Cate
Blanchett Credits Success With Sex Symbol Reluctance
11/20/07
Actress Cate Blanchett has credited her successful film career with her
reluctance to see herself as a sex symbol.
The Elizabeth star isn't worried about being at her most attractive in
public and on-screen, but sometimes wishes she could enhance her sexiness.
She says, "I've never felt I could play up to the myth of the sex
siren. But maybe that's been a good thing - because I just worry about my
work and don't have to bother about always trying to look like the hottest
thing on the red carpet.
"Sometimes I wish I could be sexier, but I haven't done badly for
myself with what I've got."
