Cate Blanchett, best known for her Academy Award winning role as Katherine Hepburn in the Aviator, was injured yesterday September 2nd during a performance of "A Streetcar Named Desire" in Australia. Reports say that during one of the shows fight scenes she was accidently struck in the head with a prop radio by her co-star. She finished the scene like a true proffesional despite having blood visible on her head and neck. Minutes later it was announced that the performance was cancelled. A representative for the actress said in a statement that she is, "absolutely fine". Ms. Blanchett is scheduled to begin performances again today September 3rd.

  1. that's horrible but slightly humorous considering she got hit with a radio & it was by one of her costars during a performance.
