SCREEN siren Anne Hathaway was flanked by men in drag as she received her Hasty Pudding Woman of the Year Award from Harvard University Thursday.
The Devil Wears Prada actress braved the rain as she rode through a parade in her honor in the back of a convertible red car and clutching a giant bouquet of flowers.
She was then brought on stage at Harvard’s New College theatre for a ceremonial roast from the prestigious American university’s Hasty Pudding Theatrical group — America’s oldest undergraduate drama club — where they playfully mocked her.
But the 27-year-old beauty was happy to play along and showed off her wrestling skills, sword-wielding and singing abilities.
Anne finished the ceremony with an acceptance speech composed in rhymed couplets, which included, “I feel warm and gooey inside/My rump is swollen with pride.”
She also joked she expects any future children she has to have no problem getting into Harvard when they apply.
The annual award from the prestigious Massachusetts college is given to entertainers who have made a “lasting and impressive contribution to the world of entertainment”.
Justin Timberlake will receive the men’s honour next month.
