Anne Hathaway, 42, looks half her age at Met Gala after sparking plastic surgery rumours
Anne Hathaway looked half her age at the 2025 Met Gala after recently sparking plastic surgery rumours.
The actress, 42, attended Monday's 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style'-themed night wearing a Carolina Herrera oversized white button-up tucked into a beaded black-and-white-striped structured column skirt.
Hathaway wore her long, dark locks pulled back and up into a beehive style, accentuating her near-flawless face.
Opting for minimal makeup with an emphasis on clean skin, the Devil Wears Prada star once again fanned the flames that she may have undergone a little nip/tuck.
'Anne Hathaway doesn't age man,' one of many X users posted, with another echoing, 'Devil wear[s] Prada part 2. Anne Hathaway you never aged.'
'she doesn't look her age,' someone else argued, while a fourth proclaimed in a post translated from Spanish, 'I need to call a dermatologist to order the Anne Hathaway/Lindsay Lohan package.'
Hathaway's strikingly youthful appearance became a topic of discussion last month after she sat front row at Ralph Lauren's fall 2025 fashion show.
For the runway event, the brunette beauty wore her hair in a tight high ponytail, drawing everyone's eyes to her perfectly taut – and seemingly new – face.
'These plastic surgeons are getting real good,' one of several X users wrote, prompting someone else to agree, 'Money well spent i can't even tell.'
Another fan chimed in, 'Whatever procedure/treatment Anne Hathaway had done to her face has her looking STUNNING. She's always been gorgeous but honey??'
Fans speculated that the Princess Diaries star might have opted for everything from a nose job to a foxy eye and brow lift — in addition to top-of-the-line facials and skincare products, of course.
Hathaway – who's known fame since she was a teenager – admitted to Express UK in 2008 that she was 'no exception' to experiencing the 'pressure' society puts on young women to become 'aware' of their looks 'in relation to other women's looks.'
She lamented at the time, 'You just want to be cookie-cutter beautiful. And sometimes, you think, 'Maybe I could change something about myself to fit that mold.''

The $4 product (and an $1100 option) that will take your ponytail to new heights
This story is part of the June 8 edition of Sunday Life. See all 14 stories. When I mentioned this week's topic to my colleagues, one question flew around the office: what is the 'it' ponytail? Ponytails are more than just a way to pull your hair back from your face. They can be sleek and poker straight, high-rise and bouncy, volume-packed and worn to the side, and low-slung. And, oh, the ribbons! Red-carpet highlights include Nicole Kidman at January's Golden Globes with her high, swinging switch. Meanwhile, on TikTok, the viral 'flip and claw clip' incarnation creates volume with minimal hassle: just twist and clamp. To master the high pony, hair stylist Philip Barwick has this advice. 'It's best to begin by evenly distributing a heat protector and styling mousse through the hair, paying particular attention to the roots out to the mid-lengths and then blow dry,' he says. 'This sets the hair up for easy ponytail styling because a high ponytail looks best when your hair is smooth and frizz-free.' Gather all your hair high at the crown and hold it in place; it needs to be tight, but not so tight that it gives you a headache. Once you've got the ponytail in place, secure it with a strong hair elastic, like Lululemon Uplifting Scrunchies 3 Pack ($29). For a final, smoothing touch, use Kerasilk Flyaway Wand ($29) to tame any strays. To polish this look, hide the hair tie by taking a small section of hair from the ponytail and wrapping it around the base, securing it underneath with a bobby pin. To make sure everything is secure, give your ponytail a light mist of hairspray. For reference, check out Anne Hathaway at the recent Met Gala. For a twist on this version, try wearing it low and to one side. The slicked-back ponytail is also on-trend. Begin with clean, damp hair; if your hair is dry, lightly mist with water to create a smooth base. Use a smoothing cream like MoroccanOil Hydrating Styling Cream ($25) to tame flyaways and boost shine. Work it evenly through your hair from the roots to the ends. With a paddle brush, smooth your hair back. Grab the hair at the nape of your neck and secure tightly with a hair elastic. Next, take a fine-tooth comb and go over the ponytail and your hairline to make it super smooth. Mist with a strong-hold hairspray, like Tresemme Extra Hold Hairspray ($4) to keep hair anchored in place. To take these styles to the next level, we love the addition of a clip-in bow. Go from the high end, with a Prada Velvet Bow Hair Clip ($1110), to low with Morgan & Taylor's Piera Bow ($40).

