Cruz Immortalised in Wax
|
|
A wax figure of one of Spain’s foremost leading ladies Penelope Cruz has made its US debut at Madame Tussaud’s in Washington DC. Staff at the museum rolled out the red carpet for the Academy Award and Golden Globe nominee’s wax likeness. Cruz’s figure arrived to her debut in a black v-neck shirt and palazzo pants that showed off her physique, complimented by chic peep toed shoes and diamond accessories. According to Madame Tussauds’ publicists studio artists studied hundreds of photos and hours of video footage to ensure Cruz’s figure would be as accurate as possible. A bona fide movie star in her native country Spain, Cruz’s career in the US took off in 2001 with her role in Vanilla Sky. She went on to become the first Spanish actress to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Volver. The Santa Barbara International Film Festival will honor her as Outstanding Performer of The Year in January. Source: ITN

Miss Cruz is back to work! She looked ravishing in red as she turned up the heat on the set of new film Nine. She showed off her womanly curves in tight-fitting 60s get-up, teamed with killer heels and a glamorous faux-fur shrug. Their chemistry sizzled on UK shores, as they shot scenes at Nene Valley Railway in Wansford, Cambridgeshire.

"Growing up, Monica was the peaceful one and I was the impossible one. I was very rebellious about everything. I also had a lot of energy. Thank God my parents took me to a ballet school every day, because there was no way I could sit in my house."
