Kate Winslet Harpers Bazaar August 2009

 

Oscar winner Kate Winslet is the cover girl for the August 2009 issue of Harper’s Bazaar Magazine.

She talks quite a bit of nudity in her interview with the mag.  See some highlights below and gorgeous pics from her photo shoot.

On showing some leg:  “I danced a lot when I was younger, and I’ve always had decent, shapely legs and thought it’s now or never.  I mean, when you’re pushing 40, are you really going to wander around in a dress that’s midthigh length? So I thought, Oh, fuck it, I’m just going to do it.”

On nudity in films:  “I’m used to people openly discussing my tits. If people are noticing my boobs in a movie and saying they do what real boobs do, then that’s great.”

“I’ll be 34 in October. I can’t keep getting away with it. There was so much of it in The Reader because the story required it, but people have seen enough of my bum and my boobs. I have to put them back.”

On romance:  “Romance to me is spontaneity.  It’s not diamond earrings; it’s a bunch of daffodils that’s freshly picked from the field. Or just a little thing like Sam calling me at three in the afternoon, saying, ‘I’m coming home now. I’m done for the day.’ It’s romantic because he just thought, ‘I’ll go home. I want to be with Kate and the kids.’”
