Anne Hathaway recently revealed a disturbing audition experience from her early career, where she was required to kiss 10 male actors for a chemistry test. This incident highlights the outdated and problematic practice of chemistry tests, which are now recognized as potentially damaging.

Hathaway’s experience serves as a reminder of the evolving standards in the entertainment industry, with a shift towards more respectful and professional casting practices.
