Anne Hathaway’s boyfriend sounds like a real winner.  Earlier this week Raffaello Follieri was arrested on money laundering, wire fraud, and basically living a six-figure lifestyle on everybody elses dime.

TMZ has also uncovered another scam, by which his foundation claims to hand out discount drug cards, which, of course, was discovered never took place.  Raffaello has also been admitted to a hospital today for a severe sinus infection.

This dude might go to jail for the rest of his life and he’s already whining about a sinus infection.  Wait until a dude leaves his DNA inside his rectum.

Below are photos of Anne Hathaway in the July issue of In Style Magazine.

Instead of partying in Capri, Anne Hathaway’s ex-boyfriend Raffaello Follieri may spend his 30th birthday Friday behind bars on charges of wire fraud, conspiracy and money laundering.

Follieri remains in New York’s Metropolitan Correctional Center on $21 million bail. “We’re working on putting the bail together,” says his attorney Flora Edwards.
The Italian businessman reportedly had a big birthday bash planned on the jet-set island of Capri. Even if he does post bail, he will be confined to his home, with an electronic monitoring device and only be able to leave for medical, legal or religious reasons.

Meanwhile, Hathaway, 25, has been thousands of miles away: She promoted Get Smart in Mexico City on Wednesday and in Australia earlier in the week. She split with Follieri earlier this month, before his arrest Tuesday on charges he defrauded investors with a scheme to flip properties owned by the Roman Catholic Church.

Follieri’s next court date is a preliminary hearing scheduled for July 9, when a grand jury’s decision whether to indict him will be announced. A jury trial could be tough on Follieri, says legal expert David Berg, author of The Trial Lawyer: What it Takes to Win. “He has really taken advantage of a lot of people. To do it with the cloak of religion is despicable. I think a jury would be very hard on him.”

Says Berg: “The best advice one would give this man is to start returning the money as soon as humanly possible and just say it was a mistake. It was all a mistake.”

It looks like Anne Hathaway dumped her boyfriend of four years at just the right time. Italian “businessman” Raffaello Follieri, 29, was just arrested yesterday for charges of money laundering and wire fraud. He also told a whopper of a lie to an undercover agent that he was CFO of the Vatican and could get church land cheap:

Manhattan prosecutors say an Italian businessman who has been romantically linked to movie star Anne Hathaway has been arrested on wire fraud conspiracy and money laundering charges.

Raffaello Follieri is due in Manhattan federal court on Tuesday.

He is accused of falsely telling an investor that he had been appointed as the chief financial officer of the Vatican.

Authorities say he claimed that, as a result of that connection, he and others could obtain properties of the Catholic church in the United States at a substantial discount to fair market value.

Follieri runs a Catholic charity that claims its purpose is vaccinating children in the third world, but it sounds like it was just a front for a money laundering scheme. He was sued in 2007 and accused of embezzling millions from a charity organization he ran with billionaire Ron Burkle. That suit was settled out of court for a rumored $1.3 million. Follieri’s next brush with the law was after he bounced a check for $215,000 in March. The charges were dropped when he eventually made good on the funds.

Hathaway has not confirmed the split personally or through her reps, although even People magazine claimed to have a source stating it was true. She said on an episode of The View that aired last Thursday that “I’m kind of somber today.” When asked by Joy Behar if she had mood swings she said “Let’s not go there.”

It sounds like Hathaway’s personal wealth would have been at risk if she stayed with this creepy charmer. Her film Get Smart ruled the box office its opening weekend with $38 million in gross revenue. Her career can only rise, especially now that she’s gotten rid of the dead weight.

Italian businessman Raffaello Follieri, whom Get Smart actress Anne Hathaway broke up with earlier this month, has been arrested for fraud, money laundering and conspiracy to commit wire fraud.

Follieri, no stranger to scandals, has been accused of lying to investors, claiming to be the CFO of the Vatican, the Associated Press reports. He is due in Manhattan federal court Tuesday.
Hathaway, 25, is not mentioned by name in the complaint against Follieri, 29, but he’s accused of using the swindled funds in question for a trip to the Dominican Republic over New Years 2005/2006 with his “then girlfriend” and another couple. According to the papers filed by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, he also used the funds for his $37,000-a month-apartment rent, medical bills for himself and his “then girlfriend” as well as orthodontist bills for his father.

