Kate Winslet: Big Apple Business Babe

Making her Manhattan rounds, Kate Winslet was spotted stepping into an office building for a business meeting today (February 10).

The “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” starlet was coming from an interview at “Live with Kelly,” and looked gorgeous as she strolled past the paparazzi.

Kate recently told press that she went to great lengths to get folks to wear her golden hat as part of the promotion for her new book/charity “The Golden Hat.”

"You wouldn't believe some of the things I did to get that hat to people. Like, I gatecrashed a private function to get the hat to Bill Clinton.”

"It was a dinner party of about 30 people, and my friend foolishly gave me a ticket. I'd just had minor surgery and I had stitches, and I was like, 'I don't care, I need Bill Clinton, f**k it.' So I hobbled in to this party in my cocktail dress, and begged. Unfortunately he was surrounded by handlers who wouldn't let him put it on. But I needed to try. And most of the time it was fine.”

"A lot of the time it was just me racing around the city to different events. Once my children and I made a road trip to watch Michael Phelps swim in Baltimore, so we could get him into the hat. I was terrified of losing it - and I was sure I'd lost it several times. See, at some point I want to auction it off to raise more money."
