London, Feb 1 (IANS) No fashion magazines for Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway, rather she spends free time studying books on physics to enhance her knowledge on the universe.

The 'Devil Wears Prada' star admits she shuns fashion magazines and instead stocks up on books by scientist Albert Einstein and physics textbooks in a bid to better understand the universe, reported contactmusic.com.

'I'm interested in elementary particles. What I like thinking about is how time and space exist in the universe and how we understand it. Any spare time I have, I bury my head in a physics textbook. I'm reading a lot about Einstein. I like theories and I want to understand string theory,' she said.
