Actress Anne Hathaway has reportedly cut her hair short and lost weight in preparation for her role as Fantine in the movie version of "Les Miserables."
Reports said Hathaway was on an "extreme crash diet" in order to play the starving prostitute. However, her rep denied those reports, saying "She is losing weight for the part, but not that much."
The actress has been spotted around the U.K. and was still recognized by locals despite the weight loss.
"She kept very quiet and was writing in a notebook," local mom Jo Lord told the U.K.'s Medway Messenger.
"I thought, 'That looks like Anne Hathaway!' but thought she was too skinny."
