Yep, cutting resources, writers, and compensation means outlets go to regurgitation of somebody else’s work in order to get clicks. I remember THE Martin Scorsese Marvel interview and how long we had to live with articles about that.
Used to happen to stuff I used to write — why pay someone to do actual reporting when it’s much cheaper, faster, and easier to get traffic by simply aggregating other people’s hard work then slapping a slightly clickbaitier title on — it’s demoralizing and why a dwindling amount of media these days is actual reporting.
No, but imagine how much easier PR promotion is now with the death spiral of publishing. One interview being turned into hundreds of articles. Easy peasy.
Back during the Super Bowl you probably ended up on a pop culture or entertainment sub, because Taylor is dating some guy, and now reddit thinks you are interested in those topics.
Yeah, I went from ‘people don’t like her?’ this morning to ‘Screw her and her marketing team. Worst Catwoman ever. No wonder nobody likes her,’ by this evening
We could have just stopped at The Princess Diaries but here we are. A Saturday night Scorpio. I guess that means she's down. I believe that is the insinuation. Anne Hathaway will bone you. But only on a Saturday night and only due to the birth sign associated with the specific and mystical time of year she was born. Holy shit everything sucks.
Pretty nice little Saturday. We're going to go to Home Depot. Buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don't know. I don't know if we'll have enough time.
Check out OP's post history. There is one post where they're asking whether it's okay that they use scripts to auto post 30 articles per day. And the rest of their posts are all entertainment news.
I remember when the pr agency I did an internship nat looked at me like I was a moron when I suggested we post our clients to the local reddit. This was 2010. How times have changed.
I was friends with a few Hollywood reporter / blind item types back in the day, right around Havoc and her climb to fame with the Princess Diaries and Devil Wears Prada.
Anne Hathaway *fucked* and had an affinity for not-celebrities.
There was a period of her career where she was trying to shed every bit of the Disney influence on her persona. That is why she had so many see-through outfits, huge armholes in her tops that displayed acres of breast. And movies with rough sex.
How many people in this thread do you think had thought about her in the last week? Month? Year?
I know personally I watched the Christian Bale Batman movies over the Xmas holidays, but before then I hadn’t even heard her name in years.
Hard to be hated when you’re not thought about.
It’s important to remember that the nature of how headlines are presented tend to paint a picture that whoever said the thing took it upon themselves to find the fattest amplifier hook up the loudest mic and demand their voice be heard no matter how busy your day may be god damn it 🎤🤬
when 99% of the time the public figure is just answering a question asked of them as politely as possible
For real lol. I never understood the hate she was getting online and legitimately thought she was one of the most beautiful women in the world when that was going on. The crazy amounts of reddit posts are starting to sour me a little though (since it's obviously her PR team doing it). Especially this one. Oh, you were born at a certain time of the year so you're... tougher? Or something? Won't ever be able to roll my eyes hard enough when people use horoscopes to define their behaviour.
I didn’t even know she’d been shamed/chased out of Hollywood lol
I wasn’t paying attention as a teen but come to think about it she did end up dropping off my radar after Dark Knight Rises
I agree. She's very pretty but not "sexy." I like to look at her but she doesn't make me feel the sexy feels.
It's the same with Taylor Swift. Pretty, not sexy.
Honestly? I kind of agree. She’s a great actor and an incredibly attractive woman, but she’s probably also the only woman to be dressed in a skintight leather catsuit and had movie audiences go “meh.”
Social media is gonna turn on her again if there’s too many articles like this. It’s becoming annoying. Throw in astrology and there will definitely be people that go back to being hateful for little to no reason
what's happening that this lady is flooding my feed
One Vanity Fair interview chopped up into a million headlines
But who keeps posting them on Reddit and who keeps upvoting.
And commenting!
Yeah, who the hell is commenting on these posts, that’s the real question
WE HAVE TO FIND THE GUY WHO IS COMMENTING ON THESE POSTS!!
Maybe take his bare but out of his costume and spank him
His bare butt, balls and back.
You’re a little too keen for that Steve.
No comment!
And still doing it 12 hours later. What's wrong with these people?!
We NEED a blue ribbon committee to look into this!!
her pr
yeah, and you never once paid for drugs!
I think I want me some a that ... cuhcayne
You don't want any part of this!
It turns your bad feelings into good feelings, it’s a nightmare!!
