The Rise of Catherine Zeta Jones
Written by Jess on July 09, 2010

We think CZJ is fantastic at 40 and in her new movie The Rebound she is looking better than ever as she lands herself a sexy younger man in the shape of Justin Bartha (The Hangover). We thought it the perfect time to explore the meteoric rise of gorgeous girl from the Valleys from TV starlet to Hollywood A-lister to award-winning actress.

1969 – Catherine Zeta Jones was born in Swansea, South Wales to proud parents Patricia and David Jones.

Angelina Jolie and Catherine Zeta Jones battle to play Elizabeth Taylor
Written by Jess on July 24, 2010
Catherine Zeta Jones and Angelina Jolie are competing to play Dame Elizabeth Taylor in a Hollywood blockbuster about her love life, according to reports.Industry sources have named Russell Crowe, the New Zealand actor, Briton Clive Owen and Colin Farrell, the Irish star, as possible Burtons.

Mike Nichols, the Oscar winning American director, reportedly wants to make the film, which would be based on the book “Furious Love: Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and the Marriage of the Century”.

Sam Kashner and Nancy Schoenberger, the husband and wife who wrote the book, were given unprecedented access to a series of love letters written by Burton to Taylor during the course of their two marriages.

They were also given an unpublished first draft of Taylor’s 1965 autobiography, as well as a portfolio of the screen siren’s favourite personal photographs, which are reproduced in the book.

Hollywood sources told the US TV show Entertainment Tonight that both Jolie, 35, and Zeta Jones, 40, had expressed an interest in playing Taylor.

Jolie has already been lined up to take on Taylor’s most famous role as Cleopatra.

It was while making the 1963 epic that Taylor met and fell in love with Burton.

She was already married and their public affair was condemned by the Vatican.

After divorcing Eddie Fisher, her third husband, in 1964, she married Welsh-born Burton.

Their stormy marriage lasted ten years, with Burton lavishing jewels and other extravagant gifts on his wife.

A year after their 1974 divorce, the couple wed again, but this time the union lasted just ten months.

Taylor went on to marry twice more. Now 78, she lives alone in Beverly Hills, California, and suffers from ill health.

Burton died aged 58 from a brain haemorrhage at his home in Switzerland.

Catherine Zeta-Jones Seeks Leniency for Convicted Stepson
Written by Jess on April 07, 2010

As a federal judge weighs whether to send Cameron Douglas to prison for possibly 10 years or more, his stepmother Catherine Zeta-Jones hopes the judge will consider the 31-year-old’s “positive attributes” along with the drug charges against him.

“As a mother to Cameron’s half brother and sister, Dylan and Carys, I have seen Cameron be an exceptional brother to both,” the Oscar-winning actress, 40, wrote to U.S. District Judge Richard Berman in one of more than two dozen letters from family members and friends in support of Cameron.

“Never, in my experience over the years, has Cameron shown any signs of the disease, that has tormented him, toward his siblings, or has [he] ever been abusive to us as a family at any time,” she wrote.