The complaint also charges that he kept clergy robes in his office and once asked a monsignor to change into the uniform of a more senior clergyman in order to beef up his alleged Vatican connections.

According to another new press release the U.S. Attorney’s Office issued, Follieri could go to prison for life.

Breakdown of the Charges

• Six counts of wire fraud and each count carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.
• Five counts of money laundering and each count also carries a max of 20 years in jail.
• One count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, which carries a maximum penalty of 5 years behind bars.

Checkered Past

Hathaway and Follieri have been in the spotlight for several months as a result of his legal issues.

Follieri was recently under investigation by the New York State Attorney General’s office, which has no record of IRS tax disclosure forms necessary for his charitable Follieri Foundation.

He was also arrested in April for allegedly writing a $215,000 bad check, but was cleared of that charge upon repayment of the funds.

On June 16, Hathaway walked the Get Smart red carpet alone in Los Angeles, with friends confirming the on-and-off-again couple’s current split.

Hathaway’s rep declined to comment.

Anne Hathaway is currently in Australia promoting the “Get Smart” movie. I was going to tell you about this Anne Hathaway tooth story, but then decided it really wasn’t interesting enough to share. If you wanna read it, click here.

In all reality all I wanted to do was post that above picture of Anne’s breasts. Those are some beautiful, supple looking breasts. I’m still on the fence with this one. Sometimes I think I wouldn’t mind finding out what she smells like, and then other times I’m like, ‘Meh.’

Anne Hathaway and Steve Carrell star in the soon to be released Get Smart and now is about the time they give a few funny anecdotes to promote the movie. Usually if there’s a sex or makeout scene in the movie actors talk about how nervous they were beforehand or the bad breath they had. Anne Hathaway has a different story. One much more gross.

“There was a health scare last year and a certain contact solution, I won’t say the name of it but it was the one that I use — gave you conjunctivitis,” Hathaway explained to Pop Tarts while promoting her latest stint as Agent 99. “I also had a sinus infection at the same time. So I had to go up to Steve, my eye is red, puffy and dripping green — I’m just like snotty and I’m just like … ‘Come here!’”

It wasn’t until after their intimate lip-lock that Hathaway discovered she had the highly contagious eye illness and had to make the dreaded call later that night to the film’s producer, Alex Gartner.

“I said you might want to call Steve and let him know I had pink eye and my tears kind of got in my mouth, so he might want to worry about that,” she said.

If I was Steve Carrell, I wouldn’t have mind. I’d be pretty excited actually. By the time I was through with Anne, I would have cleared the phlegm from her throat with my tongue. Come to think of it, that’s probably why I never got a callback for that one gig. The tongue thing might have been too much for a Wendy’s commercial. I’m just too edgy I guess.

If you’re wondering, Anne Hathaway was filming Bride Wars which explains her healthy orange glow.

Audiences still get Maxwell Smart. Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway’s “Get Smart,” the Warner Bros. big screen update of the 1960s spy sitcom, raked in $39.2 million to debut as the No. 1 weekend movie, according to studio estimates Sunday.

But movie-goers did not get Mike Myers‘ “The Love Guru,” the weekend’s other new wide release. The Paramount Pictures comedy about a self-help mentor took in just $14 million to open at No. 4.

In limited release, “Kit Kittredge: An American Girl” opened strongly with $222,697 in five theaters, averaging $44,539 a cinema, compared with $10,012 in 3,911 theaters for “Get Smart.”

“Kit Kittredge,” released by Picturehouse and based on the popular line of American Girl dolls, stars Abigail Breslin as a 9-year-old aspiring newspaper reporter during the Depression. The film expands into wide release July 2.

The weekend’s No. 2 spot was a photo finish between DreamWorks Animation and Paramount’s “Kung Fu Panda” and Universal’s “The Incredible Hulk.”