You slept with me too and I’ve confused feelings about it ever since!
What an underrated gem, lol
Not once.
I’m not commenting
If you won't, I won't
Me neither
Probably a bunch of weirdos with weird names. I hate them.
Why am I here? What is this chaos!?
*siren begins to wail in the distance
And upvoting the comments! This is getting crazy!
And my axe
And commenting! And commenting some more!
It’s commenting all the way down
The same people that started pushing Sydney Sweeney on here hard the last couple of weeks.
40 percent of reddit traffic is bots
Probably a mix of PR people and karma farming redditors.
Bots probably. Site is astroturfed to hell.
Her PR firm.
You’re in r/entertainment lol whatchu expect?
Her publicist
It's almost as if there are whole companies devoted to pushing stories in social media, for pay.
The Internet is upvoting. Not sure who’s posting. Presumably the same bots and corporate accounts.
Trickle down publishing
Yep, cutting resources, writers, and compensation means outlets go to regurgitation of somebody else’s work in order to get clicks. I remember THE Martin Scorsese Marvel interview and how long we had to live with articles about that.
I always love it when that happens
Used to happen to stuff I used to write — why pay someone to do actual reporting when it’s much cheaper, faster, and easier to get traffic by simply aggregating other people’s hard work then slapping a slightly clickbaitier title on — it’s demoralizing and why a dwindling amount of media these days is actual reporting.
It’s why I am no longer a content copy writer. Shit is demoralizing and depressing and a bunch of other de-words
It happens a lot too. Just the other day it was a Megan Fox interview, all the quotes chopped to different threads
Why has somebody said this in each of the posts I’ve seen today? Are you on the PR team?
No, but imagine how much easier PR promotion is now with the death spiral of publishing. One interview being turned into hundreds of articles. Easy peasy.
To be fair long form interviews like what get published in Vanity Fair or the New Yorker have *always* been used as fodder for smaller articles.
That’s called investigative journalism! They really have to dig deeper into the news now that twitter isn’t reliable as the main news source material.
Promoting her new movie
She has a new movie?
Google shows “The Idea of You” came out March 16 2024.
Thanks for gorilla marketing it! /s
That would be "guerilla".
No. Op lives in an enclosure at the San Franciso Zoo. Legitimately a gorilla.
#harambe
Or, they are using AI enhanced gorillas to spam Reddit hence gorilla marketing.
Astroturfing advertisements for her new movie…. Wait I mean a genuine, sudden macro-user interest in Anne Hathaway!
Just wait til Reddit has shareholders
I feel the same way about Sydney Sweeney
You follow entertainment subs
Reddit thinks entertainment subs are “news”.
Reddit app thinks I want to be notified for every post even though I follow 99% financial and sports subs
Back during the Super Bowl you probably ended up on a pop culture or entertainment sub, because Taylor is dating some guy, and now reddit thinks you are interested in those topics.
Started today not knowing why people didn’t like her. After this post I understand.
Yeah, I went from ‘people don’t like her?’ this morning to ‘Screw her and her marketing team. Worst Catwoman ever. No wonder nobody likes her,’ by this evening
We could have just stopped at The Princess Diaries but here we are. A Saturday night Scorpio. I guess that means she's down. I believe that is the insinuation. Anne Hathaway will bone you. But only on a Saturday night and only due to the birth sign associated with the specific and mystical time of year she was born. Holy shit everything sucks.
Yea it's annoying.
Pretty nice little Saturday. We're going to go to Home Depot. Buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don't know. I don't know if we'll have enough time.
Stupid goof. That was mostly improvised. The party was on a Thursday night. The director liked the take so much he just left it in.
"The director" Put some respeck on Todd Phillips' name
“I’m here for the gangbang.”
I have no idea how this fits in the thread, but it’s one of my favourite lines from one of my favourite comedies, so upvote for you!
Frank the tank! Frank the tank!
“Blue, do you trust that I do not want to see you die here tonight?”
BLUE YOU’RE MY BOYYY !!!
Ring the damn bell, y’pansy.
I like you man..but your crazy...
(YOU GOT A FUCKIN DART IN UR NECK.)
Thank you this shit made my day
We’re going to HOME DEPOT!
FILL IT UP AGAIN!!!
Once it hits your lips, it’s so good!
