Cate Blanchett is a brunette

I missed the BAFTA this year, as I often do. It was Sunday, and I didn't watch them. I would not have really regretted it, the ceremony is usually something that interests my wife more than me, but for one thing: Cate Blanchett showed up and indeed made quite a striking appearance. My wife pointed me to this article from the Daily Mail, but it was all over the BAFTA news anyway: Cate Blanchett had a striking dress with gigantic jewel on it and she is now... a brunette. Not a blonde, as she usually is, or a redhead, as she often is. A brunette. It makes no difference. Blonde or brunette, Cate Blanchett shines all the same.

Praises for Cate Blanchett

I did not watch the whole BAFTA ceremony yesterday, but I did watch a bit. In fact, I watched just enough, by this I mean that I managed to see what I wanted to see: Cate Blanchett winning best actress for her role in Blue Jasmine. Which I haven't seen yet. Shame on me. I will correct this soon. I hope she wins the Oscar, she deserves it, if only for not getting it as she should have had in Elizabeth. Anyway, I love to see her winning, always great to see her incredible acting mastery recognized. And I know I sound like a groupie. But I indulge myself because I love the art that is acting and Cate Blanchett masters it.
