Kate Winslet Cries Recalling 'Horrific' Fat-Shaming 'Titanic' Critics


Kate Winslet recalled receiving 'absolutely appalling' comments about her body from critics after the release of the 1997 film 'Titanic'

Winslet’s 60 Minutes segment featured a clip of coverage of the 1998 Golden Globes, during which an on-air personality stated she looked “a little melted and poured” into the dress she wore on the red carpet with costar Leonardo DiCaprio. Winslet spoke out about the struggles of her Titanic fame in an interview with Porter earlier this year, stating, “I felt like I had to look a certain way, or be a certain thing,” adding “My life was quite unpleasant.” Nearly 30 years after the film’s release, Winslet told Porter she’s happy Titanic “continues to bring people huge amounts of joy,” and that the only time she feels like “hiding” from her famous role is “if we are on a boat somewhere.”
