Who is better then Kate Winslet?

No one. Seriously.

The youngest actress to earn five Oscar nominations can be seen on the cover of the new Vanity Fair looking fierce. Like crazy. Of course, I think Kate looked beautiful in Titanic, even though jackass and Titanic director James Cameron allegedly took to calling her Kate "weighs-a-lot" on set. SHUT UP, James Cameron!

Looking forward to Kate reteaming with Leo in this Fall's Revolutionary Road. In the article, Kate talks about her close friendship with Leo and how she suggested him for the male lead. Sam Mendes, the director of the film (& Kate's husband, talks about how he respects their friendship and really wanted them to use it to their advantage when collaborating on screen.

And to all of the haters over in England giving Kate crap about how she must have been airbrushed....relax. Everyone knows there is some degree of airbrushing in every photoshoot. In a 2003 shoot for Britain's GQ, Kate admitted that the photos had been digitally enhanced to make her look much slimmer than she was. She claimed not to be mad at the magazine, but wanted people to know she was not really that thin.

In a culture that is obsessed with being thin and "marketable," it was refreshing to say the least.

Love ya, Kate.
