    I can't believe how hating some of these comments are towards the English! Bloody hell, people, taking Liz Jones's comments as somehow indicative of public opinion is like me taking an interview with Perez Hilton in the National Enquirer as representative of the American public! Give me a break!


    I've never met a single person who didn't like Kate Winslet. Hated some of her films, sure (I didn't get ten minutes into Titanic), indifference maybe, but no one actually dislikes her. So can we cut the hate? If I came on here and said "I hate the American people", like someone did earlier about the English, I'd be heading for disemvowellment or banning for sure.

    I'm very confused. There are posts all the time cutting the Daily Mail down to size and others flat out mocking it. So why are we now giving one of its (batshit crazy) columnists any semblance of legitimacy? She hardly speaks for the entire country.

    Hold up: Angelina Jolie s famous for her "hips"? Is that a childbearing reference? "Hips" is about the last thing that comes to mind if someone mentions Angelina Jolie.

    Wow, great to know that despite a supposedly 'jokey' post (as those who have defended it have said it is) a lot of the posters on here have managed to say how much they hate the English (or perhaps they actually mean British since this is what the newspaper and the few other media outlets that are quoted are). I guess selective xenophobia is not considered a good enough reason for disemvowelling.

    @kemperboyd: I am attempting to do the same. I don't come on here and bash America, I don't know why there's so much hatred. If it was any other country they'd be disemvowelled instantly. But I guess we're in the minority.

    @londoner: Thanks much for your comment. England DOES NOT EQUAL Britain, England DOES NOT EQUAL British, and the Daily Fail DOES NOT represent many reasonable British people just like FoxNews does not represent many reasonable American people.

    The British really don't like it when their compatriots move to America and then do horribly vulgar American things like highlight their hair, excercise and invest in decent dental work.

    @bleedingmouths: I personally never excercise, brush my teeth or wash my hair (let alone dye it). I just sit in my drawing room, drinking cups of tea under my picture of the Queen, listening to Cliff Richard records, wishing my Grandparents had had the sense to emigrate to America not here.

    I have to admit that I found her acceptance speech at the Golden Globes somewhat annoying. HOWEVER, I think much of the backlash against Kate can be attributed to the fact that she is so honest about wanting to win awards. As usual, people are reacting negatively to an openly ambitious woman.

    @Sleuthy Sleuthstein: that's an interesting analysis and I think you might be right. I'd previously gone along with the whole 'eh it's just certain fools in the UK press making money out of disparagement' but I think perhaps there is a wider subtext and you've nailed it.

    I always find it vaguely amusing to read anything Hollywood related in the English press (their annual dramarama features on the mystical powers of publicists are wonderfully 1995). They don't seem to grasp the fact that you can't on the hand devote yards of space to botoxed, starving actresses and then start taking pot-shots at the one actress with crows feet and an ass. I think the irritation really stems from Winslet trampling on the cherished brand of British reserve with her gasping-for-air acceptance speeches.

    Amy Winehouse is crawling under tables stealing drinks like a junkie 4 year old and Britain is calling Kate Winslet an embarrassment? Someone needs to reevaluate their priorities.
