    Anne Hathaway has quit smoking again.

    The 32-year-old actress, who successfully managed to kick the "pretty disgusting" habit after becoming addicted to cigarettes while playing a drug addict in 'Rachel Getting Married' in 2008, "got hooked" on them again last year, but has now given up for the second time.


    She said: "I've quit. I got hooked for a few years. I had a four-year break, and then actually when I was producing 'Song One,' I started smoking again. It's easy to romanticise it when you haven't done it in a while, but it's actually pretty disgusting."

    The 'Interstellar' star went cold turkey to get over her addiction, but doesn't judge people who rely on electronic cigarettes.

    She told The New York Times Magazine: "I don't judge the vape. I know some people who used to be three-pack-a-day smokers, and I'd much prefer them having the vape. I don't want to give them any excuse not to vape."

    The brunette beauty, who recently admitted she hopes to start a family with husband Adam Shulman, 33, is also planning to abstain from drinking alcohol this month.

    Asked about her New Year's resolutions, the Oscar winner said: "I have one, but I don't want to mention it because it's scaring me. And it has nothing to do with pregnancy. But it's not because of a problem. It's just because why not: I'm going to really prioritise my health this year and not drink, at least not in January. I want to take a month off."