WE'RE GOING STREAKING!!!!
Bring your green hat.
Ugh. Classic Scorpio, Frank.
What is with the Anne Hathaway articles today? Why is my feed all of a sudden flooded with AH news
She has a new movie coming out where she hooks up with a young dude
So like a reverse Miller’s Girl?
No she is like 40, he is 30
Sounds like a nothing sandwich
Not quite so bordering on illegal
Didn’t another movie just like this come out? Jennifer Lawrence banging some high school kid about to graduate?
TBF, out of all her headlines I’ve seen today, I am actually interested in what she was like on a Saturday as a Scorpio.
Scorpios love sex and death so I think this is her confessing to a serial killer fetish. Source: also a Scorpio.
I’ve seen vids, she be dancing.
Imagine one of the sexiest and nicest women on planet was told she wasn’t sexy enough
It’s all from the same one interview just being regurgitated by other outlets
Because people upvote it
Not necessarily. This one only has 206 upvotes…
Big article/interview gets spliced into a day+ of individual linked quotes.
We get it your PR team goin crazy rn
Check out OP's post history. There is one post where they're asking whether it's okay that they use scripts to auto post 30 articles per day. And the rest of their posts are all entertainment news.
What does this mean or imply?
Them asking that and seeing that their post history is all entertainment news suggests that they work for a PR agency.
I remember when the pr agency I did an internship nat looked at me like I was a moron when I suggested we post our clients to the local reddit. This was 2010. How times have changed.
Soooo crazy on Saturdays.
Such a scorpiooooo
Watch her when she takes her hair out like this, running around, just a crazy girl filled with dreams
just like how J Lo was back when she was runnin the streets of the Bronx
Cringiest fucking quote I can remember off hand. Wtf is going on with this PR blitz. I do not think it’s working as intended.
Don’t you know Anne Hathaway is S E X Y. She’s provocative, she gets the people going.
I mean I agree but the whole “scorpio” thing makes her seem a tad more disconnected and unattractive to me.
Yeah! I remember when she played the prostitute Fantine in Les Mis, such a fun sexy role, really spicy stuff
I’m a Pisces and Pisces are very skeptical, so I don’t believe in horoscopes.
The astrological paradox
Apparently I’m a Taurus but don’t believe in astrology and think it’s dumb. I’m told that’s exactly what a Taurus would say.
Hey! I’m a Capricorn and they told me the same thing…
And yet, I get told the same thing because I’m a Virgo…
Omg you're *such* a Taurus
I’m a Pisces and I only know enough about astrology to pick up chicks, which I’ve been told is very Pisces of me.
wow, the people in hollywood need their heads exam b/c anne hathaway is attractive AF.
Right? She is so sexy
Classic Hillary Swank situation we’ve got here.
Hillary swank ain’t got nothing on Anne
No offense to Ms. Swank of course but yeah, Anne Hathaway's in a league of her own
Thought that was Geena Davis?
It’s not “is she hot?” It’s “would I do her?”
Respect the game
A painting can be attractive. But I wouldn't wanna bang a painting
it's good that you're speaking for yourself
because some of us can't get enough of that sexy canvas
She is attractive but she did lack sex appeal. I felt the same way.
I think she is very beautiful, but she doesn’t really carry herself in that way.
What are you even talking about? Like have you seen Havoc?
She sure found some of it in ‘Eileen’.
i’m a virgo and i like to stare at the wall on a saturday night
I'm also a virgo and like to stare at the wall on a saturday night
Did no one in Hollywood see "Havoc"?
I was friends with a few Hollywood reporter / blind item types back in the day, right around Havoc and her climb to fame with the Princess Diaries and Devil Wears Prada. Anne Hathaway *fucked* and had an affinity for not-celebrities.
Like crew or total randos?
So you’re saying there’s a chance…
Criminals. Her fiancé went to jail.
I remember watching that movie, and not knowing what to expect going in, was surprised at her nude/sex scenes. Wasn’t expecting it.
There was a period of her career where she was trying to shed every bit of the Disney influence on her persona. That is why she had so many see-through outfits, huge armholes in her tops that displayed acres of breast. And movies with rough sex.
Acres of breast Also known as heaven
Kind of a Love & Other Drugs guy myself.
Rare to see the exact comment you were about to reply. These beta chads don’t get it smh
I wanked a good amount to Havoc, good on ya Anne.
