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.

For marriage to be a success, every woman and every man should have her and his own bathroom. The end.

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.

Catherine Zeta-Jones was interested in a stage career from an early age, and trained as a singer and dancer, going on to find parts in musicals in London's West End. She first came to public attention in the early 1990s when she starred in the British TV series “The Darling Buds of May” (1991).

Was born in Swansea but grew up in the small seaside town of Mumbles in Wales.

Her parents are Patricia (née Fair), a seamstress, and David James Jones, a sweet factory owner. Her father is Welsh and her mother is of Welsh and Irish descent. Catherine's middle name Zeta came from her grandmother, who was named after a boat seen in Swansea Harbour.

She began singing and dancing at the age of four, largely as a result of her involvement with the local Catholic congregation's amateur performing troupe. She began acting at age 11, playing the lean in a production of Annie and at 13 starred in a West End production of the musical Bugsy Malone.

Catherine moved to London, from Wales, at age 15.

As a child, she was exposed to a virus that gave her breathing difficulties. This required a tracheotomy surgery, which ultimately left a surgical scar on her neck.

Acquired her first actor's guild card at the age of 15.

Fluent in Welsh, French, English and Spanish.

Her production company is Milkwood Films, named after the play "Under Milkwood" by Welsh writer Dylan Thomas,br
Catherine and husband Michael Douglas share the same birthday, 25 years apart

She is a big fan of Gladys Knight.

She has two brothers, Stephen and Craig. Stephen, is her personal manager and producer for her company Milkwood Films, and Craig is a well renowned stuntman.

In April 2011, Zeta-Jones sought treatment for bipolar II disorder, checking herself into Silver Hill Hospital in New Canaan, Connecticut.

Turned down the role of Claudia Nardi in the musical Nine (2009).

Salary

Chicago (2002) $8,000,000.

Traffic (2000) $3,000,000
