So, Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes have split up apparently

[DorotheaPlenticlew]

On the ticker on BBC News 24.

Thought there might be a thread, there wasn't so here's one ... although not sure why I am bothering really as my main feeling is .

Just strikes me as odd that it's on the "breaking news" ticker really!

ok so who is being accused of being a beard? Sam, Kate, james Cameron or Kathryn Bigelow?
Ah, Hollywood life...

What??? Are you saying that KW is actually gay and goes out with Katherine Bigelow?

oh yes, the beard revelation was on Shiney's sleb secrets thread. But didnt someone also post that Sam had lived in a flat above/next to the and was loudly shagging women on a regular basis?

Is Sam Mendes going out with James Cameron then?

The "beard" analysis sounds convincing, but why on earth would a film/theatre director feel any compulsion to pretend to be heterosexual? Ashley Cole, I can understand....

Sad for the participants and the children. On the other hand, Kate Winslett's now single. My luck might just be changing...

So, are they both gay?

Snorbs, she went from camera man to director. Unless you are the President of the Academy I don't think you've got much chance.

Eevryone is talking in riddles? Who is or isn't gay? Sam Cameron?

I was making a joke about James Cameron. Kate Winslett likes to move up the chain so I thought she would have gone for him had he won the Oscar for best director. I don't think he has ever been out with Sam Mendes on a 'date'!

Georgimama, well that's my point. She's had two failed relationships with people in showbiz, so obviously what she needs now is something different - an unemployed geek. It all fits!

They should never have worked together.

I really liked the first Mr Winslet myself, I thought he was very handsome, and felt he got the push when Kate went a bit too Hollywood for her own good. Hope he is with someone now.

I thought the same about Kate Bekinsale and Sheeny, freckly

Were Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward the only showbiz couple in the whole history of showbiz to have lasted the course?

Yes, possibly

He still cheated on her, though.

hollywood total legend managed it!!

Well I am quite sad about it actually. I thought they were well suited. Shame.

Well, Joanne Woodward was PN's second wife. Fred Astaire was married until death twice; so was David Niven, although he wasn't exactly monogamous. Depends how you look at it I suppose.

I used to like her, but now she makes me cringe.

Im bored of her talking about being a 'normal' mum and her weight. Yawn.

She would have more respect from me if she actually admitted that she was a hollywood player and ferociously ambitious actress. Nowt wrong with that.

She pisses me off no end though saying that she is just a normal girl from Reading with weight issues and is actually very plain. No you're not, mate. You are very beautiful and have a great figure - normal you aint.

If I looked like that I would be prancing around the world saying 'look at me I am gorgeous and a staaaaaar'.

And all the nonsense with her first child when she said she had a natural birth with no pain relief, when later it turned out she had had a caesarian. She sobbed in some interview that she felt under so much pressure to have a perfect birth that she lied to the media about it.

She is a bit of a twat, really.

I agree, she is just soooo fake.

I used to like her back in the Jim Threapleton days, when she still seemed genuine.
