the two extraneous commas in the clause after the ellipsis.

I really pay attention to punctuation.

and once an English teacher, always an English teacher. I wonder if the commas are Hathaway's or whoever wrote the quote?

Not only is she beautiful and talented - she is awesome in every way.

First fell in love with her in "The Princess Diaries" and "Ella Enchanted". And THEN she did "The Devil Wears Prada", one of my favorite movies. I never knew she had a gay brother, and her whole family left the Catholic church to show support for him. Wow!

Such a simple, true, and sincere point she's made. I really feel nothing but disgust for the people who would deny happiness and security to others out of some inability to reconcile their own insecurities.
Love Ms. Hathaway.
