I don’t know, ‘Zorro’ was just so great for me because, knowing where I came from, everyone spoke Spanish to me, like, forever after that. And I’m, like, from Wales. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I love clothes, and yes, we go out, but it’s not like I’m walking around all day in a negligee with fluffy mules. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I’m intimidated every day I go on the stage and everyday I go on a movie set. It’s terrifying and I always want to reshoot the first day or the first week, I’m so terrified. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I like to feel sexy. I know my husband thinks I’m sexy. I think he is too. But I don’t go out half-naked with ‘sex’ written across my back. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I get terrified the first day I’m on a film set. I get nervous walking down a red carpet. I find making speeches the most terrifying thing in the world. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I try and stay positive; being negative isn’t good for my personality. I don’t just bring myself down, I bring everyone around me down. It’s like a dark cloud, ‘Uh oh, here we go,’ and have to snap out of it. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I wish I was born in that era: dancing with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, going to work at the studio dressed in beautiful pants, head scarves, and sunglasses. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I have a ballet barre in my gym. I turn the music up so loud that the walls are pulsating, and I go for it for an hour. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
There are people who expect me to look the way I do on-screen, where I have a great director of photography and fantastic lighting. I’m sorry to disappoint people, but I don’t look like that all the time – no actress does. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I rub a mixture of honey and salt all over my body to moisturise and exfoliate. You wash it off and your skin is gorgeous. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I like ‘Zorro.’ I like people you can believe that don’t have those stupid powers. That is the beauty of Zorro. He’s just a guy working for the people, to save the people. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
It’s true, I don’t like the whole cutoff-shorts-and-T-shirt look, but I think you can look fantastic in casual clothes. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I like women who look like women. I hated grunge. No one’s more feminist than me, but you don’t have to look as if you don’t give a – you know. You can be smart, bright, and attractive aesthetically to others – and to yourself. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I do condition my hair with honey and beer. I smell like the bottom of a beer barrel for days afterwards, but it’s very good for the hair. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I’m a terrible cook. I am not allowed to go in the kitchen anymore after I almost burned down the apartment in New York. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I buy shoes sometimes and use them as bookends. They’re too beautiful to wear. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I used to go around looking as frumpy as possible because it was inconceivable you could be attractive as well as be smart. It wasn’t until I started being myself, the way I like to turn out to meet people that I started to get any work. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
In Hollywood everything is so documented. If you go for a drink with somebody, it’s passed around the world so quickly. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I love to eat an apple after a meal, just to cleanse my teeth – they always look polished afterwards. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
When I first met Sean Connery he was as charming and wonderful as I first anticipated. I left Rome thinking: even if I don’t do this, at least I have had a day with Sean. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I remember growing up knowing I wanted to be on the stage. I wanted to get to London as soon as possible and start auditioning for theater. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
If my revelation of having bipolar II has encouraged one person to seek help, then it is worth it. There is no need to suffer silently and there is no shame in seeking help. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
Being glamorous is about strength and confidence. It’s black and white – dramatic. You have to be strong. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
I allow myself to not feel the need to be some sort of wonder woman. You can’t do everything at once and tear your hair out when you miss your baby using a potty for the first time, although my son was obviously very sad that his mum was not there on his big day. – Catherine Zeta-Jones
