00:00 Kate Blanchett just opened up about her fear of flying, and apparently she combats it with

00:05 an odd flight ritual.

00:07 It turns out that even jet-setting celebrities traveling the world can be scared of flying,

00:12 just like the rest of us.

00:13 Recently, Kate Blanchett, Kate Winslet, and Dua Lipa appeared on The Graham Norton Show

00:18 and opened up about their quirks and superstitions.

00:21 Kate Blanchett shared a rather interesting way she deals with fear of flying, apparently

00:26 partly inspired by Kate Winslet.

00:29 "The more you fly, the more you wish you didn't fly.

00:32 So I do this thing, if I'm flying by myself, where I have to hold my breath as soon as

00:37 we start to taxi off.

00:39 But the problem is, if you get held, then I'm still holding my breath.

00:43 And then I read that you on Avatar learned to hold your breath for seven minutes.

00:47 I'm thinking, 'Winslet can do it!'"
