insecure. Being mean catches up to you eventually when you are a woman. Look at Ellen!

So I actually think that Anne Hathaway is a tremendous actress and I enjoy her movies. But I think that what people find annoying about her is her constantly positioning herself as some kind of underdog. She is a conventionally attractive, thin, white woman who grew up in Milburn/Short Hills, NJ (I’m from nearby...it is very nice) with a father who was a big law partner. She campaigned relentlessly during award season for Les Mis and then every time she won she got up there and did a faux surprised “who me?” with widened eyes. Just...why? I don’t get it.

+1 I just assume most famous people are a$$es and am pleasantly surprised when I hear that some aren't. They don't owe me anything. They can be "nice" if they want or not. I'm probably going to assume the "cool" ones have been trained to be this way as part of their brand.

Because she comes across fake and disingenuous all the time. She never seems real and people see through that. She’s trying too hard. She’s “acting” all the time. Signs of an anxious and insecure person- OR signs of a narcissist, they act like that too.

I admit I was one of those Anne H haters until I actually thought about it and there was no real reason for me to not like her. The media affects our perceptions more than we may think.
I think Jamila brings up good points, but no that's not what's happening with Anne Hathaway. She just doesn't come across well. Imagine James Franco on stage, presenting with Amanda Seyfried or Emma Stone. Works fine. but him up there with Anne Hathaway, it's off, it's awkward. Because he seems like the kind of person you can have a conversation with and relate to and like he has a sense of humor. She really, really does not seem that way. If I went to interact with her for some reason, right before speaking to her, my mind would be saying: I'm about to have a fake conversation. This person is not going to care about what I feel or think.
Yeah a man who preys on women hosting with a feminist would be awkward

Yes! I thought it was just me? I don’t dislike her, but find her so repulsive I can’t watch the movies I think I’d otherwise enjoy. It’s this visceral reaction. Like she’s a reptile
