Kate Winslet has admitted that her “life was quite unpleasant” after she shot to fame following the success of Titanic.The 1997 box office smash became the highest grossing film of all time in 1998 before director James Cameron beat his own record with Avatar in 2009.Speaking in a new interview with PORTER, Winslet, who was 22 at the time, said: “I felt like I had to look a certain way, or be a certain thing, and because media intrusion was so significant at that time, my life was quite unpleasant.”She added: “Journalists would always say, ‘After Titanic, you could have done anything and yet you chose to do these small things’ and I was like, ‘Yeah, you bet your fuckin’ life I did!
