The 33-year-old actress won the Academy Award for Best Actress for performance in The Reader.

"I'd be lying if I haven't made a version of this speech before," Kate said while accepting the award.

"I think I was probably 8 years old and staring into the bathroom mirror and this (Oscar) would be a shampoo bottle.

But it's not a shampoo bottle now.""My kids are waiting for me to bring home an Oscar," Kate later said. "It's great because with my husband's Oscar we now have a pair.

They love playing with my awards and this means they get to hold one each. I might just try and hang on to it for a while myself though."
