David Letterman Put Anne Hathaway On The Spot

David Letterman quizzed Anne Hathaway about the arrest of ex-boyfriend Raffaello Follieri, as the visibly uncomfortable actress called her situation "pretty unusual." "Did you have any hints that there was a problem?" Letterman asked her. "I don't want to go into the specifics," said Hathaway, who appeared on the Late Show Tuesday night to promote her film Rachel Getting Married, "but I will say that you do have to give me credit because as far as relationships crashing and burning goes, c'mon, I did pretty great.

I mean, scorched that earth!" Pressed further by Letterman if Follieri was in jail, Hathaway asked him, "Do you want to know his shoe size, too?" The Devil Wears Prada star revealed that her relationship had ended months before Follieri pleaded guilty to 14 counts of wire fraud, money laundering charges and conspiracy. "We were over for a bit. There were conversations afterwards, but the relationship was absolutely done," she told Letterman. However, the actress, 25, is moving on from her breakup by shedding her old self.


"I quit smoking," Hathaway said. "I quit for a while and then it was a stressful summer and started smoking again. But I just quit." Hathaway says her public breakup was the perfect time to make other changes in her life. "I quit drinking and I also gave up meat and fish and fun," she said. Despite all the heartache, Hathaway assures she is doing fine. "I'm very happy. I'm in a good place."

Oprah Winfred Swallows Them All


In latest Forbe’s list of the highest-earning media personalities (below); Oprah Winfrey already a billionaire, made the fattest bucks for 2007. We should remember that she brought Dr. Phil into the Millionaires Club. Evidently, this shows any person Oprah touches could turn gold: the doc made it to an envy position of # 4 beating the vets like Regis Philbin and others.

What really monumental about Oprah's earnings is that her income alone is more than the sum of 8 others A- listers combined, with exception of Howard Stern.

Although, Tyra Banks has been in denial that she got inspired by Oprah. But she appears to be coming high. We would see if she can accomplish something closer, years from now.

And in Hollywood, Will Smith and Cameron Diaz top the movie stars by taking home $80 and $50 million respectively.

1. Oprah Winfrey $275 million
2. Howard Stern $70 million
3. David Letterman $45 million
4. Dr. Phil McGraw $40 million
