Drama has come up over one of the photos in the Vogue piece where Kate Winslet poses with a fur blanket. PETA contacted the actress, who in the past has spoken out about wearing fur, and informed Winslet that what she thought was fake fur could be real -- and it was.
Vanity Fair has since apologized to the five-time Oscar-nominated actress, blaming a "miscommunication" for the error. "Although there were both real and fake furs on set, the fur used in the photograph is real," a spokesman for the magazine said. "We thought Miss Winslet was aware of this and we're sorry for the miscommunication."

It's too bad that Vanity Fair thinks they need to trick their models into wearing real fur. Cruelty can only detract from Kate Winslet's beauty. Visit www.FurIsDead.com to find out where the rest of that blanket came from.

When Titanic was breaking box office records, my girlfriend at the time made me go see it twice because she loved it!
I didn't complain at the time because I got to watch Kate Winslet, the most beautiful woman on the big screen today. She still is #1 in my book!!

Wow!
All you anorexic so-called 'stars' - THAT is what a desireable, sexy woman looks like. Not skin stretched tightly over bone, not a face botoxed to the hilt, not a frame that would look appropriate on a concentration camp victim with ribs, pelvis and hip joints showing - THIS is a WOMAN.
Droool...
