Kate Winslet: Starring in The Holiday terrified me

Actress says she felt self-conscious on set

Kate Winslet

Kate Winslet has admitted her role in rom com The Holiday filled her with fear - because she had to wear skinny jeans.

When you're sharing screen space with Cameron Diaz you'd be forgiven for being a bit worried - but she was more bothered about looking good in her character's clothes.

The 31-year-old, who's married to American Beauty director Sam Mendes, says: 'I've never played a modern English girl in a movie.

'It was weirdly more intimidating because I was like, I don't have an accent to hide behind. I don't have any eccentric clothing. I have to look good in these jeans and ballet flats.'

Don't worry Kate, we reckon you pulled it off just fine.
