"We’re at a time when people feel very confident in assuming what they think is fact, and sometimes what they think is accurate and sometimes it’s not," Anna responded when she was asked if her tutorial for getting a lifted look through a certain braided hairdo was her way to quell speculation.

"The speculation has gotten so loud that you do feel the need to just get your truth out there," the actress continued. "And I’ll probably always wonder, ‘Should I have posted that or not? Should I have just kept going and done the thing that makes me happy and makes me feel more confident on the red carpet?’ But I felt like the conversation was becoming distracting."

“Also, by the way, these are huge medical decisions that people are presuming,” added the Devil Wears Prada star. “I wanted to show that like, no, I didn’t make a huge medical decision. It’s just two braids.”

"By the way, the other thing about all this is, I might still get a facelift someday," confessed Anna.

Elsewhere in the interview, the Interstellar star also reflected on how she dealt with criticism at the start of her career. 

"One of the things about younger me is she was really scared, and I think that fear made me harsh with myself,” she shared. 

“I shudder at the thought that I might have inadvertently been harsh with other people while I was being harsh with myself. I actually get nauseous thinking about it," added Anna.
