‘The Devil Wears Prada’ Star Anne Hathaway’s “Anaconda” Dance Moment Resurfaces and Fans Are Loving It
A viral throwback video of Anne Hathaway dancing to Nicki Minaj’s hit “Anaconda” is making the rounds on social media again, two years after it first appeared online. Fans have been resharing the clip and reacting to the actress’s unexpected dance moves, turning the moment into a fresh wave of online buzz.
The video originally comes from coverage of Versace’s celebration during Milan Fashion Week, as reported by fashion media outlets including Cosmopolitan. In the clip, Hathaway is seen in the middle of a lively crowd, completely embracing the music as Nicki Minaj’s 2014 track “Anaconda” plays in the background.
What stands out in the video is how relaxed and playful she appears. Hathaway dances confidently in a circle, moving to the beat, dropping low at moments, and clearly enjoying herself as the crowd cheers her on. At one point, she even reacts to the song’s iconic lyric, adding to the fun atmosphere of the moment.
The resurfaced clip shows her wearing a bold black-and-white checkered two-piece outfit made up of a tank top and mini skirt. The pattern moves as she dances, making the outfit feel even more dynamic. She pairs the look with bright red heels and accessories that give the outfit a stylish, high-fashion edge.
At the time the video was first shared, Hathaway was attending Versace’s Milan Fashion Week events, where she had already appeared front row in a different standout look earlier in the evening. That outfit was a striking red leather dress, which she later joked made movement difficult. In a separate clip shared by Women’s Wear Daily, she can be heard saying, “I can’t turn, but I can breathe.”
The contrast between her seated, structured fashion look earlier in the night and her carefree dancing later helped make the moment memorable. Now, two years later, social media users are bringing the clip back into circulation, calling it one of her most fun and unexpected public appearances.
Fans online have been reacting with surprise and excitement, with many saying they had never seen Hathaway in such a loose, party-like setting. The video has been widely shared across platforms, adding to a long list of celebrity throwback moments that regularly resurface and go viral again.
According to the original coverage by fashion outlets at the time, the moment was not staged but spontaneous, happening during a lively after-event atmosphere where guests were enjoying music and celebrating after the runway shows.
Now, with the clip trending again, Hathaway’s dance moment has found a second life online. Fans continue to share it as an example of a rare, unfiltered celebrity moment, where a major Hollywood star is simply caught enjoying the music like everyone else.
