Having taken off her bra to display her breasts in the 2005 American crime drama film Havoc, Anne Hathaway was happy to comply when Jake Gyllenhaal asked to touch her boobs during the filming of Brokeback Mountain.

She portrayed Jack Twist’s (Jake Gyllenhaal) unsuspecting wife Lureen Newsome Twist in the 2005 American Neo-Western romantic drama film.

To make a sex scene in Brokeback Mountain seem more authentic, Jake Gyllenhaal politely asked to touch Anne’s breasts.

“Sometimes you work with actors, and they can be lovely guys, but they have kind of dodgy instincts when it comes to kissing in scenes. They want to try to make it look a bit too real if you know what I mean,” Anne said in an interview with radio station Heart.

“With James, right before we started he turned to me and said ‘closed mouths, no tongue’ and that’s what I normally say to people – so it was a pleasure,” Anne said about her co-star James McAvoy in the 2007 British-Irish biographical romantic drama film Becoming Jane.

“There was this scene in Brokeback Mountain where I get my kit off and I’m in the car with Jake Gyllenhaal and he’s touched my shoulder and he’s touched my stomach and he’s touched around my back,” she said about filming Brokeback Mountain.

“Everywhere except for, you know, ‘the girls’. “So the director yells cut and we go behind a screen and I’m putting my clothes back on and Jake comes up to me and says: ‘Annie, the thing is, the scene, in real life I would… and the director’s not yelling cut, so… can I?’ “I just turned to him and said: ‘It’s okay Jake, yes, you can touch my boobs.’”

In December 2012, Anne Hathaway showed off her feet in statement-making Tom Ford Spring 2013 RTW sandal boots. Later the same month, the American actress showed us more high heels from her shoe collection.

The following day, Anne hit the red carpet along with “Les Miserables” co-stars Eddie Redmayne and Hugh Jackman.

The event was held to honor Hugh Jackman and his achievements and raise funds for the museum’s programs, exhibitions, and educational activities.
