HATHAWAY FINALLY COMFORTABLE WITH 'SERIOUS ACTRESS' TAG
Hollywood star ANNE HATHAWAY submerged herself in whimsical tales about princesses and magic because she was terrified of more challenging roles.
The 24-year-old actress, who made her name in THE PRINCESS DIARIES and ELLA ENCHANTED, admits she wasn't ready to become a serious actress early on in her career.
But Hathaway believes she has now proved to herself she can cope with more complex parts, after taking lead roles in BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN and forthcoming JANE AUSTEN biopic BECOMING JANE.
She says, "I rode the one-trick pony for a while, then I figured maybe it was time to come out of hibernation.
"First, I had to work through some s**t in my personal life. I wasn't ready to be a serious actress, with all that entails, because I still had a lot of questions about myself as a human being. But now I'm totally there, and more comfortable than ever just going about and showing what I can do."

At last it would appear that this very tallented young actress has come of age,
hopefully she has now accepted she can act, and will now refrain from from
makeing statements suggesting that she has no confidence in her own abilities.
Perhaps she will think before she speaks, and stop feeding the press,with items
that usually get distorted. It would appear she has plenty in the pipeline,now
we might she what this girl rearly can do, then she may get the recognition she
deserves. Hopefully she will realise she can rely on her own abilities, and
not on her more visual attributes.
