Catherine Zeta-Jones's quotes

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • In Wales it's brilliant. I go to the pub and see everybody who I went to school with. And everybody goes "So what you doing now?". And I go, "Oh, I'm doing a film with Antonio Banderas and Anthony Hopkins." And they go, "Ooh, good." And that's it.
  • After Scottish actor Sean Connery presented her with the Oscar: A Scotsman giving a Welsh girl an Oscar - oh my God!
  • After The Mask of Zorro (1998), people spoke Spanish to me for ages. I'm Welsh but that movie instantly gave me a new ethnicity.
  • For marriage to be a success, every woman and every man should have her and his own bathroom. The end.
  • [on her duel/strip scene from The Mask of Zorro (1998)]: I kept thinking "Thank God, I have long hair in this movie.".
  • I wish I was born in that era: by dancing with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, going to work at the studio dressed in beautiful pants, head scarves and sunglasses.
  • [on landing the role of Velma Kelly in Chicago (2002)] Did I want this role? That's like saying did I want to wake up in the morning wanting to breathe!
  • I do think I'm lucky I met Michael. Not just Michael Douglas the actor and producer with two Oscars on the shelf, but Michael Douglas, the love of my life. I really do think it was meant to happen.
  • 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.
  • [on what makes a man irresistable] Humor and that wonderful word called 'charisma'. You cannot translate it. I can't nail it on the head, other than to just say that I'm completely over the top about my husband.
  • Yes, I was in love with my husband at first sight and still am. We have the most solid relationship.
  • [on the Internet and its fascination with celebrities and pornography] I don't go into the triple-X sites. I'm certainly not going to pay money to see myself naked, when I can just go into the bathroom and whip it off for free.
  • I'm more insecure than I ever let anyone know, sometimes you protect yourself with this kind of armor that people see more than they see you.
  • [on being awarded the CBE in June 2010] As a British subject, I feel incredibly proud, at the same time it is overwhelming and humbling. And my mum and dad are delighted beyond belief.
  • [1996] I could never see myself living in Hollywood unless I really had to, it's not really my kind of place.
  • Being happy is the real key to beauty. It shows from the inside out. Everything else is a bonus.
