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.
