Actress and ever-ethereal beauty Cate Blanchett is the latest cover star of US Vogue in the magazine’s December issue, spilling the beans on her love of theatre and looking nothing short of stunning.
At the height of her movie stardom, Cate Blanchett has taken to the stage as she embraces one of the greatest dramatic roles of all time, currently starring as Blanche DuBois in A Streetcar Named Desire.
