Anne Hathaway is amazed by reports she’s shot to the top of “geek chic” polls after wearing her spectacles to a film premiere.

The move has turned her into a fashion sensation overnight – and she can’t believe she’s suddenly a pin-up for nerds.
She says, “Nothing else is going on in this world at the moment…? It was purely practical.”
