Anne Hathaway Posts Hilarious Devil Wears Prada Meme to Get You to Wear a Mask
Anne Hathaway thinks wearing a mask during the world-wide coronavirus pandemic is “groundbreaking.”
On June 17, Twitter user @AJhisnandez shared a hilarious meme remixing one of the most iconic moments from The Devil Wears Prada. In case you needed a quick refresher on the film, Hathaway plays Andrea “Andy” Sachs, a lowly assistant at Runway Magazine. However, after Sachs gets a quick makeover people, begin to notice her talents, skills, and increasingly impeccable fashion. Which is where this new meme comes in. Remember this scene?
Honoring the famous face-off when Andy walks into the office decked out in new Chanel, @AJhisnande shared a new version of the mic-drop moment.
“are you wearing the C—,” the meme begins.
“the CDC recommended face covering because we’re still in the middle of the global COVID-19 pandemic? yeah, i am.”
The tweet quickly gained attention, garnering more than 168,000 retweets, including one special repost on Instagram from Anne Hathaway herself.
“Face Masks. During a pandemic. Groundbreaking,” the actress wrote in the caption.
Though the original tweet and Hathaway’s response are certainly hilarious, they both also serve as an excellent reminder to wear your damn mask when out in public, just as the Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommends.
“The virus can spread between people interacting in close proximity—for example, speaking, coughing, or sneezing—even if those people are not exhibiting symptoms,” the CDC explains. “In light of this new evidence, CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies) especially in areas of significant community-based transmission.”
In need of a mask? Here’s a running list of places you can buy a face mask online right now to keep both you and those around you a little bit safer. Glamour also has you covered if you’re wondering if now’s the right time to get a haircut or go to the nail salon.
Sorry, Chanel isn’t selling a high-fashion mask…yet.
