Summary

This week, as The Devil Wears Prada 2 reigns in theatres, revisit a recent episode from our archives! In this episode, we take on one of our favourites: Anne Hathaway, and with a very special guest: Alex Sujong Laughlin, the co-creator of Normal Gossip and host of pod Try Hard! Speaking of, that's what this episode is all about: how Anne went from America’s Princess™ to “try-hard” punching bag to the girlfriend of an all-time scammer and, finally, a beloved icon. It's a singular trajectory, and one we dig deep into. (Really, this is personal for these three former theatre kids.)
