Tits are proof that there is a God, and that he loves us and wants us to be happy. ---

> [@corkboard](#): > > [tangental] When we signed up for cable at our new house we got the pay/premium channels for about a month, accidentally-wise. During that month, I watched a few eps of _Diary_. While there was breastal nudity, it seemed pretty obvious to me (in those eps, anyway) that the breasts that were supposed to be hers were those of a stand-in. We’d see Billie from the mid-chest to the top of her head, ostensibly topless, then a shot of the breasts themselves (chin/neck to lower torso), then another shot of Billie’s head. The cutaways were sort of clumsy and drew attention to themselves, making it pretty clear that they weren’t hers. Also, the stand-in’s breasts were either noticeably smaller or bigger (I forget which) than Billie’s bra-encased puppies. > > Maybe in later episodes there were shots of her breasts and face in the same shot, but I just assumed she had a ‘no nudity’ clause. [/tangental] > > And no, I’m not as obsessed with this as this post implies. 😉 Nope. If you check some of the earlier stuff, it’s all sorts of her nude without a body double. Not even a little bit of a doubt. She got pregnant, and what you’re seeing, assuming there was a body double in those scenes (pretty likely) was either when she was pregnant or right after. -Joe ---

I always hate to admit knowing junk like this, but I do think the series is decent and immediatey noticed the strategic camera work in the second season, so I went looking for an answer. 1rst season - her. 2nd season - all body doubles, due to the aforementioned pregnancy. ---

Yummy as Kate and Elizabeth are, Keira Knightley (here in _Pirates of the Caribbean_) still takes the prize: [http://lh6.ggpht.com/\_G43RLRLrQps/R2hUtPRl0EI/AAAAAAAAArw/qvK-\_99csJM/pirates6.jpg](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_G43RLRLrQps/R2hUtPRl0EI/AAAAAAAAArw/qvK-_99csJM/pirates6.jpg) ---

> [@flex727](#): > > I’ve lost interest in KW since she lost weight. She had to, for the industry. Being voluptuous is great to break in, but after that you need to let them use you to sell stuff. Not-voluptuousness is part of that because it makes sure no catty-cathy somewhere will start cackling, “Fat!”, which can echo through the halls of pop culture faster than a pants-ripping fart in a cathedral. ---

Lovely. Give two of the best performances possible in the span of one year’s time and it all comes down to “I don’t like her boobs.” I’m sure Ms. Winslet is sitting in her room with her BAFTA, her Oscar and her two Golden Globes (not those two) and weeping piteously. ---
