#WomanCrushWednesday: Cate Blanchett

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UFL chapter.

She’s an age-defying, glamorous, multiple Oscar-winning and intelligent feminist, career woman, mother of four and the epitome of style and grace. Who is this miracle our world has been blessed with? Cate Blanchett, thatā€™s who. I have a serious girl crush on her. She is a rebellious queen who tells off reporters for asking sexist questions. She is the style icon of any red carpet. She is the fabulously talented actress who has never been pigeon-holed. She is the queen, and her cheekbones are as high as the level of her majesty. Hereā€™s why we love her.

Sheā€™s got flawless dance moves.

Sheā€™s not afraid to tell it like it is.

Even when sheā€™s hungry, sheā€™s composed.

She is a boss, and she knows it.

She understands every collegietteā€™s struggle.

She may have two Oscars, but she stays social-media savvy.

She calls out sexism on the red carpet.

Twice in the same night! She really is an incredible voice for social justice.

And finally, she is glamour.

A role model for all, Cate Blanchett is a gift to society. She is helping revolutionize Hollywood, all while remaining fabulous and true to herself. Who knows, maybe sheā€™ll pick up another Oscar this year for her role in Carol.
