Beauty is a knockout block in Hollywood, and she ---- has long, dark, flowing hair and a pair of amber eyes that seem to have been born with a uniquely romantic temperament. When she first appeared on the screen, the extraordinary classical temperament and graceful and light footsteps that she brought, made the audience's eyes have an open and bright feeling, and Hollywood kissed her ....... She is Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Catherine, born on September 15, 1969 in Swansea, Wales, England (Swansea), she is the only daughter of the family. Her father was Welsh and ran a small candy factory, and her mother was Irish, a seamstress. At an early age she showed a remarkable talent for song and dance, joining the local Catholic Church's amateur acting troupe and becoming an accomplished singer and dancer. Her first role in her acting career was in the locally popular orphaned girl Annie, when she was just 11 years old.
Three years later, a touring musical troupe came to Swansea and, at the age of 14, Kathryn auditioned for the role. The producer of the troupe was attracted by her composure and versatility and recruited her into the troupe, and from there she went on to perform in a number of local stage productions and musicals. The talented Kathryn quickly became a starlet, receiving her first Actors' Guild membership card at the age of 15 and being called "the most promising newcomer" by London theater critics, Kathryn settled in London that year to begin a full-time acting career.

After her performance in 42nd Street, she went on vacation to France, where she had a major role in French director Philippe de Broca's film Scheherazade, the first film in which Catherine appeared.
Catherine returned to England in 1991, and the rising star's artistic potential was realized when she starred as the eldest daughter of a farmer's family in The Darling Buds of May, a television series based on the novels of H.E. Bates, whose clean-cut, unassuming portrayal made her a household name in England. The show was a huge success for three years and became a sensation in the British Isles, making Catherine a household name in the United Kingdom and a superstar in the movie industry. She then met American producer Jon Peters and worked on the ABC series The Young Indian Jones Chronicles and the movie Christopher Columbus: The Discovery. Christopher Columbus: The Discovery) achieved good reviews and made his Hollywood debut. At this point she was approached by Jon Peters, who asked her to marry him, but not wanting to become another "Hollywood wife", she turned him down and lost the opportunity to "climb the ladder". She returned to the stage in a production of the English National Opera's Street Scenes.
In Britain, the movie star suffered a great deal from the tabloid journalists who "watched" her every word and action. Once, in order to escape from the journalists, the car crashed into a street lamp post, and almost became "Diana the second". She decided to leave England and settle in the United States. But Kathryn soon realized that her "superstar status" in the UK would not work in Hollywood, where she didn't belong and had to start all over again.
Starting out in television, Catherine impressed everyone with her performance in the 1994 CBS series Return of the Native; the following year, she starred in the Golden Globe-winning mini-series Catherine the Great, which was followed the same year by a lesser-known film, Catherine the Great. In the same year, she shot the lesser-known adventure film The Phantom, and began her Hollywood venture. 1996 saw Catherine star in the television series Titanic, which didn't catch the audience's attention, but drew the attention of director Steven Spielberg, who thought she had exceptional acting skills and immediately took her on. Acting skills are extraordinary, and immediately recommended her to "The Mask of Zorro" (The Mask of Zorro) director Martin Campbell (Martin Campbell). It was this movie that changed Catherine's destiny, and the Welsh beauty made her way to Hollywood. In The Mask of Zorro, Catherine played Zorro's daughter, Ilana, opposite Antonio Banderas and Antonio Hopkins. She hit the ground running, giving a natural, generous, and finely endowed performance that was both fiery and wildly beautiful and full of the grace of a classic English lady. When people for her beauty, but also for her performance marveled, the audience quickly remembered the film that charming and attractive new face, critics and the audience praise constantly, praised her as a "breasts and brain" beauty, which rose to Hollywood's most popular new century actress, her many years of accumulation and hard work has finally paid off. Her performance in the movie won her the Best Supporting Actress Award at the 1999 Western Film Festival.
1999 was a year of frequent appearances for Kathryn, first with veteran Sean Connery in the romantic thriller "Entrapment," in which Kathryn played an adventurous, devilishly fit and sharp-witted heroine. She is in a line of infrared cordon to ballet difficult body movements through, the performance is light and beautiful, very infectious, there is a kind of moving beauty, fully demonstrated Catherine soft as a snake in the beautiful body and superb ballet skills. The American "Movie Line" magazine called her "the world's most amazingly beautiful people". After the release of "The Sky Trap", the "young and old" pair's superb performance was greatly acclaimed, and Catherine's value grew, and her salary had reached 8 million dollars. Then in the director Jan Dibon (had made "life and death", "tornado") "ghost into the house" (The Haunting of Hill House), with Liam Nissan and Lili Taylor co-starring, Catherine's charm in this film is also difficult to resist, the audience again saw her beauty and athletic body, the film box office revenue excellent. This was followed by a role in High Fidelity by director Steven Freer, and a movie in the pipeline with renowned movie star Kevin Costner. She also became one of the candidates for the role of Lara Croft in the popular game software Tomb Raider. Undoubtedly, today's Catherine is already on her way to a new peak.
It seemed like fate that Kathryn had fallen in love with one of Hollywood's most sophisticated and charismatic stars, Michael Douglas, when the two stars, who had never met before, met by chance at a film event in Paris in 1999 and were surprised to find out that they shared the same birthday and were exactly 25 years apart, and the two stars, who were going through their own emotional downturns at the time, were soon to be together. Despite all the press speculation and reports about their relationship, though, the couple finally announced their engagement on the last day of last year, and news of Catherine's pregnancy soon broke, and they are expecting their first child together this September.
Catherine was voted Britain's "most kissable" woman in a poll conducted on National Kissing Day in July. A pair of charming eyes, slightly curved lips plus a good body, dazzling, beautiful, sexy Catherine is many men's dream, the U.S. media have to "she played with our hearts, steal our souls", "the new Princess of Wales" and other headlines to describe her. The American press has described her with headlines like "She's played with our hearts and stolen our souls" and "The new Princess of Wales". However, apart from her perfect face and seductive body, Catherine's gracious attitude is also one of her most popular traits. For example, she can be generous and comfortable to talk openly about her views on sex, criticizing extreme feminists, showing the point of view that a woman has to be good at utilizing her natural female qualities ...... and so on, her charm is really hard for every man to resist.

