Seventeen years have passed since Jack drew that naked portrait of Rose in "Titanic," but the scene still haunts Kate Winslet. Last month, while at the Los Angeles premiere of "Divergent," a fan handed Winslet a copy of the nude portrait to sign while on the red carpet. The image was a version of the one Jack Leonardo DiCaprio draws for Rose, who asks him to draw her "like one of his French girls" wearing nothing but the Heart of the Ocean necklace, in the blockbuster film. Why would you do that? They were asking me to sign it. People ask me to sign that one a lot , and actually there's a photo of it as well that someone's lifted from a still of the film. That photo gets passed around.

The actress explains why she still cringes over her Titanic nude scene and refuses to sign copies of that naked drawing. When Kate Winslet stripped down for that steamy portrait-drawing scene in Titanic , she never thought the pictures would still be following her around 17 years later. The year-old actress revealed to Yahoo! Why would you do that? People ask me to sign that a lot. One fan presented her with the drawing at the Los Angeles premire, and another handed her the naked picture at the London premiere. But at least that one was cropped from the chest up….
In the film she famously draped herself naked over a sofa while Leonardo DiCaprio sketched her portrait. Since Titanic broke box-office records, Kate has become the youngest person to land six Oscar nominations, winning Best Actress for The Reader in as well as two Baftas, a pair of Golden Globes and an Emmy. She also has a daughter Mia, 13, from her marriage to film director Jim Threapleton, 41, and a son Joe, 10, with second husband Sam Mendes, Those poor children! Looking trim in a chic jacket and pencil skirt, her skin is glowing and her blonde hair pinned back in loose waves. She shows no signs of being tired out by baby Bear. Bear may be no trouble but Kate does have concerns about Mia and Joe, with the increasing risk from dangers such as online bullying. Is there a premiere? Can you get me a ticket?
Kate Winslet has admitted that the nude drawing of her in "Titanic" haunts her to this day. A keen fan was seen handing Winslet a copy of the sketch at the UK premiere of her new film "Divergent," so we just had to ask her whether she'd signed it or kept it for her drawing room. It feels very uncomfortable.
