WINSLET SUFFERED PANIC ATTACK BEFORE THE OSCARS
Oscar winner KATE WINSLET was so overcome with preparations for the Academy Awards, she suffered a panic attack a month before her big night.
The British actress insists she was coping well with the demands of awards season, having been nominated for an Oscar before, but this time things felt a little different.
She tells Time magazine, "I didn’t know what it was. It was a little like when your water (breaks), and you think, ‘Did I just pee a bit, or is this it?’ "I called my sister and said, ‘I can’t breathe, and I feel like I’ve got a brick on my chest and I’m seeing funny, and it sounds like everyone’s talking to me in Hebrew.’ "She said, ‘Yeah, that’s a panic attack.’" The actress picked up her first Oscar on Sunday (22Feb09) for her portrayal of an illiterate Nazi prison guard in The Reader.
