a couple years ago basically this exact same story happened with Anne Hathaway. there was an interview in a British publication where she mentioned she was an arsenal fan and it was published with the headline "Anne Hathaway reveals she's a secret gooner" which was received differently by audiences who are not familiar with British sports teams
