Kate Winslet at the 37th Cesar Film Awards at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris, France (2/24)
Kate Winslet was awarded the "Cesar of Honour" at the Cesar Awards Friday night in Paris. I don't know what the award is for, but I'm assuming it has something to do with having awesome tits. Seriously, this chick has aged better than Microsoft stock.

Kate Winslet = Awesome You wouldn't think it
by looking at her, but Snooki's idol in life is Kate Winslet (i.e. the anti-Snooki). In fact, she likes her so much that she had her people contact Kate's people . . . yada yada yada . . . cue Kate Winslet's awesomeness. From the
National Enquirer:
"Snooki idolizes Kate -- Titanic is her favorite movie of all time," revealed a friend. "When Snookie lost 30 pounds earlier this year, she said Kate was her inspiration, since Kate herself lost weight but kept a curvy figure."
The 23-year-old reality show star has marketed her image and done very well for herself with paid promotional appearances, but sources confide that her real dream is to become an actress. "Snooki would love to buddy up with Kate to get help with the process," said her friend.
The pint-size spitfire even had her agents contact the 36-year-old star's management in an effort to arrange a meeting but the request fell on deaf ears. "Kate was told, but she just stared blankly and said, 'What's a Snooki?'" a source told the Enquirer. (Print Edition)
The only way someone can become a famous actress in Hollywood these days is with a lot of hard work, dedication to the craft, and the ability to find a producer willing to sleep with them. Unfortunately for Snooki, producers probably don't want to sleep with a chick like her. If they did, they'd just go to the pumpkin patch and bang the gourds there. At least that way, they'd know that the disgusting bumps they noticed on their dicks the next morning were just pumpkin seeds.

Richard Branson's house burns down Last month Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo were married on Richard Branson's private Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands. And it wasn't cheap (for TLC, which aired a two-hour wedding special and probably paid for everything), as exclusive use of the island (for you and 28 friends) costs $54,500/night with a five night minimum. After the wedding, Nick told
People:
"We love to travel and we love Necker Island. We've vacationed there multiple times, and when we got engaged, we both immediately thought of the island as the perfect place to have our wedding."
Adds Minnillo, 30: "We were on a boat, on vacation, passing the island and we both looked at each other and he said, 'Yes!' I was so glad he said what I was thinking. Nick saw it in my eyes."
To avoid the paparazzi, Nick and Vanessa's wedding was in Branson's Great House, the first time he's let anyone hold a wedding in it (normally they happen on the beach). Well I hope Nick and Vanessa didn't fall in love with that house, because it burned to the ground this morning -- and almost killed Kate Winslet.
The Telegraph says:
Winslet carried [Branson's mom Eve], 90, from the Great House on Necker Island after it was struck by lightning during a tropical storm at 4am. All the guests escaped unharmed, including Sir Richard’s daughter, Holly, 29, Winslet’s children, Mia, 10, and Joe, seven, and the actress’s boyfriend. Sir Richard credited the actress for her actions during the blaze, which Winslet described as like being on a film set waiting for the director to say “cut”.
The businessman said: “My mum is 90 and can walk but it was more just to speed the process up than anything else. But anyway, she was great. She swept her up into her arms and got them out of the house as fast as possible. Talking to her, she said it’s like being in a film set where you’re waiting for the words 'cut’ but they just don’t come. So it was quite surreal for her to be in a real-life situation.”
The most suspicious thing about the fire is, at the time it started, Nick and Vanessa were 2500 MILES AWAY IN BEVERLY HILLS. Hmmmmmm. I know their wedding was last month, but it still seems a bit too "convenient" to me. Isn't that right Nick Lachey? . . . or should I use your given name: OSAMA BIN LADEN! dun dun dunnnnn!

Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes at the 81st Annual Academy Awards in 2009 Kate Winslet and her husband, Academy Award-winning director Sam Mendes (
American Beauty), are splitting up. I guess that's what happens when your wife catches you wearing her lingerie . . . I made that up. From
People:
"Kate and Sam are saddened to announce that they separated earlier this year," their lawyers say in a statement. "The split is entirely amicable and is by mutual agreement. Both parties are fully committed to the future joint parenting of their children."
Winslet, 34, and Mendes, 44, were married in 2003. They have a son, Joe, 6. Winslet also has a daughter, Mia, 9, from her first marriage to Jim Threapleton.
Wait a minute, what's with all the mutual break-ups today (see Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jamie Kennedy
earlier)? I mean, let's call a spade a spade here. Kate dumped his ass. I don't even know why she was with this dude in the first place. That's not the face of someone you take to the Vanity Fair Oscars Party. That's the face of someone you tell your kids not to take candy from.
