Cate Blanchett To Appear On A Special Series Of Australian Postage Stamps

 
January 22, 2009 
 

Cate Blanchett "can't wait" to be licked by millions of Australians. The "Curious Case of Benjamin Button" star will appear on a special series of postage stamps to mark Australia Day on January 26.

In a statement, Cate said: "I am utterly, deeply, humbled and chuffed by the fact that I'm a stamp. I'm going to be licked by millions of Australians and I can't wait."

"It is also recognizing the value of the arts in Australia. It brings it into general consumption and if I'm part of that, I feel intensely proud."

Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe and Geoffrey Rush will also feature on the Australian Legends stamps, which will include pictures of the actors in and out of character, including Nicole from "Moulin Rouge," Cate from "Elizabeth," Russell from "Gladiator" and Geoffrey from "Shine."

Nicole, who has three children, is similarly proud of her postal achievement.

She said: "I have a vested interest in Australia. I want my children to live here at certain times of their life and see how wonderful it is."

"It would be lovely for them to lick a stamp, put it on an envelope and say 'that's my mom.'"

Each of the stars will be presented with 24-carat gold replicas of their stamps.
