Cate Blanchett has been in LA for more than a week. She came to LA during Oscar weekend, attended a few events and presented at the Oscars. She stuck around to promote Cinderella, and I’m including some photos of Cate outside of the ABC Studios at the bottom of the post (in addition to the header pic, from Sunday night’s Cinderella premiere).

Here’s something interesting: Cate and her family are moving to LA permanently. Isn’t that weird? Cate and her family have never lived permanently in America. For a while, early in Cate’s film career, they lived in London. Then they moved to Australia and made Sydney their homebase. But Cate’s husband, Andrew Upton, told the Sydney Morning Herald that they will move to LA later this year, when their joint tenure at the Sydney Theatre Company comes to an end. He makes it sound like Cate wants to do more TV and film projects (and less theater) and he wants to do more freelance writing – go here to read his interview.

Meanwhile, Cate was on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night. Here’s one part, where she talks about playing a wicked character and how fun it is:

And she finally sort of explains why she told Julia Roberts to “Hashtag Suck It” at the 2014 Oscars:
