Cate Blanchett loses patience with reporter
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Oof. This is uncomfortable.
Oscar winner Cate Blanchett was not having it at a recent interview for her new movie "Cinderella," when a reporter asked the 45-year-old actress an out-of-left-field question. After the two chatted about booze, Blanchett likely figured he would soon be getting to questions about her film.

{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"How were you able to get that cat to do what you wanted to on a leash?," asked Jonathan Hyla for Australian TV show, "The Project," "I tried putting my girlfriend's cat on a leash and it just never works for me."
"That's your question?" Blanchett responded. "That's your f--king question?"
To which Hyla replied, "You took up all our time talking about vodka!"

To be fair, Hyla did later put up this self-deprecating Instagram post, calling his interview with Blanchett the, "best worst interview I've ever done."

It's possible she was just giving Hyla a hard time for his lackluster questions, but just to be safe, maybe don't mention your girlfriend's cat when asking about her movie.
