Anne Hathaway' Popularity in getting Best Actress Oscar...

Anne Hathaway oscarNow everyone, including you, is waiting to see if Murphy’s fate will befall Anne Hathaway. She is nominated this year for best actress for “ Rachel Getting Married.”

Anne Hathaway's latest film, "Bride Wars" has made over $50 million but only received a 12% fresh rating on RottenTomatoes.com. As w/ "Norbit," "Bride Wars" seems like a step back for her, who has proved Anne Hathaway deserves a lot better than these fluffy comedies.

Anne Hathaway Popularity in getting Best Actress oscar, how? Ever since Hathaway' star-making performance in "The Princess Diaries" (2001), Hathaway's posed a serious challenge to her childhood idol Julia Roberts for the title of "America's Sweetheart."

Interestingly, both women Anne Hathaway and Julia Roberts got their star-making roles in charming Garry Marshall movies ("Pretty Woman" and "The Princess Diaries"), both of them have big, infectious smiles, both of them come across as classy but fun, and both have loyal fan bases composed primarily of women (of all ages).

And though "Rachel Getting Married" didn't take in loads of money, none of this year's other best actress nominees - w/ the exception of Angelina Jolie ("Changeling") - can match Anne Hathaway otherwise impressive batting average at the box office.

Wait and see
