Kate Winslet’s press tour for Avatar: The Way of Water has included several memorable moments, but few come close to matching Winslet’s decision to help motivate a first-time interviewer during an international press junket. A video of Winslet sharing words of encouragement to a shy young reporter has gone viral.
… Winslet was being interviewed for a German TV network when the outlet’s young reporter, Martha, told the Oscar winner, “Um, it’s my first time.” Winslet paused the interview and told her, “Well guess what? When we do this interview, it’s going to be the most amazing interview ever. And do you know why? Because we’ve decided that it’s going to be. So, we’ve decided right now, me and you, that this is going to be a really fantastic interview.”
… Winslet continued, “You can ask me anything that you want, and you don’t have to be scared. Everything is going to be amazing. OK? You’ve got this. OK, let’s do it!”