The old Leederville restaurant that deserves more attention
Duende has been around the block. Launched by local luminary Nic Trimboli, Perth's first Spanish tapas restaurant took over the space on an isthmus between Newcastle Street and Carr Place in Leederville previously occupied by Eminem — the much-lauded Turkish eatery, not the Detroit rapper — waaaaay back in 2003. That's so long ago the current crop of Perth food influencers were still blogging in their nappies or hitting child care for free canapes and bubbly milk when Duende served its first pimientos de padron and patatas bravas. Once considered among Perth's hottest restaurants, this joint has seen some action, and it shows. The decor is dated, menus arrive on clipboards, and the booths need new upholstery. A small fan rattled away on the bar, while daggy dance-pop blared away. Duende is Spanish for 'passion and inspiration'. At first glance, both seemed to be sorely lacking when my wife and I made a long overdue return to this Leederville mainstay for dinner on a Thursday evening. Duende tapas bar, Leederville. Credit: Supplied Duende tapas bar, Leederville Credit: Simon Collins When we walked past the chalkboards and into Duende, we were the only customers. Ay, no! By the time we left at about 8pm, only two other tables were occupied. Double ay, no! If this review achieves one thing, I hope it helps Duende return to the top of the pops. The food is banging — like, Ricky Martin's Livin' La Vida Loca banging — and the wine list has some mic-drop-worthy Spanish drops at prices that don't seem to have moved since Duende opened. Credit for the fantastic, mostly authentic, tapas goes to Indian-born chef Remya Geminiani, who grew up in Modena, Italy. The 'Italian pocket rocket', as she is described on the venue's socials, started a chef's apprenticeship when she was 14 years old, and was ducking flying frying pans in four-star hotel restaurants at 18. Chicken and chorizo paella at Duende tapas bar in Leederville. Credit: Supplied Geminiani trained and worked in kitchens across the Canary Islands, focusing on traditional techniques and Mediterranean flavours for five years before following her heart Down Under in 2016. She worked as head chef at a Melbourne cafe for four years before moving to Margaret River for a stint at Voyager Estate, where she refined her skills and built know-how around fermentation, smoking, and seasonal WA produce. While she only joined Duende in April, Geminiani has already had an impact. She's clearly a gem, and Phil Crocker, who bought the Leederville diner in 2013, did well to recruit her. Service was sharp. A lovely glass of cava and sangria, full to the brim, lobbed on the table within minutes of us plonking down on a table for four. (We had plenty of room, the waiter said.) Later we shared a brilliant bottle of Spanish wine, a Murcia-style blending monastrell and cabernet sauvignon grapes that was on special for $40. What year is it again? The padron peppers at Leederville tapas bar Duende. Credit: Supplied Duende also has signature cocktails with an Iberian twist, plus gin and tonics, spirits, and a decent roster of sherries. I remembered why I never drive home from this place. Speaking of specials, we decided to start with the chorizo de vino tino ($26), a flame-grilled fancy mini-snagger from Northbridge's Torre Butchers in red wine reduction served with charred bread. The chorizo was rich, quite gamey, and delicious. The champinones ($22), or mushrooms marinated in Pedro Ximenez sherry, were served with blue cheese and candied walnuts. A champion dish, you could really taste the PX in the mushies, which were served warm in a ceramic ramekin. A must-have dish. Gambas ajillo ($26), or prawns cooked in garlic, chilli and white wine, at Duende. Credit: Supplied Padron peppers are a staple of tapas for a good reason, and the pimiento de padron ($22) at Duende is excellent. Perhaps they could've been scorched more for that blackened, blistered skin but they were juicy and rested on a fresh herb mayonnaise with snow pea tendrils and oil — and radishes. Chef Geminiani has a thing for radishes. Where other Perth chefs overuse fried shallots, Duende's head chef popped thinly sliced radishes on almost everything bar the dessert, my sangria, and the bill. Clearly, Big Radish has got to her. After those three small plates, we ordered the chicken and chorizo paella ($22) and gambas ajillo ($26) — six delicious, well-charred prawns cooked in garlic, chilli and white wine. Another tasty winner, the small paella had as much chook and chorizo as rice. I like a bit of spice in my rice, so I asked for a hot sauce. Maybe Tabasco, if they had it. The chef whipped up a chilli sauce that was bang-on, and nearly lifted my head off. Luckily, I had some red plonk to calm my palate. The chocolate mousse at Leederville tapas bar Duende. Credit: Supplied The chocolate mousse with vanilla ice-cream and berry coulis was rich and sticky. Blackberries hid inside the smooth choccy, while more PX syrup made this a grown-up dessert. We shared a sherry drier than Hacks comedy diva Deborah Vance to really kick this home, while my wife commandeered the spoon. Daggy decor, bad dance music . . . who cares? The food rocked my socks off. I may never wear shoes again. Duende isn't the only tapas joint in Perth. It's not even the only one in Leederville. But it might be the best. To quote Eminem, the Detroit rapper, not the Turkish eatery, 'guess who's back'. Duende 662 Newcastle Street, Leederville OPEN Wednesday-Sunday, noon-late. CONTACT 9228 0123, BOOKINGS Yes THE VERDICT Hola! Plot a return to Perth's original tapas joint. New head chef Remya Geminiani has it back on track and banging with superb small dishes and great-value wines. Don't drive. 16.5/20
