I never had a desire to be famous. I was fat. I didn’t know any fat famous actresses. I just did not see myself in that world at all, and I’m being very sincere. You know, once a fat kid, always a fat kid … You always think that you just look a little bit wrong or a little bit different from everyone else. And I still sort of have that. I often look at women who wear great jeans and high heels and nice little T-shirts wandering around the city and I think, ‘I should make more of an effort. I should look like that.’ But then I think, ‘They can’t be happy in those heels.’

Kate Winslet, in a new interview with Vanity Fair.

    I don’t really think she’s fat, and she looks so gorgeous in the pic you posted! I’d take her cushion over one of Lydia Hearst’s bones poking my eye out anyday.

  3. jk says:

    She’s gorgeous!!

  4. Paige says:

    I love her!!
    Um, she sure as hell isn’t fat btw.

  5. Liberty says:

    i really respect her for some reason. I don’t think she’s got the typical beauty though. Nor do I think she’s anywhere near fat. Not even by Hollywood standards.

  6. LaLa says:

    nooot fat, i wish she kept her red hair like in titanic tho, the blond hair and brown eye brows just doesnt do it for me.

  7. Annika says:

    okay even by hollywood standards that girl is not fat. i see no reason why she should ever be jealous of anyone’s body. anything skinnier than her is TOO skinny.

  8. Lynn says:

    I friggin’ love this gal! She is always so REAL. I think she’s quite pretty, and has a great figure. I remember when she used to be a bit plumper, and she was pretty then too. She just seems like she would make a great girl friend. Like, she’d be trustworthy, and funny, and have a “fuck em’ all” attitude if you called her up to commiserate after having a bad day. Anyhooddle….LOVE YOU KATE!!!

    BTW – I remember seeing her in some weird (I think) Australian made film, which I remember for two totally gross scenes. One, in which her co-star pulled a full frontal nudity (Harvey Keitel) and then in another scene she took a standing pee that was just ewww. WHAT WAS THE NAME OF THE THAT FILM?? Anybody?? Anybody?? Bueller??

  9. joan says:

    i thought she has blue eyes??

  10. TSS says:

    Yeah, I love dating women with a gut and rolls on the side.

    It gives me a place to put my beer and chips.

  11. PurpleMonkeyPaws says:

    lol TSS your such an ass!…but ya crack me up.

  12. Hallie says:

    She is way hot and a fucking amazing actress. Hope for fat kids everywhere!

  13. hil says:

    she has never been “fat”, in the way people say it to be an insult. actually, when she had more weight on her, she was even more beautiful.
    also, i can’t stand when she wears make-up, it covers up her amazing face. i have always thought she is the most gorgeous woman i have ever seen and i would love to look like her.

  14. Lori says:

    she is really gorgeous. i <3 her.

  15. cosmicdenmother says:

    I believe the movie you are thinking of is Holy Smoke. She joins a krishna-esque religious cult and Harvey Keitel is the dark but sexy deprogrammer sent to save her.

  16. copa says:

    she totally has a gut going on

  17. Screech says:

    She is a beauty, no doubt about it.

  18. Lynn says:

    Cosmic! You’re right! that was it! thx

  19. jinan says:

    She is totally not fat. She used to be chubbier, true, but never “fat”. Yet I can totally relate to her, no matter how much weight I lose, in my mind I’m always going to be fat.
    But the difference is she’s freaking gorgeous and has no right to be self conscious at all!

  20. lolly says:

    oh wow, that is a gorgeous dress and color. i have the perfect jade earrings to go with it, gimme!!

  21. wtf chuck?! says:

    TSS? What’s with the haterade? Girl ain’t fat. She ain’t a stick thin waif, either, but she ain’t fat. Could she afford to lose a few pounds to get leaner? Absolutely. Does she appear to be at any weight related health risk if she doesn’t? Absolutely not.

    I guess you like girls on whom you can cut yourself on their razor sharp pelvises and collar bones. It takes all kinds.

    Annika, you’re mistaken. By Hollywood standards, it seems if your BMI is over 12, you’re fat. I guess that could be attributed to the whole “the camera adds 10 pounds” crap. I would guess that she’s on the higher end of a healthy BMI score.

  22. quirkygirlkitten says:

    she is gorgeous, smart, and talented as hell. fat? ummm….no. she is not a waif, true, but curvy is not fat.

  23. TSS says:

    lol @ wtf chuck

    “razor sharp pelvises” … that’s the funniest thing i’ve read on here in like… 18 years.

    So I guess you like your women to be in shape….the shape of one of those Fruit O the Loom fuckers.

    She called herself fat… I was just agreeing with her. She has a beer gut in that picture…either that or that’s where she’s hiding all her Halloween candy. She kinda looks like Scarlett Hohansson in that picture. And I KNOW that bitch is fat.

    If a woman is fat …she’s fat. What’s the big deal? (no ponch intended). Hell I don’t judge… I like a woman who has brains and can carry on a con…lol…I couldn’t even finish that sentence.

  24. Tracy says:

    She’s gorgeous, I’ve always adored her.

  25. Nelly says:

    Who said you can’t feel good in high heels!!???
