Kate Winslet - “InStyle” February 2009

Kate Winslet - “InStyle” February 2009

Kate Winslet looks better than ever in Herve Leger on the February 2009 cover of InStyle. Here’s what the 33-year-old British beauty opened up about:

On not wanting plastic surgery: “I’m a normal human being. I don’t have any desire to change my body as a result of having had two kids. That’s a good thing, isn’t it?” (Oprah told Kate earlier this week: “God bless your real breasts.”

On how Hollywood has changed these past few years: “There is so much access to celebrity that it’s become harder to hold on to any mystery as an actress. The audience can have a fixed idea of you in their head.”

On not wanting to be referred to as a movie star: “I don’t feel like [one] in my life at all, and I don’t particularly think I behave like one. I don’t have my own plane. I don’t have a chef of a trainer. To me, you’re a movie star only during the time when you’re at the Academy Awards or at an important glamorous event. It’s very much a hat that you wear, and as soon as the event’s over, that hat comes off. I’m back to being me and being Mommy, and that’s my priority.”

On not having a natural impulse to pamper herself: “Literally, the one maybe celeb-y thing I do is the occasional facial. That is the only indulgent thing, where I just lie there and relax for an hour. You can’t answer the phone. You can’t get up and make soup. You’ve just got to lie there and have somebody make you feel nice.”

kate looks lovely

# 3

oh I just love kate!

# 4

I like Kate but she doesn’t look like that. Photoshop makes older skin look like velvet.

But most people are morons and easily fooled so why not I guess.

# 5

She’s gorgeous, sane, and talented!

Hope she wins an Oscar. It would be 10 years too late…. but better late than never!!!

# 6

she is amazing! wow! love her!

# 7

She’s amazing…beautiful, talented, and real. She’s the kind of woman you’d want for a friend.

I love that she’s confident enough to display her affection (platonic) for her close friend Leo DiCaprio. She’s a great role model!

Congrats to you, Kate! I’m a huge fan!!

Enough of Kate Winslet, already, enough! She’s a great actress and makes very smart choices in her roles but she is NOT the second coming. Lots of us are walking around with our regular bodies, lumps and all. I’m just at that stage now where I can’t watch her movies because I can’t suspend reality. Stop doing lame interviews with Oprah and talking about your ‘real’ breasts!

her jared
u have a typo

kate is beautiful
love her!!

She looks beautiful and she’s actually talented. I adore her!

More women in the industry need to take note from her! She’s an incredible actress, and is a very real person. I have an enormous amount of respect for her. She’s very genuine and lovely. I hope she wins the Oscar! She gave incredible performances! :)

She is a good actress but there is a bit of phoniness to her. A bit over the top. Think she has been that way since Titanic and maybe before. Take her money away and then lets talk about not being a celeb.

I love Kate, as a personality and an actress…but why do magazines have to freakin’ photoshop everyone? Kate is a beatuful woman as she is, so why do have to “touch up” photos so that every celeb looks like they came from a cookie cutter? I just don’t get it. This does not look like the real Kate, just some plastic resemblence of Kate.

Finally a normal woman.

Nora, you’re misinformed. She wasn’t the one to bring up her “real breasts”, Oprah was. Here is a woman who has enormous talent, a normal outlook and an “every woman” quality. Love her. Why she hasn’t won an Oscar yet, after “Finding Neverland”, “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” and “Little Children”, I have NO idea.

she is a very good example for older and younger women! she is all natural and that is so rare in hollywood! She is the best!
she is naturally pretty, they dont need to photoshop it so much!

I think Kate is extremely talented but this “normal woman” stuff is crap. She looks incredibly different from her hair color to her body from where she began. She has sculpted and toned her body to more closely resemble those in Hollywood and she should just admit it. She’s married to a director and splits time between NY and London and she’s not just like us. This is all part of the Oscar campaign waged on her behalf and Kate is obsessed with winning an Oscar. She wants one and she will do whatever she needs to in order to get it. The more she speaks the more she sounds like the phony Ms. Witherspoon.

pic looks fake but that’s alright, most recent celeb photos all look like this and most celebs were fake anyway, so…

Not impressed by JA @ 01/14/2009 at 8:55 pm

She is normal but it’s easier to live that kind of life when you are doing low budget and independant movies that the general public don’t care about. People whho consume her movies are not tabs target so she doesn’t live under the public scrutiny
-
She took that route just after Titanic. If she had several commercial successes she would be hounded and forced to live diffirently…Besides that’s what happens just after Titanic in the UK. I remebered her saying that it was easier to get her anonymity in the US..
-
Stars don’t choose, celabrity choose them and if she had that kind of celebrity, she could not possibly live normal until she reached 40. Just like Reese who is never hounded, never criticized for her physique, what she does or not to the lest details, ect… they can get away and live as normal as us because they their aura doesn’t feed public scrutiny.
