Kate is latest victim of 'Fakebooking'
The 'Titanic' star has the accolade of having the most sites devoted to her by internet pranksters on the Web site.
Kate Winslet has become the latest victim of the 'Fakebooking' trend.
The Titanic star has the accolade of having the most sites devoted to her by internet pranksters on the Facebook site.
One fake account, which claimed to have been set up by Kate, was closed by monitors after she called Angelina Jolie a 'fat-lipped crazy cow', reports Times Online.
False sites in Kate���s name have overtaken the number created for Britney Spears, the singer, Sarah Palin, the colourful Republican former vice-presidential candidate and President Barack Obama.
There were still a dozen Facebook sites claiming to have been set up by Kate, several with nude photographs illegally lifted from her Oscar-nominated film The Reader. However, they were mild versions of the dozens of often libellous sites that have been removed since last weekend.
Some reports have claimed that up to 40 per cent of Facebook's 70 million accounts are fake. The company has tried to clean the site up by 'deauthorising' thousands of entries, in the process managing to delete a handful of genuine celebrity sites, including David Beckham's Los Angeles Galaxy account.
