People magazine's “World’s Most Beautiful” issue is out this week and “Good Morning America” is exclusively revealing this year's cover star -- Anne Hathaway.

“The Devil Wears Prada 2” star is a force to be reckoned with, promoting five films this year. Hathaway, 43, said she's not slowing down and is embracing having fun in her career, instead of stressing over it.

Hathaway said she also credits her husband, producer and actor Adam Shulman, for helping to guide her through this extraordinary year she's having, calling him "a dream partner."

Twenty years since the first "The Devil Wears Prada" movie was released, the cast -- which also includes Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci and Meryl Streep -- is reuniting for a sequel, something Hathaway said she has dreamed about revisiting.

"Just to get to see an artist like her, I don't talk about how much I revere her to her, but I do," said Hathaway. "Someone whom I admire, someone who does it better than anybody, somebody who defines how it's done, somebody who is just living greatness. And never rests on that laurel but is always pushing herself to expand as an artist."
