Anne Hathaway was doing a fine job of moving past the scandal of her ex-boyfriend going to prison for fraud, then she had to open her mouth and talk about the relationship again. Apparently where they went wrong wasn't the fraud and deception, oh no, it was about a flower arrangement. The Sun reports:

The Rachel Getting Married beauty realised Raffaello Follieri wasn’t the man for her when he insisted an arrangement of wilting cherry blossom branches be thrown out.

She said of the flowers: “They lasted a month and were beautiful even as they died.

“Raffaello always liked things fancier and perfect and told our maid to throw them out.

“That was when I knew we saw things differently.”

Riiiiiiiiigggghhhht. Forget about the fact that he was defrauding people out of money and falsifying connections with the Vatican, that's all fun and games. But don't fuck with Anne's wilting flowers or she'll put you out on your ass.

If you were a Hollywood actress who recently went through a well-documented breakup with your fiance because he was arrested by the FBI for fraud, it makes sense that you'd be sick and tired of being asked about it during interviews while promoting your movies, right? So it's more than a little surprising to read the details of Anne Hathaway's next project, as reported today by Variety:

Warner Bros. has set Anne Hathaway to star and Burr Steers to direct the romantic comedy “The Fiance.” Studio is eyeing a March production start.

Oh, it gets better...

Hathaway will play a woman who cancels wedding plans and breaks up with her seemingly perfect fiance so she can try to figure out who she really is. Her meddling parents try to patch things up between the pair, making it impossible for her to move on.

You have got to be kidding me. You'd think Hathaway would do any project that would help her move past this summer's scandal, but instead she decides to do a movie called Fiance that involves a shocking breakup in which the guy is "seemingly" perfect? I hope she's prepared to spend another year talking about her relationship with Raffaello Follieri while he's sitting in prison. This is essentially the celebrity news version of punching yourself in the face.

UPDATE: Aforementioned ex-boyfriend just got a 4 1/2 year prison sentence.

Here's Hathaway in London at a recent special screening for her latest film, Rachel Getting Married...

Raffaello Follieri, Anne Hathaway's ex-boyfriend who is currently awaiting his sentence after pleading guilty on fraud charges, made a bold move to appeal to the judge. And by bold we mean epically absurd and idiotic. According to the AP he sent a little something to the judge that he thought might help...

Prosecutors said Monday they were surprised the former boyfriend of actress Anne Hathaway sent a judge a photo of himself and the pope while seeking leniency for cheating investors of millions of dollars by claiming he could buy Catholic Church property on the cheap.

They urged the judge Thursday to impose the more than four years in prison that Raffaello Follieri agreed to when he entered a guilty plea last month rather than the three years his defense lawyers requested in a recent submission of their own.

The prosecutors said Follieri included pictures of the pope and other clergymen even though his claims of Vatican ties were the foundation of his fraud.

"This is surprising because Follieri used these same photographs and connections in order to defraud investors and now seeks to use them in an effort to obtain a reduced sentence," they said.

When it comes to possibly spending more time in prison, this is pretty much the stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard. "Hey, I was totally lying about my Vatican connections before, but since I was arrested the Pope and I are total BFFs. On another note, can I interest you in a Rolex? It's not a knock-off, I promise."

Word is, if the first round of photographs don't help his cause, Follieri has a backup plan...

What's that you say? You don't really care at all about this guy and wish they'd just lock him up already? Okay, here's some sexy photos of Anne Hathaway...
