“He kept the ring hidden in a shoe somewhere in my house and had talked to my dad, he had talked to my mom, he even talked to my sister. Everyone knew but me!” Jessica said during an interview with chat show host Jimmy Fallon.

SEXY screen siren Anne Hathaway insists her new movie, Love and Other Drugs, “is not a romantic comedy, it’s a funny love story.”
And Hathaway says she’s fed up with the media only focusing on the movie’s many love scenes between herself and costar Jake Gyllenhaal.
“I think the media’s completely blown it out of proportion,” she said.
“I never had any hesitation about doing it because it made sense to me that these two people would behave like that. These are two people who are incredibly attracted to each other, who have a sexual relationship, and we explored the reality of that.”
Hathaway recently admitted that falling love can be one “worst parts of being alive”.
“Most people want love and the journey sometimes is really rocky to find it,” she said. “It’s an exploration and an adventure always. It’s also one of the most wonderful parts of being alive and one of the worst parts of being alive when it doesn’t go well.
Love & Other Drugs is about what it takes to let love in. Love is hard work and it’s scary, and it’s all totally worth it.”
