Take a lesson from the Brit's who had to shell out $40,000 to the Oscar-winning actress for labeling her "The World's Most Irritating Actress". (By the way, we couldn't agree less!)


Kate Winslet won her suit against the Daily Mail, which she sued back in April for their report written in January labeling her as "vain" and accused her of lying about how she keeps in shape.


She and her lawyers settled for $40,000 in damages and accepted it as an apology for their slander. Kate released a statement following the hearing, saying:

"I am delighted that the Mail have apologised for making false allegations about me. I was particularly upset to be accused of lying about my exercise regime and felt that I had a responsibility to request an apology in order to demonstrate my commitment to the views that I have always expressed about body issues, including diet and exercise. I strongly believe that women should be encouraged to accept themselves as they are, so to suggest that I was lying was an unacceptable accusation of hypocrisy."

Bravo!


And, honestly, she has no worries of being labeled that here in the States. Off the top of our heads, we can think of at least two dozen other actresses that we would call irritating over her!


Isn't that right, Lindsay Lohan? Mischa Barton? Sienna Miller? …
