Hot and Sexy Reader

hot and sexy Kate Winslet


Hailed as "the best English-speaking film actress of her generation", 33-year-old Kate Winslet is undisputedly a genius on her craft. A recipient of numerous acting awards, she holds the record for being the youngest person to receive two Oscar nominations, a milestone she would maintain through her sixth nomination, in which she won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in The Reader.

Best remembered as Rose in the highest grossing film of all time, Titanic, the hot and sexy Kate first appeared in a tv commercial, followed by roles in several tv shows. In 1992, she was cast in Peter Jackson's Heavenly Creatures, earning her an Empire Award and London Critic's Circle Film Award for her performance. The following year, Kate auditioned for the adaptation of Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, featuring Emma Thompson, Hugh Grant, and Alan Rickman. The film was a financial and critical success, winning her both a BAFTA and a Screen Actors Guild Award.

The hot and sexy actress began filming James Cameron's Titanic in mid-1996, alongside Leonardo DiCaprio. The film grossed more than $1.8 billion worldwide, catapulting her into a commercial movie star and earning her a Europen Film Award. For the following years, Kate has appeared in several films including Quills (2000), Iris (2001), Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2003), Finding Neverland (2003), and Little Children (2006).

In 2007, Kate reunited with Leonardo DiCaprio to film Revolutionary Road, portraying a couple in a failing marriage in the 1950s. Directed by husband Sam Mendes, the movie gave Kate her Golden Globe Award for Best Actress. In her recent film The Reader, she portrayed a former Nazi concentration camp guard who has an affair with a young man, in which she earned her sixth Academy Award nomination and went on to win the Best Actress Award, the BAFTA Award for Best Actress, a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress, and a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress.

Not only that, this hot and sexy celebrity is also an occasional singer, with her single What If from the soundtrack of Christmas Carol: The Movie reaching #1 in Ireland and #6 in UK. She also participated in a duet on the Sandra Boynton CD Dog Train, sang in the 2006 film Romance & Cigarettes, and recorded an aria for the soundtrack of her film Heavenly Creatures.

A Quick, Little GG Fix


The CW has been leaving us high and dry lately with Gossip Girl repeats every Monday (boo!) ... So we thought we'd just give you a quick fix of some GG love.

I want to raid Leighton Meester's trailer/Blair's wardrobe. She's just the cutest.

Oscars 2009: Who Will Win?

Finally... it's Oscar day! After a month of discussing whether Slumdog Millionaire will win Best Picture or if Kate Winslet will finally get her long-awaited golden statue, the moment has finally arrived.



As huge lovers of movies and all things Hollywood, we thought we'd share our picks for the top 6 categories. Our choices are based on industry buzz, personal preference, and gut feelings. We do not under any circumstances suggest you use our picks for any Oscar pool you might be doing...

Best Picture: Slumdog Millionaire
Yes, we realize this is the safe choice. But with the amount of buzz this movie has generated, we feel it's an absolute no-brainer. Every now and then, the Academy votes for the feel-good movie of the year--and Slumdog looks like the next big winner.

Best Director: Danny Boyle, Slumdog Millionaire
Do you see a trend? We think they'll sweep these top two awards. Beg to differ?

Best Actor: Mickey Rourke, The Wrestler
We're not huge fans of Mr. Rourke but his performance was amazing and well respected across Hollywood. Many think Sean Penn may nab this one but we're going with our gut and picking Mickey. (Now if only he'd stop stalking Evan Rachel Wood...)
Best Actress: Kate Winslet, The Reader
Winslet's Oscar win is long overdue--we know it, she knows it, even the Academy knows it. Let's hope the universe works itself out and she wins a golden statue tonight. We heart Kate.

Best Supporting Actor: Heath Ledger, The Dark Knight
Because his performance was THAT GOOD. He commanded your attention while onscreen and delivered an almost-perfect performance. The academy will most definitely recognize this with a win.
Best Supporting Actress: Penelope Cruz, Vicki Cristina Barcelona
You couldn't take your eyes off her. She's an underrated actress who just might come into her own tonight.

“It was so special! Just a dream come true... Getting engaged is a lot of fun, and a lot of nerves!”

Says Max on picking the perfect ring for Karina:

“You never really know… you just put yourself out there... I just picked what I liked and hoped for the best! My biggest concern was if it was big enough!”—India-Jewel Jackson
