WINSLET DIETS TO STAY EMPLOYED

Actress Kate Winslet revealed she’s been dieting in fear that her excess weight may prevent her from landing quality roles.

The Titanic star packed on a few pounds this past year while she was pregnant with daughter Mia, who was born in October. While motherhood may be wonderful, it’s left her with some unwanted baggage.

“I’m trying to diet. I constantly wave the flag of ‘Don’t go on diets because they are rubbish,’ but I’d like to get a bit of the baby weight off or I won’t work,” Winslet told a British paper.

She may be playing the game, but that doesn’t mean she likes it. Winslet, who’s always received some flack for being a little heavier than other actresses, sees a definite problem with women in show business.

“What annoys me most is that the more terribly thin and fit actresses we have, the less real our films become, which is sad,” she says.

“Thank God for British [films]. They don’t care what shape you are.”
