I'm here at the Young Hollywood Studio with the gorgeous, lovely. Kate Bosworth.

Kate Bosworth

Hello.

Young Hollywood

See, my voice didn't change, did it?

Kate Bosworth

No.

Young Hollywood

Didn't, stayed the same.

Kate Bosworth

Stayed the same.

Young Hollywood

Constantly in radio voice. You kind of were born with a radio voice, I think.

Kate Bosworth

Was I?

Young Hollywood

Yeah. You're very specific.

Kate Bosworth

I've been told I had a face for radio, but never a radio voice.

Young Hollywood

Oh, really? Which I later realized I did. Well, maybe you should just do radio. What where did this go wrong? It started off so well. The Warrior's Way.

Kate Bosworth

Yes.

Young Hollywood

I saw clips of it. Yeah. You throwing knives and That's the real you, isn't it?

Kate Bosworth

Yeah. It's not. I won't say how do you prepare for that movie, but pretty much every weekend.

Young Hollywood

And how with red hair? I loved the red hair.

Kate Bosworth

I like it too. It was important for me for her to have red hair because the director has such a he has such a specific visual kind of mind and he had really seen her with like long jet black hair. And I read the script and thought, no, she's so fiery and spunky and feisty and bold. Like I just saw like a streak of red and So I sort of I said, please let me just show you and

Young Hollywood

Did you keep that so that you had red hair for a while then?

Kate Bosworth

It was a wig.

Young Hollywood

Oh, it was a wig.

Kate Bosworth

It was actually a really good wig because they can be a little funky. It was a great wig.

Young Hollywood

Yeah. Do you still put that on from time to time? Play dress up. Right. Just for my own mental note. I'll just let that one.

Kate Bosworth

Okay, we'll let that one. Thank you.

Young Hollywood

How did you prepare for like the sword fights and all that because you you look pretty good.

Kate Bosworth

I was surprised at how much the martial arts were were more of a like I wished I'd had more ballet in my background because the footwork itself and the core strength was so much like ballet. I'd taken a little bit of it and then you kind of add the challenge of wielding large sharp objects in your hands and it's sort of it gets a little tricky.

Young Hollywood

Yeah, I always find that difficult. Late at night.

Kate Bosworth

Yeah. Well, I'm not allowed them now past 6:00.

Young Hollywood

All right. On to other stuff. You've got your jewelry line, your website. That's right. Tell us about that.

Kate Bosworth

Well, it's it's actually really exciting. It's been a fun um sort of side project. It's myself and my creative partner Share Culture, who I've worked with for many years and been best friends with since I was 19. She has this really amazing design background and design mind and I understand.

Young Hollywood

No, I love her. I really do. That was a joke.

Kate Bosworth

So this this website is basically it's kind of a club where people can sign up and they take a little fashion quiz.

Young Hollywood

Young Hollywood

Kate Bosworth

It's a bargain. Look, I'm wearing one of them now.

Young Hollywood

Very subtle little plug. Just went in there. Very naturally.

Kate Bosworth

Very naturally. Keep me busy then.

Young Hollywood

But what do you do for fun? Oh, I mean, like sports, cuz you you were a horse rider when growing up. Yeah. Quite a good one.

Kate Bosworth

I mean, I I was okay. I I really love it. It's my it's my first it's my passion. I still show jump. I'm a little bit of an adrenaline junkie that way. So I I still do that. And um I feel like I'm kind of boring. I feel like I'm boring in the Young Hollywood suite.

Young Hollywood

You're not boring at all. You're lovely. You still look amazing. High five. We just high five and we're still touching hands. Still touching hands and we're going to wrap. That's done. Don't touch me.
