Kate Beckinsale's Secret to a Long Relationship? Be a Hilarious, Hot Homebody Who Never Does Cocaine
CelebritiesDirt BagIs it just me, or is everything about this interview with Kate Beckinsale ridiculously charming? She talks about her anxiety when shooting fight scenes in the Total Recall reboot: “When it came to the actual hour of it, I was like, ‘Oh, my God, am I gonna be the person who breaks Jessica Biel’s nose?’ I’ve only really fought with stuntmen and hairy werewolves before.” She talks about how totally useless action-movie training would be if she were actually attacked by a madman: “I think what’s dangerous about being an actor who does action movies is you think, ‘Well, I can totally handle myself now.’ But if my opponent didn’t know the other half of the routine, I don’t know how well I’d do.” And she talks about how she maintains such a successful long-term relationship with director Len Wiseman: “I think it helps if neither of you is shagging 12 other people at the same time. That’s a hot tip,” she jokes. “I think it’s entirely down to picking the right person. My husband and I are pretty un-Hollywood, you know. Neither of us has tried cocaine, and I think I’ve been drunk once, by accident, in my life.” Could someone please go back in time and remind younger me to start loving Kate Beckinsale way sooner? [Us]
