Anne Hathaway has a phobia of other people touching her panties.

The 'Becoming Jane' actress hates hotel staff unpacking her suitcases, because she can't bear the thought of strangers rummaging through her underwear.

She said: "The weirdest thing that I still can't get used to, and I refuse to accept, is when people try to unpack my bags for me. It just freaks me out, I don't want people touching my underwear."

Hathaway isn't the only actress to admit to a strange phobia.

Teri Hatcher recently confessed she won't go to the gym because she is paranoid about catching other people's germs.

The 'Desperate Housewives' star, famed for her super-slim figure, prefers to exercise outside to avoid other sweaty fitness fanatics and potentially infectious microbes.

She said: "I can't stand going to the gym. It's too formatted and it freaks me out with all the germs. I hike outside. I lift weights in my house, just not at a gym."
