‘Anne Hathaway has to be a vampire’: Fans react hilariously to a 2006 vs. 2024 photo showing her aging in reverse

Every few years, Anne Hathaway catches the internet's attention for one thing only: how she just doesn't seem to age. Almost routinely, images will pop up of her from, say, 2006, and her seen ten years later, and it always leaves users online baffled.

It seems to be indigestible for many that she somehow maintains her youthfulness, save for an extra wrinkle or two. The internet has since begun theorizing that she may even be a vampire. I mean, the evidence is undeniable. How DO you maintain your youthful look despite being well into your 40s?

Users react to Anne Hathaway apparently aging in reverse with shock, claiming her being a vampire is the only explanation

Here's what one user pointed out, for example:

"Anne Hathaway has to be a vampire."

The justification for the statement is evident in this photo:

Users online agree that she hasn't aged a day, though many have their own theories about just why that may be:

"I’m good with whatever she is," one user joked.

"Nah she just rich enough to afford them stem cells while you still using dollar store moisturizer that smell like feet and broken dreams," another user spewed.

"If she's looking for new blood, I'm up for eternal damnation," someone else jokingly suggested.

"she's smoking the forbidden zaza," one user theorized.

The comments didn't end there.

"Photo taken 10 mins apart right?" someone jested.

"THERES NO WAY SHES 41," another pointed out.

"that is how you age when you’re unproblematic," a third person chimed in.

"Anne Hathaway is going to be 80 years old, with the same face and just beautiful silver hair. She ages unbelievably," another user quipped.

Users online were visibly baffled over how Anne Hathaway could be in her 40s, with some even joking that this is what you get when you're an "unproblematic queen." Some users even pointed out that she somehow "keeps getting prettier by age," demanding that it even be "studied."

Given that she's only in her 40s, it remains to be seen if the Princess Diaries alum does end up looking like a silver fox even in her 80s, though, at the rate she's aging, it seems highly plausible. As for if it's because she's a vampire or simply just minds her own business... the jury's still out. What do you think it could be?
