Kate

There are many Kates around the world... some better known than others... some gain more prizes than others. I'm a fan of the work of several of them like: Cate Blanchett (who's always here), Kate Moss... Katy Perry... and the list goes on!
But today I want to talk about one specific Kate, one of my favorite actresses (after 'Titanic', which frankly I didn't like at all), a great actress of her generation and no doubt a movie Diva.
Kate Winslet!
We're at Oscar's week (02/28) and I'm here just to let it record: the emotional and inspiring speech that Kate gave to thank for the Bafta's award for Best Supporting Actress in 'Steve Jobs':

Kate revealed that as a 14-year-old, her drama teacher said “I might do OK if I was happy to settle for the ‘fat girl’ parts” she added, “Look at me now, look at me now”... “So what I feel like saying in those moments is, any young woman who has ever been put down by a teacher or a friend or even a parent, just don’t listen to any of it. Because that’s what I did – I didn’t listen, and I kept on going.”
“I kept on going and I overcame my fears and got over my insecurities… I would like to dedicate this prize to all the girls who doubt themselves because you shouldn’t be doubting, you should just be going for it.”


Some of the best Red Carpet moments - that proves she's a Diva, btw

More sweet moments: 2009 Golden Globe Award accept speech for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama for her performance in 'Revolutionary Road' (a movie that she also starred with BFF Leonardo DiCaprio - much better that 'Titanic' in my opinion).

 To finish, I need to talk about my favorite movie with the actress: 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' (2004), one of the most beautiful and sad love history of all times! And it's a sci-fi so.. I love it A LOT!!

 
And of all Jim Carrey's movies this's my fav ... He's just so good doing drama! 
They made a great couple together ❤

 Seriously, if you haven't seen it yet, you need to watch this movie!


Ohh sh*** Kate is fun!
