Anne Hathaway Talks Nudity and Fear of Her Catwoman Suit in Allure

Anne Hathaway shows off her dimples on the cover of Allure magazine's July issue, which hits newsstands today. She sported longer locks for the shoot, but actually buzzed off her hair last month for her role as Fantine in Les Misérables. Anne will also pop up on the big screen next month as Catwoman in the third and final installment of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises. In the issue, Anne opened up about both roles and the changes she underwent for them. She spoke about shedding weight to play Fantine, what it took to wear the Catwoman suit, and being OK with nudity. Here's more from Anne Hathaway in Allure:

• On her Catwoman suit: "The Catwoman suit. It was a psychological terrorist. . . . The suit, thoughts of my suit, changing my life so I would fit into that suit . . . It dominated my year. I went into the gym for 10 months and didn't come out."
• On losing weight for her role in Les Misérables: "I'm doing some crazy weight stuff right now. I'm on day six of detox. . . . This diet makes me break out, so I love that. Nothing like living on hummus and radishes and then be all, 'And I got a pimple. Yeah!'"
• On nudity: "I'm as vain as the next girl, but I think it's my job to show people as they live, and nudity is part of life."
