KATE WINSLET recently revealed to Hollywood news that the first thing she did during the fire at Richard Branson’s private island was… put on a bra!

Oh right, we forgot. Chest support is more important than self-preservation.

During her recent appearance at “The Graham Norton Show,” Kate shared some surprisingly funny details about the scary, life-threatening experience she recently had while vacationing on Necker Island. The curvy blonde actress, who was one of the people at the Branson estate when the fire occurred, shared:

“It was genuinely very scary, it really was. I mean, we did wake up at 4:30 in the morning to hear the sounds of some of Richard‘s nephews voices yelling that there was a fire. And I jumped up and ran immediately towards the fire, because clearly I thought I could put it out.”

When she realized that she couldn’t, Kate went to her kids. She recalled:

“My children were standing at their bedroom door, and I said, ‘It’s a fire, it’s fine. Go back inside just for two minutes and just close the door.’”

Kate then admitted:

“Then I’m thinking, ‘Now what do I do?’ Ran into the bedroom, and put on a bra.”

Weird, right? We can’t think of any logical reason for Kate to think of brassieres while she and her family are in danger! The “Contagion” actress explained, however, that it was one of those people-do-crazy-things” moments. She said:

“In disastrous moments like that, you do the strangest things. So I started to put on a bra, and then thought that’s gonna take me too long, off came the bra, on with the T-shirt, grabbed the bag, grabbed the children and picked up granny.”

Phew. It’s a good thing Kate decided to forgo the bra.

Would you bother to put on a bra when you’re in a life-threatening situation?
