 Anne Hathaway found b@ring it all easier than b@ring her soul

Anne Hathaway first became famous as a family-friendly on-screen princess, whether in Disney's The Princess Diaries or Ella Enchanted. When she started taking on edgier roles in the likes of Havoc and Brokeback Mountain, these films called for scenes of more of an adult nature. 

The 2010 romantic comedy, Love and Other Drugs, for example, shows every aspect of an adult relationship. So, when Hathaway had to film romantic scenes with co-star Jake Gyllenhaal, she didn't consider it a big deal, telling MTV News, "It's really such a small part of the film."

While Hathaway would later win an Oscar for her heartbreaking performance and rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream" in 2012's Les Misérables, she previously told Vogue (via People) of her and Gyllenhaal's characters, "These are people who have no trouble taking their clothes off ... But they're terrified of exposing their vulnerability — of becoming emotionally n@ked." Of course, that was the ultimate goal and challenge for the actors in question. Telling Reuters (via The Hollywood Reporter) that playing a se*ually fearless character that was "way out of [her] comfort zone," the actress explained of the love scenes, "All that overt se*uality is just not me ... It's less of n*dity and more of intim@cy."
