Has Kate Winslet Gone Under the Knife?

Kate Winslet's most famed role was in 1997's Titanic, which was not only the highest grossing film in history, but also got Winslet nominated for an Academy Award. In addition to being a fantastic actress, Winslet was also famed for being larger than your every-day Hollywood starlet (you go girl!). In recent pictures, like the cover of this month's Vanity Fair, it is obvious Kate Winslet looks as stunning as ever, but has Winslet had plastic surgery?

According to Starpulse.com, Winslet has

admitted to being curious about going under the knife. On the contrary, her husband, Sam Mendes, is against cosmetic surgery in her case and though Winslet has slimmed down over the years and had two children, she said will respect her husband's wishes. What her husband may or may not know is that Winslet may have already gone under the knife. Though it cannot be said for certain, it appears as though the youngest actress to ever be nominated for five academy awards may have undergone a rhinoplasty in previous years to reshape her nose.

The only thing that is for certain is that Kate Winslet is not only a successful actress and mother of two, but is also drop-dead gorgeous. As of now her new movie Revolutionary Road, is set to be released later this year. Be on the lookout for it as she reunites with her Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio once more. Who knows--maybe she can put another record-breaking

nomination under her belt! Keep it up, Kate!

What Turned Norma Jeane Into Marilyn?

Most people who know me, learn very quickly of my absolute admiration for Marilyn Monroe's beauty. I couldn't resist the urge to write about the blonde starlet after recently reading an article in the 25th anniversary issue of Vanity Fair. Though it has been more than twenty-six years since her untimely death, a collection of never-before-seen possessions has revealed more about Monroe's fascinating life. Check out Vanity Fair's October 2008 cover-story, The Secret Marilyn Files.

Though she is both stunning and captivating, Norma Jeane Baker's evolution into the blonde bombshell known as Marilyn Monroe, may have been catalyzed by plastic surgery. It is rumored by MakeMeHeal, that upon signing a contract with Twentieth Century-Fox, the rising star underwent a rhinoplasty to lessen the appearance of her bulbous nose, and to refine the tip. She may have also had a procedure done to refine her chin, and may have undergone a blepharoplasty, or eye lift. Even in 1946 celebrities were willing to undergo surgery (although things were much more hush-hush then given the stigma attached to cosmetic surgery); the seemingly-flawless results help boosted Monroe's career. No matter what it took, there is no question that Marilyn Monroe skyrocketed into a pop culture icon, who will never be forgotten.
