Kate Winslet

Yup, an Oscar winner has been cast in Divergent.

Following weeks of speculation it's been confirmed that Kate Winslet will play a key role in the adaption of this wildly popular novel.

She will come on board as Jeanine Matthews, the most powerful member of the Erudite faction and someone who pens articles to smear the Abnegation faction.

Divergent tells the story of a teenager (Shailene Woodley) in the future, as she looks to break free from her homogeneous society, one that divides people based on human traits.

She leaves her sect and joins its rival, where she falls for a young man played by the recently cast Theo James.

"I can confirm that Kate Winslet wed Ned Rocknroll in NY earlier this month in a private ceremony attended by her two children and very few friends and family. The couple had been engaged since the summer."

Angelina Jolie didn't take home any trophies, but she was instantly a winner at the Golden Globes in Los Angeles, thanks to her one-shoulder Atelier Versace gown.

The shoulder-baring piece showcased the mother of six's many tattoos.

Who's your favorite Kate?

Kate Winslet really has no idea how to play this celebrity gossip game.

She is supposed to get divorced, talk trash about her ex and maybe make a sex tape with a new boyfriend, only to complain about how it got out and then star in a reality show.

Instead, the Oscar winner has to be all mature and grounded, as evidenced by her interview in the latest issue of Harper's Bazaar UK. Asked about ex-husband Sam Mendes (the pair divorced in March 2010), Winslet replied:

"It's fine, it's really fine. I'm not going to s***fling, there's no point in even going there... We're grown-ups at the end of the day, and however hard it's been for me, it’s been equally hard for him. And we have a child together who we both love - and raising him together, jointly and without any conflict, is absolutely key."

Come on, Kate. What are we supposed to do with that?!?

Kate Winslet has herself in a "boy toy situation."

That's how The Daily Mail describes this Oscar and Emmy winner's new romance with Richard Branson's nephew, a 33-year old who has legally changed his name to Ned Rocknroll. The couple attended the funeral of Richard's father together in London on Tuesday.

"Ned is really happy with Kate," a source says. "[Ned] feels he can learn so much from her. It's sexy."

Winslet has been a long-time friend of the billionaire Branson and actually carrie his elderly mother, Eva, to safety last month after the house she was staying in caught on fire.

Rocknroll, meanwhile, recently separated from his wife.

Jane Lynch hosted, but Gwyneth Paltrow put on her own show at Sunday's Emmy Awards in a see-through Pucci dress that showcased her toned stomach.

Not the kind of thing you normally see on someone not named Kardashian, but she does look amazing for 38. Did she push it too far with this, though?

Gwyneth Paltrow's Emmy dress was certainly the night's most daring, but can it compete with Kate Winslet's gorgeous gown? That's a different matter.

The British actress, like Nina Dobrev and Lea Michele, wore red on the red carpet, and dazzled in doing so. Who dressed best, Gwyneth or Kate? Sound off below!

Co-stars in Mildred Pierce, Kate Winslet and Evan Rachel Wood stopped by the Venice International Film Festival this week.

So let's start the competition now! Compare the styles of these stars and vote below.

Kate Winslet is featured in the latest issue of British Vogue, covering the publication and speaking on her recent split from Louis Dowler.

... who cares?!? Winslet has chopped off her hair and dyed it a light shade of yellow! Check out the new look below and vote on it now:

In March, Winslet and director Sam Mendes announced they had split after nearly seven years of marriage and one son together. (Winslet also has a daughter from a previous marriage to Jim Threapleton).

Dowler and Winslet reportedly met through a mutual acquaintance and have "been on lots of dates and really enjoy each other's company," a source told Great Britian's The Mirror.  "Louis has a good sense of humor and is a lovely guy. He gets lots of attention when he's out and about - but he's not your typical model. Not at all big-headed.

"Kate certainly seems smitten... They've really got something special."
