What Kind of Style is Kate Looking For?

The title say it all:



Apparently she had just finished getting her tan in Brentwood at Le Beach Club Tanning Resort when this photo was taken. One individual made the remark: "does she look thinner than usual?"

So, what do you guys think? Is Kate looking thinner than usual, or is it just a strange photo? In any event, I do agree that's one hell (being the key word) of an outfit. Too much Russian literature? ;-)

Beckinsale Studies Crowe For Rage

21/07/2005 01:25

British beauty Kate Beckinsale studied the films of Russell Crown to inspire her on-screen rage as Selene in the forthcoming Underworld sequel.

Beckinsale steps back into her leather outfit for a second time to play the vampire warrior in Underworld: Evolution, which is directed by her husband Len Wiseman.

The Aviator star admits she studied Crowe's troubled characters Maximun, Capt Jack Aubrey and Jimm Braddock in Gladitor, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World and Cinderella Man respectively.

She explains, "I studied Russell and it was immensely helpful."

Beckinsale was keen to stipulate she only studied Crowe's screen persona, and not his volatile real-life antics. The Oscar-winner was arrested last month (JUN05) for allegedly assaulting a New York City hotel employee with a phone handset.

BT'07 Update #6

Kate's second match up in the knock out stage of the 2007 Skins.be Babe Tournament ended early this morning and much to my surprise, she absolutely crushed her opponent (Megan Fox) without any troubles. The ending result was a massive 70 votes for Kate and a mere 30 for Ms. Fox. Suffice to say, Kate will be advancing to the next stage of knock out matches; her next opponent is undetermined as the moment.

She sure does love those shoes; come to think of it, I do as well.

Chose Underworld to Shock Hollywood

16/08/2007 06:38

British beauty Kate Beckinsale chose to star in vampire movie Underworld D to prove to Hollywood she was more than an English period actress. Beckinsale was sick of being typecast as an English maiden after starring in the 1996 TV adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma and the 1993 Shakespearean movie Much Ado About Nothing. She says, "This is still a complete riot to me that anyone lets me be in an action movie. Before I did Underworld, every time I walked into a room I would think there was a whiff of crumpets and fine china. If the character was a cop or whatever, it was, 'No, Kate's from England.' "So I just wanted to do something with a little bit more edge and then it took off a little bit more than I thought it would."

BT'07 Update #5

Kate's first match-up in Knock-out stage of the 2007 Skins.be Babe Tournament is going very well!

Last week I had predicted that battling of against Petra Nemcova would be a tough competition, but it's turns out that I was completely wrong (thankfully!). As of right now, she's leads Petra by 27 votes. Suffice to say, Kate will be heading to the 2nd stage of the knock-out round.

Apparently Kate was taking Lily to a sleep over when their good 'ol Ranger Rover broke down (which frankly, is what they do best).
