As the old adage goes, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.
That’s probably what Anne Hathaway was thinking when 34-year-old James Franco rehashed their beef.
The Spring Breakers star appeared on The Howard Stern Show recently and had a convo with the shock jock about general distaste for Anne, going so far as to acknowledge Anne wouldn’t be too happy about what he had to say…
“Anne can’t believe James has openly discussed the past and how they aren’t really on talking terms anymore,” a source told Radar Online. “She thinks he did it purely to drum up publicity for Spring Breakers. But, as far as she’s concerned, James pulled an unprofessional move by talking about her during the interview with Howard Stern.”

Stern provoked the comments, saying he understands why everyone hates her.
From the beginning of the interview, Franco told Stern he knew Anne wouldn’t be pleased, but continued anyway.
“I’m happy to revisit this, but you’re going to have to take the lead. If you’re going to talk about it, you’re going to have to give your opinions…She does not want me talking about this, but okay,” Franco began.
“Everyone sort of hates Anne Hathaway, and I’ve explained that I do too and I don’t even know why sometimes,” Stern followed.

“She’s just so affected actress-y that even when she wins an award she’s out of breath, and then she has the standard joe that sounds like it’s written. And it all seems so scripted and acted,” Stern explained. “She comes off like the goody two-shoes actress and it’s just fun to sort of hate her. Hate is a strong word…but dislike her, even though she is a great actress. Is that accurate?”
Franco responded: “I’m not an expert on — I guess they’re called ‘Hatha-haters’– but I think that’s what maybe triggers it.”
Their beef goes all the way back to 2011, when Franco appeared on The Late Show and compared Anne to a “Tasmanian devil.”
According to James there is no beef. “Anne and I made up, by the way. Let’s just get that on the record,” he told Stern.
However, it really doesn’t seem that way.
Ouch, James! Can’t we all just get along?
