Winslet Gets Galactic Gift, Holmes' Show to Close Early

Kate Winslet has received a special gift from her new uncle-in-law, Richard Branson. According to the Daily Telegraph, the actress, who recently married Branson's nephew Ned Rock'nRoll, got a ticket to blast off on one of the up-coming Virgin Galactic space flights. The ticket, valued at 200,000 dollars, was reportedly given to Winslet as a thank-you for rescuing Branson's 90-year old mother from a house fire last year.
