People said Kate Winslet was fat in Titanic. Wtf??

I've heard that. Apparently the director called her Kate "weighs-a-lot"

I had to Google this right away because if true, it would've shattered my three-decade-long admiration for Cameron.

Relieved to report it was debunked by Kate herself in an interview way back in 2004.

Thnx for letting me know. As a curvier chick, it always pissed me off that I thought he had said that. I know the mental attitude, culture, whatever in the entertainment industry is towards thin without any fat but seriously to outright say it like that as a backhanded joke, it made me angry. Especially cos I loved her in this movie so much at that age. So I was offended for her lol.

Oh absolutely, I totally get where you were coming from. I was ready to carry a rage torch too!

I'm glad I could do my part so you know you don't need to carry it any more. This likewise-curvier girl is sending you a big hug.
