  • I really love the article.

  • And you talk in here about, uh...

  • For whatever reason, there... and it's a small group.

  • Trust me, it's a small group, but they're loud.

  • And... and for, 'cause I went through this.

  • And voices that don't like you, and say mean things, really stick with you.

  • For some reason more than voices that say "you're great!"

  • So what... when... when that was going on after the Oscars, which you should have been celebrating.

  • You won an Oscar, and then all of a sudden...

  • Explain to how...

  • 'Cause you accidentally googled something, and then this is what you found.

  • Yeah, um, and...and thank you for all the kind things you said in the asking of that question.

  • Um, yeah, I had...

  • I'd gotten out of the habit of googling myself.

  • Because that's just a bad idea to ever do that.

  • And I... I was trying to come up with a...

  • My friends and I had an idea for Funny Or Die.

  • And we wanted to, like do something on celebrity pregnancy rumors.

  • So we just googled "pregnancy rumors", and then the story came up, and--

  • What was the story?

  • The story, the title of it was "Why does everybody hate Anne Hathaway?"

  • So I think... and you know... I know.

  • It's okay. It's really okay.

  • No, no, no, it has a happy ending.

  • Life continues.

  • Yes, but I know what that feels like.

  • And... and I think when people write things like that, or say things like that, it is cyberbullying.

  • And so how did you deal with all that?

  • Well...

  • I listened at first.

  • And that... I couldn't help it.

  • You know, you, um... and you try to shut it off.

  • And I couldn't, and then I realized why I couldn't.

  • Was I hadn't learned to love myself yet.

  • I hadn't gotten there.

  • And if you don't love yourself, when someone else says horrible things to you, part of you is always gonna believe them.

  • Yep.

  • And I... so then I was like, "Okay, I don't want to believe these people."

  • Mm-hmm.

  • I don't want to agree with them on any level.

  • I want to... and I... I want to figure out who I am.

  • I wanna learn who I am, and I don't wanna feel like I'm... I'm fragile every time I leave the house because I'm so dependent on what other people think about me.

  • Mm-hmm.

  • So I just took a step back.

  • And as Matthew would say--

  • Matthew McConaughey, my co-star in "Interstellar", would say, "I just kept living."

  • And it's been a really cool journey.

  • And I feel like I've arrived in a place where, you know, maybe not every minute of every day, but way more than I used to.

  • I have a tremendous amount of love and compassion for everyone else.

  • And best of all, I have it for myself, which I never enjoyed before.

  • Good, good.

  • Thank you.

  • All right, you know, there's a great phrase that "What you think of me is none of my business."

  • That is...yes.

  • And you have to just, you know.

  • And there's nothing wrong with being fragile. I think it's a beautiful thing.

  • I think I'm fragile. I'm extremely sensitive. I... I cry easily.

  • I'm also a very strong woman and I also believe in myself.

  • But, you know, people get their feelings hurt.

  • But you can have all those things.

  • You can be fragile, you can be sensitive, you can be strong, and , um...

  • But I think it's just, it's hurtful.

  • And people need to know there are other people on the other side of those things.

I really love the article.
