Anne Hathaway takes tumble on broken heel
Hathaway, 42, had a minor mishap while filming The Devil Wears Prada 2 when she tumbled down a stoop after her heel broke off. Several images and videos capturing the accident have surfaced on social media.
In the images, Hathaway is seen dressed for the scene in a knee-length black pleated skirt and a sheer plaid top layered over a black tank, paired with black silver-studded strappy heels and shades.
Based on the video from the moment, it seems like it was an accident and not part of the script. The actor landed on her bottom, with one leg awkwardly tucked beneath her, as her hair fell over her face.
Hathaway was seen getting back on her feet quickly, throwing her hands in the air, and saying, “I’m fine!” holding up half of a bagel in her hand and smiling.
She was spotted getting up from the fall and hugging the crew members, moving on with the shoot. It seemed that the heel of her shoe broke, causing her to fall.
Several photos captured Hathaway grinning as she leaned on a crew member, still wearing her broken shoe. Another showed her hobbling down the street with their support.
