Natural woman!
Embracing her curves is nothing new to Kate Winslet, but now the actress is taking an active stand against the pressure in Hollywood for women to undergo cosmetic surgery.

The 35-year-old actress told London's The Telegraph that she and fellow British Oscar-winners Emma Thompson and Rachel Weisz have formed what she describes as the "British Anti-Cosmetic Surgery League."

"I will never give in," she said. "It goes against my morals, the way that my parents brought me up and what I consider to be natural beauty."
While the women's resolve not to go under the knife is real, their league might be more of a way to speak out against ageism than an active organization.
"I am an actress, I don't want to freeze the expression of my face," Winslet said.
Thompson, 52, agreed. "I'm not fiddling about with myself," she exclaimed. "We're in this awful youth-driven thing now where everybody needs to look 30 at 60."
Newly-married Weisz, 41, said that people "who look too perfect don't look sexy or particularly beautiful."

15She is such a hypocrite! Have you seen her pre-Titanic pictures? I wonder, in fact, how many plastic surgeries had she undergone to look like she does today. Such a shame!

WAY to go Kate Winslet, she's so right, she doesn't need cosmetic or plastic surgery, she's beautiful already. She still looks like the beautiful young woman we all saw on the big screen in the film, Titanic. :)

if plastic surgery are count only for face(to go through the knife)then what about things that concern the face, like nose job,eyelashes job,botox job,belly job,breast lifting,etc? if kate winslet and others when through this jobs, then why are they now kicking against plastic surgery(going through the knife)?

I've always loved Kate Winslet, great actress!.....that's all I gotta say
@Jeri: She has not had botox. If you've ever seen closeups of Kate Winslett you'll see her lines and wrinkles...and she's still beautiful!! I'm glad these women are doing this. It's good for young girls to see older women embrace their age. Good job ladies!!
If everyone looked 25, who would play the roles of the wise old mentors or old women with spunk? I look up to these women even more now than ever...thank you, ladies, for embracing the beauty you were born with!!!
Apparently Botox doesn't count as plastic surgery
I agree . Plastic surgeries terrify me, I rather my "falsies" as Juliana Ramsey reveals.
@Hanhan Solosolo - you're simply a woman hater, wouldn't be able to appreciate a woman regardless of shape, size, weight, or hair color even if you took classes in respect, which it's obvious you haven't. Sounds pretty clear you have some mommy issues you haven't resolved.
I honestly don't even know where the bigwigs in that crazy business get the idea that the public even WANTS actors and actresses who are all plastic-surgeried out. Movies are apt to do much better when you have a real actress with real talent playing a real character. I know personally I'd never drop a dime to see a Megan Fox movie, but I'd shell out a week's salary to see Meryl Streep, wrinkles and all.
I love these woman even more now. Natural beauty is awesome. Plastic surgury is just no stupid and most of the time u dont look real anymore
Oh please she totally had something done to hide her wrinkles. She looks way older than 35 and she needs to wax her facial hair.