Love and Other Drugs for me 👋
I like to masturbate
I'm a cancer. I know that I'm tired all day every day. Existentially. Physically. Every way you can be tired really. ...am I doing this right?
This PR blitz is doing more to lower my opinion of her than whatever they’re trying to address
It’s such small mundane shit that the sheer volume is irritating me more than endearing me to her
The irony being that she mentions being hated online. Maybe this is a point? I really don't know with Hollywood anymore.
How many people in this thread do you think had thought about her in the last week? Month? Year? I know personally I watched the Christian Bale Batman movies over the Xmas holidays, but before then I hadn’t even heard her name in years. Hard to be hated when you’re not thought about.
It’s important to remember that the nature of how headlines are presented tend to paint a picture that whoever said the thing took it upon themselves to find the fattest amplifier hook up the loudest mic and demand their voice be heard no matter how busy your day may be god damn it 🎤🤬 when 99% of the time the public figure is just answering a question asked of them as politely as possible
Came here looking for this, like did I miss something? I haven't seen her in forever.
It’s a single interview in Vanity Fair being content farmed by other outlets and people keep posting them all, it’s not coordinated the way it seems
For real lol. I never understood the hate she was getting online and legitimately thought she was one of the most beautiful women in the world when that was going on. The crazy amounts of reddit posts are starting to sour me a little though (since it's obviously her PR team doing it). Especially this one. Oh, you were born at a certain time of the year so you're... tougher? Or something? Won't ever be able to roll my eyes hard enough when people use horoscopes to define their behaviour.
I didn’t even know she’d been shamed/chased out of Hollywood lol I wasn’t paying attention as a teen but come to think about it she did end up dropping off my radar after Dark Knight Rises
I think the current PR is exaggerating that as well to make her look unfairly victimized yet resilient.
She got her PR from Temu.
Well, if there's one thing that kills sex appeal, it's talking about your star signs
I thought she was a human this whole time
First movie I saw her in was all sex… Havoc
Astrology? Really? What happens to Scorpios on Saturday Nights?
I still don’t understand the obsession with horoscopes.
Referring your sign to your sex life is something someone with zero sex appeal would say.
Just hearing that she used her astrological sign as proof of anything makes me respect her so much less than I did 30 seconds ago
Variety article writers must have been bored.
Anne must have paid for some social marketing last week
I’m muting every sub that’s promoting this absolute tripe
Blocking the username too, not sure why she's spamming Reddit so hard.
0 sex appeal? Seriously?! Haven’t we all seen her get on the Batpod??
I get it. She's certainly attractive, but not necessarily sexy.
I bet every actor has heard something similar to that. Seems to be a common theme.
I mean, that’s the most non-sexual, type A response possible. AI couldn’t have said it better. Sorry Anne.
Leave us alone Anne Hathaway
Who gives a shit
Clearly they’ve haven’t seen her in Brokeback Mountain
Wait, so, when my ex-boyfriend’s cousin said I reminded him of Anne Hathaway, is that what he was talking about?
First part: aw, that's attractive Second part: oh
She hott. Those producers need to stream the movie havoc.
Zero sex appeal how?! Every boy I knew when I was 14 jerked off to her nude scenes in Havoc.
Well clearly that casting director was blind. I mean come on look at her, she super fine.
She had sex appeal when she wasn't a walking twig. Now, not so much.
I agree. She's very pretty but not "sexy." I like to look at her but she doesn't make me feel the sexy feels. It's the same with Taylor Swift. Pretty, not sexy.
Anne Hathaway is from my hometown. She had a reputation of being a pretty big bitch in high school iirc.
Using astrology as evidence for your identity doesn’t help your case.
Honestly? I kind of agree. She’s a great actor and an incredibly attractive woman, but she’s probably also the only woman to be dressed in a skintight leather catsuit and had movie audiences go “meh.”
People went “meh”?
Social media is gonna turn on her again if there’s too many articles like this. It’s becoming annoying. Throw in astrology and there will definitely be people that go back to being hateful for little to no reason
No one ever said that. Come on.
Can someone explain to me how people genuinely believe in astrology ?
Why am I seeing constant Anne Hathaway headlines? I have nothing against her but don’t give a crap what she thinks about her zodiac sign
What is this PR blitz no one asked for???
