The Internet Goes To Work - Clip Of Anne Hathaway Stunting On Matt Lauer For Asking Her About Her Upskirt Pictures Goes Re-Viral

EWSince NBC shocked TODAY show viewers Wednesday morning with the firing of Matt Lauer, people have already started looking to his past for evidence of his alleged behavior. As a result, an old interview from 2012 between the former TODAY co-anchor and Anne Hathaway has resurfaced.

“Good morning. Nice to see you. Seen a lot of you lately,” Lauer began.

“Let’s just get it out of the way,” he added. “You had a little wardrobe malfunction the other night. What’s the lesson learned from something like that — other than that you keep smiling, which you always do?”

The internet giveth, the internet taketh away.  It can make you a star and highlight your best moments and bring you into millions upon millions of homes who wouldn’t necessarily see you on TV…and it can be used to endlessly mine every single one of your moments caught on camera in the context of you being an allegedly creepy sexual assaulter and harasser.   Like that time you awkwardly asked Anne Hathaway about her crotch shot upskirts and she stunted all over you.

Matt Lauer wishing for the good old days when his biggest criticism was talking over the opening ceremonies.

Hathaway surprised Lauer when she offered an articulate response that circled the conversation back to Les Miz: “Well, it was obviously an unfortunate incident. It kind of made me sad on two accounts. One was that I was very sad that we live in an age when someone takes a picture of another person in a vulnerable moment and rather than delete it, and do the decent thing, sells it. And I’m sorry that we live in a culture that commodifies sexuality of unwilling participants, which takes us back to Les Mis, because that’s what my character is.”
