CATE BLANCHETT: DID SHE LOSE THE WEIGHT FOR A ROLE?

MUCH HAS BEEN WRITTEN ABOUT THE SCARY NEW ULTRA-THIN LOOK OF ACTRESS CATE BLANCHETT. [PHOTO AT LEFT - TAKEN A FEW DAYS AGO IN NYC.]

SOME HAVE WONDERED IF SHE WAS SICK. DYING. OR IF SHE HAS AN EATING DISORDER.

HERE'S ANOTHER THEORY:
MAYBE SHE LOST THE WEIGHT BECAUSE SHE'S SHOOTING/RE-SHOOTING SCENES FOR THE DYLAN BIOPIC IN WHICH SHE PLAYS BOB DYLAN.


PERHAPS IN SOME OF THE EARLIER SCENES SHE'S ALREADY SHOT SHE LOOKS TOO... FLESHY AND GIRLY.

[PHOTO AT LEFT - THAT'S HER IN THE CENTER OF THE SET.]

ACTORS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO DO THIS SORT OF THING. DENIRO PUT ON 50 POUNDS TO PLAY JAKE IN THE RAGING BULL.

JUST A GUESS.

BUT IT ALSO EXPLAINS THE BRUISES SHE HAD ABOVE HER BREASTS: MAYBE THEY WERE FROM WEARING TOO-TIGHT ACE-BANDAGES TO MAKE HER LOOK FLAT-CHESTED.

JUST A GUESS.



MUCH HAS BEEN WRITTEN LATELY ABOUT THE FEMININIZATION OF THE WEST.

MAYBE WOMEN HAVE BEEN MASCULATED TOO MUCH LATELY, TOO.

PERHAPS THEY ARE BOTH PART OF THE SAME GRAMSCIAN AGENDA - TO TEAR DOWN THE TRADITIONAL MODES AND MORES... GBLT STUDIES, GAY MARRIAGE, ETC.... ALL PART OF THE POSTMODERN LEFT'S CULTURE WAR AGAINST TRADITIONAL JUDEO-CHRISTIAN CIVILIZATION.

REGARDLESS: I MUCH PREFER THE OLD-FASHIONED, MORE ZAFTIG AND TRADITIONALLY FEMININE CATE TO THE EDGY/WAIF-ISH ONE.