In its third weekend, “Kung Fu Panda” pulled in $21.7 million, raising its domestic total to $155.6 million. “The Incredible Hulk” was right behind with $21.6 million in its second weekend to lift its total to $96.5 million.

“Panda” and “Hulk” were close enough that their rankings could change when final numbers are released Monday.

Hollywood’s summer surge continued, with total revenues climbing for the fourth straight weekend compared to last year. The top 12 movies took in $136.9 million, up nearly 10 percent from the same weekend in 2007, when Carell’s “Evan Almighty” opened at No. 1 with $31.2 million.

The industry is on track to beat the revenue record set last summer, when receipts topped $4 billion for the first time.

“While the country may be suffering with a so-called recession, people are finding movies a fairly inexpensive way to get their entertainment,” said Paul Dergarabedian, president of box-office tracker Media By Numbers. “This proves the conventional wisdom that, during tough economic times, the movies flourish.”

In “Get Smart,” Carell re-creates the bumbling Max Smart character created by Don Adams, with Hathaway playing the capable Agent 99 as the duo try to stop a plot to arm unstable governments with nuclear bombs. Dwayne Johnson co-stars as a superstar spy colleague.

Critics picked apart the movie for emphasizing action over the crisp verbal comedy of the TV show, but Warner Bros. figures that was a wise commercial move. While 60 percent of the audience was 25 or older, that still meant a sizable younger crowd that was more keen on the movie’s action, said Dan Fellman, the studio’s head of distribution.

“We were very pleased to have 40 percent under 25, because they did not grow up on the television show,” Fellman said. “The filmmakers did a great job in making that happen. They broadened the audience and brought it into a modern-day bent.”

Myers — who dreamed up the “Love Guru” character, co-wrote the script and was a producer on the movie — has been accustomed to blockbuster openings with the three “Shrek” flicks and his two “Austin Powers” spy sequels.

“Mike Myers, the master of the spy spoof, opens his movie against a spy comedy, and the spy movie genre was obviously a lot more appealing to audiences,” Dergarabedian said.

Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Media By Numbers LLC. Final figures will be released Monday.

1. “Get Smart,” $39.2 million.

2. “Kung Fu Panda,” $21.7 million.

3. “The Incredible Hulk,” $21.6 million.

4. “The Love Guru,” $14 million.

5. “The Happening,” $10 million.

6. “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” $8.4 million.

7. “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan,” $7.2 million.

8. “Sex and the City,” $6.5 million.

9. “Iron Man,” $4 million.

10. “The Strangers,” $1.9 million.

Anne Hathaway at the American Museum of Natural History’s Winter Dance which was held last night. I have no idea what this event was for, but all I really care about is how legtastic Anne Hathaway looks.

She’s one of those celebrities that you tend to forget about or under appreciate, isn’t she? Although seeing these pictures and seeing her in her underwear in the Get Smart trailer will keep her prancing around in the ol’ noggin for a while me thinks.

In case you haven’t had the opportunity to see the movie “Get Smart” yet, here are some Anne Hathaway photos from the premiere. This is as close as we can get you to the movie, unless of course you haven’t seen the ton of Anne Hathaway Get Smart promotion photos we posted earlier in the week.

More Anne Hathaway pics after the jump!

Anne Hathaway and Steve Carell took these photos for their latest film, “Get Smart.” The movie is a remake of the 1965 orginal and also stars Dwyane “The Rock” Johnson. In the movie Steve plays Maxwell Smart, Agent 86 for CONTROL, and he battles the forces of KAOS with the more-competent Agent 99, played by Anne, at his side.

Other than the movie, Anne has been in the news recently regarding her scandalous boyfriend. First it was checks and now his charity is in question. Her man, businessman Raffaello Follieri, is under investigation by the New York State Attorney General, which apparently has no record of IRS tax disclosure forms necessary for his foundation. Oops!

The Follieri Foundation, for which Anne Hathaway at one time served on the board of directors, reportedly does such work as vaccinating children in Third World countries. Maybe.
