No details were quoted, but in a video, Flaa gushes over the actress&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was pretty shocked,&#8221; Flaa begins. &#8220;She sent me a long email explaining what she was going through right then when she did this interview, and she apologised for&#8230; giving me an awful interview, basically.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was so touching to me,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;It was a very personal note.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Flaa then suggested that the two had liaised further, even discussing what the reporter would share with her followers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We decided that I wouldn&#8217;t share what exactly was in the email,&#8221; she said. &#8220;But I just wanted to share with you guys what she did.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hathaway also invited Flaa to interview her again for her next movie.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_260269\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-260269\" style=\"width: 752px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-260269\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Screenshot-2024-10-09-at-4.41.05-pm.png\" alt=\"anne-hathaway-interview\" width=\"752\" height=\"1108\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-260269\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anne Hathaway and Kjersti Flaa via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@kjerstiflaa\" target=\"_blank\">TikTok\/@Kjersti Flaa<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If Flaa looks familiar, it&#8217;s because she initially made headlines in August for being the victim of another celebrity&#8217;s dire attitude.<\/p>\n<p>During the rollout of <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/it-ends-with-us-drama-explained\/\"><em>It Ends With Us<\/em><\/a>, a film that garnered global controversy for its co-star conflicts and tone-deaf press circuit, Flaa posted an old <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@pagesix\/video\/7403133807165148462\" target=\"_blank\">interview<\/a> with <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/blake-lively-it-ends-with-us-drama-response\/\">Blake Lively<\/a> that she laments almost spurred her to quit her job.<\/p>\n<p>Though it&#8217;s not <em>easy<\/em> on either end of the press\/celebrity interview process, fans were shocked over Lively&#8217;s hostility, dubbing her a &#8216;Mean Girl&#8217;
