OlderCate Blanchett - “Vanity Fair” February 2009
Aussie screen queen Cate Blanchett is golden on the February 2009 cover of Vanity Fair. Here’s a snapshot of her interview:
On not ruling out more babies: “Who knows? Don’t close those doors. The world is very overpopulated, but we do make nice ones. They all look like [my husband Andrew Upton]. To say he has dominant genes would be an understatement.”
On signing a three-year contract with Australia’s leading theater: “Andrew had worked closely with the company, and when the idea came up he was wondering if it was something we wanted to do together. The opportunity presented itself, and it would have been utter I’m not a spokesperson against the world of injectables. If you grow up in an environment where your mother gets you a boob job when you turn 18, what hope is there? But I didn’t grow up in that world. The reason I went to train as an actor was that I was interested in it for the long haul. You can become very self-obsessed, but you’ve got to keep looking outward.”
On keeping a careful distance from Hollywood: “I don’t exist in that world. I observe it, but there’s so much else to be thinking about. Maybe it’s because I’m with someone who’s not with me because of that; I’m not a trophy. He likes the vessel, but he also wants to make sure the vessel is full. The world of film can be so noisy, but the other aspects of my life are actually the noisiest parts of my life. My best friends are a social worker and a visual artist.”
Cate plays Brad Pitt’s soulmate in their latest movie, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, in theaters now.

She is so elegant!! Just gorgeous.
Nicole K is a lot more attractive than Cate IMO! Cate is so homely and does not have the beauty and elegance Nicole has!
what is she talking about?doesn’t she work in Hollywood??
OK. ( LOL)
I think black people are stupid. Just an opinion.
Jews really should be put to death. Just an opinion.
I think someone should throw acid on school girl’s faces.
JUST AN OPINION.
That’s the problem with most societies. Everyone has an opinion and not enough of them have an idea.
omgosh neil. please tell me that was a joke.

I love Kate she is AMAZING ..
I saw CCOBB what a GREAT movie and I am going to see it again with my sister.
HOMELY is ChinNIFER the deadendNISTON ..
Kate is classy and elegant.. She don’t spread her legs open with two size bikini too small and stick her a*s up high 24/7 suntan freak !
Then go NAKED to sell her movie that ’s not even hers .. It’s MARLEY ’s…. LOL
Turbo Chin what´s your name
Why the hell do some of you people have this uncontrollable urge to drag Jennifer Aniston into everything!??? This thread has nothing to do with her.
On topic, Cate Blanchett is a timeless beauty and a kick ass actress.
Thank you Bella!
Cate is pure elegance and can act circles around most women in the industry. Just because Hollywood makes films she’s in doesn’t mean she lives that lifestyle. I can’t believe people don’t understand that.
She´s perfect!
Brilliant, pretty, luminous, classic, delicious!
She´s The One!
My Muse!
Exactly queen bee #5!
It was something that came to mind as I was reading too. I’ve no doubt what Cate Blanchett says just does not compute to dog movie actresses who cannot imagine a life outside of Hollywood and lifestyle not involving exploiting their own bodies to beg for even more attention. Nope. Certain people would die without the glare of the media following their every move. That’s why they will never be a real talent like Cate Blanchett or ever move beyond making more useless B movies. What ever will they do in 10 years when they can’t use their bodies anymore to get magazine covers. Hmmm. That will be interesting.
“What exactly constitutes a ‘nice’ baby? Looks? Race? Here’s a thought - maybe a ‘nice’ baby is one that actually grows up to contribute something significant to the world. ”
Oh for heaven’s sake… She is a mother calling her own children nice. Get a grip.
bow down, the queen is here- seriously on the best actors working today

You have a real problem” “just an opinion”
rolls eyes! Something really wrong with you to come up with that in the 21st century! Go back into your hole and stay there!

Cate is a classy lady and a good actress and not at all like most of the hollywood type bimbos.
she looks great in this issue. love the photoshoot. such a talented and wise person!
She is a natural beauty and an outstanding actress. It is wonderful how she stays away from the paps and all the Hollywood glitz, other vain, plastic surgery ridden, bad actresses should take tips from this gifted woman.

Buying it! F*** the haters who probably also hate the Jolie-Pitts. The lack of logical thoughts among the haters is telling and consistent, as well as their love of misconstruing peoples’ words.
She’s not ugly at all, i think she has an unconvencional and interesting kind of beuty and on top of that she is a great actress and person for what I see. Love Cate
She does not have the facial lines or droop of a 39 year old.
She’s had some help believe me. Cate is pulling our legs.
jealous much susanb? God, you’re pathetic. Get over yourself, sometimes people actually have natural beauty and can radiate it like Cate. Just because you probably didn’t inherit the “beautiful” gene, doesn’t mean that everyone should pay for your bitterness.
And about Cate, everyone should bow down to this woman. She is beyond incredible and so beautiful! These shots made my jaw drop. She easily could’ve been a supermodel. She exudes grace and class in every shot. The best actress alive (even better than I daresay Meryl Streep!).
It’s not that she keeps a distance from Hollywood, it’s that sHe doesn’t drag much attention anyway. Yes, she is a good actress but she definetely doesn’t have the superstar status of fellow Aussies HUGH JACKMAN or NICOLE KIDMAN
She is a natural beauty and an outstanding actress. It is wonderful how she stays away from the paps and all the Hollywood glitz, other vain, plastic surgery ridden, bad actresses should take tips from this gifted woman.
she is a regal beauty. so unique looking., I never thought she was so pretty, but when you watch her movies, she is breaTHAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL./ JUST SOMETHING ABOUT HER you cant take your eyes off of her. not to mention she has stunning facial structure!
