Anne Hathaway infects Steve Carrell with pink eye? Euuw...
Anne Hathaway had kinda itchy eyes when her sexy character, Agent 99, had a particularly up-close scene with Steve Carrell's klutzy Maxwell Smart in the comedy "Get Smart."
"There was a health scare last year and a certain contact solution -- I won't say the name of it, but it was the one that I use -- that gave you conjunctivitis. I also had a sinus infection at the same time. So I had to go up to Steve, my eye is red, puffy and dripping green -- I'm snotty, and I'm just like 'Come here!' "
Poor Anne told Fox News that she was unaware she had pink eye -- more commonly known as conjunctivitis -- and was forced to ring the film's producer Alex Gartner to warn him when she found out.
"I told Alex, 'You might want to call Steve and let him know I had pink eye and my tears kind of got in my mouth, so he might want to worry about that!' "
And she's ready for a retake, if necessary. "But I'd do the kiss again in a heartbeat," she added.
No word from Steve about taking Anne up on her kind offer. Can't wait to see that scene, though.
Infectious eye goop is so hot.
