Hathaway’s Physics Obsession
By WENNMonday, February 1, 2010
Hollywood actress ANNE HATHAWAY is a secret geek - she spends her spare time studying physics.
The Devil Wears Prada beauty admits she shuns fashion magazines and instead stocks up on books by legendary scientist Albert Einstein and physics textbooks in a bid to better understand the universe.
She tells Britain’s GQ magazine, “I’m interested in elementary particles. What I like thinking about is how time and space exist in the universe and how we understand it. Any spare time I have, I bury my head in a physics textbook. I’m learning. I’m reading a lot about Einstein. I like theories. I want to understand string theory. I am dying for someone to explain quarks to me!”
