An old speech by Anne Hathaway has found itself back in the spotlight after Elon Musk launched a series of attacks against the actress on X. The resurfaced clip comes from Hathaway's appearance at the Human Rights Campaign National Dinner in September 2018, where she spoke about equality and challenged what she described as myths surrounding sexuality, gender identity and race.
Her remarks soon gained virality again online, prompting Musk to respond with a string of personal insults aimed at both Hathaway and the people behind her speech. The billionaire, who has already been outspoken about Christopher Nolan's new film The Odyssey, used the viral moment to continue criticising the actress while also questioning her ability to think independently.
