“I quite like making statements. And actually, I have to say, I’m at the point where I’m just like, You know what? Life is too short,” Kate said during the event (via Deadline). “But it is one thing that’s been happening to me quite a lot recently, people will say to me, ‘Oh, my God, so you were so brave in this performance, you had no makeup, and you look really kind of crappy.’ And I think, do we say to the men, ‘You were so brave, you grew a beard?’”

In another recent interview, Kate talked about her sex drive and testosterone replacement therapy.
