Kate Winslet is scared of a seemingly harmless animal.
Winslet appeared on The Late Show and told host Stephen Colbert, “I’m honestly not great with cows.”
She explained: “No, no, no listen, here’s the thing. Somebody said to me, ‘Oh, you’ve got to learn to read a field of cows you’ve got, you’ve got to be careful, because if they turn, they’re gone.’
The Titanic alum shared the advice she’s received about fields of cows, saying if you “their tails are wagging and they’re flicking like that and there’s flies,” it means they’re in a bad mood. “They can charge you.”
She said she goes “hiking all the time” and has to “go through fields with cows.”
“I’ve decided they’re going to stomp me to the ground,” she remarked, prompting the host to ask if anything like this had ever happened.
The Lee star then recalled that cows once chased her and her mother.
“They were slowly Bo-watching it and then they took off, really, really,” Kate Winslet recalled. “Border line [a] couple of gallopers, I’d say. However, there are quite a few stories in England about people having very nasty run-ins with cows. Very real. So I’m extremely careful with a field of cows.”
