Anne Hathaway Admits New Baby is Actually a Professional Sports Metaphor
The star confirms her third child is legally required to hit a three-pointer before leaving the delivery room this winter.

Anne Hathaway is back at it again, proving that while most of us treat pregnancy like a nine month snack-marathon, she’s treating it like the final five seconds of the NBA Finals. During a recent chat, the Oscar winner revealed she’s calling her third bundle of joy a 'buzzer-beater,' which is honestly the most dramatic way possible to say she’s getting it done under the wire. Most moms just call it a 'surprise,' but Anne is out here waiting for the whistle and the confetti.
Word on the street is that the nursery isn’t being painted pastel blue or lemon yellow. Instead, Anne has reportedly installed a hardwood floor, a regulation-size hoop, and a Gatorade cooler. If the kid doesn’t come out wearing tiny Jordans and a headband, did the delivery even happen? We all know Anne loves a challenge, but turning a placenta into a playoff game is next-level theater kid energy.
Now, we’re just waiting to see if the baby gets a brand deal with Nike before it even learns how to crawl. While the rest of us are struggling to reach the remote from the sofa, Anne is clearly training for the most adorable slam dunk in Hollywood history. Let’s just hope the kid doesn't get called for a traveling foul during the first diaper change.