On November 5, 1913, Vivien Leigh was born in India to an English stockbroker. Her father was a theater buff: Vivien Leigh appeared on stage as a shepherdess at the age of three, and by the age of seven she had grown into a beautiful little girl who attended boarding school at the Convent of the Sacred Heart near London, England. Vivien Leigh learned to play the piano, violin and other instruments, and from then on dreamed of becoming a great actress.
In May 1931, Vivien Leigh entered the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. At a school ball, she met Holman, a young jurist and lawyer who was attending college: it was love at first sight, and on December 20, 1932, when Vivien Leigh was just 19 years old, she married, and soon after had a child, and after a period of modeling, Vivien Leigh finally got her chance to be on the screen.
In 1934, she played one of a group of girls in the film Euphoria, and then by chance she met a film agent and began playing roles in such films as The Country Squire and Look and Smile, as well as making frequent appearances on the theater stage. She fell madly in love with Lawrence Olivier, then Britain's prince of the theater, while performing in the play "The Green Ribbon," and the two worked together for the first time in 1937, playing lovers in the film "The Great British Fire.
Later, Olivier traveled to the United States to film the movie "Wuthering Heights," and Vivien Leigh competed for the role of Houska in "Gone with the Wind. She traveled across the ocean to Hollywood, was spotted by producers, and within days signed a seven-year contract and set a whopping $30,000 fee to appear as Hoskia.

She performed the character's happiness at the time of first love, sadness at the time of breakup, and despair after losing the love of her life to the best of her ability.
Vivien Leigh starred in no more than 20 films in her lifetime, but she stands out in the history of world cinema with several monumental artistic images. She became an eternal icon in the hearts of moviegoers all over the world. Her natural beauty, her extraordinary vividness and her hysteria have all come together to be remembered.
August 28, 1940, Vivien Leigh and Olivier after three years of bitter love, finally after their respective divorces combined, the next year, they returned together to war-torn England. During this time, Vivien Leigh's health was deteriorating, showing precursors of schizophrenia. However, she remained reluctant to leave the screen and stage.
In 1950, Vivien Leigh returned to Hollywood after a nine-year absence to play Blanche, a depraved woman in A Streetcar Named Desire. She worked meticulously with famed actor Marlon Brando to make the film another success, and she herself won another Academy Award for Best Actress.
Subsequently, Vivien Leigh's mental mania became increasingly severe. While filming the movie "Elephant Walk" in India, she was hospitalized. Elizabeth Taylor replaced her in the lead role. Meanwhile, Vivien Leigh's relationship with Olivier was falling apart, and in December 1960, Vivien Leigh was divorced again, her physical and mental health deteriorating even further.
In 1965, Vivien Leigh starred in her last film, Ship of Fools, and on September 8, 1967, she collapsed alone in her bedroom doorway in a fit of exhaustion, at the age of 55, her life ended. That night, all the theaters in London turned off their stage lights for one minute, and the actors and audience joined in a moment of silence to honor the memory of this gifted performer.
Vivien Leigh's life was a long one, but the images she created for the screen have become immortal movie classics.

Cameron Diaz was born in California, USA, on August 30, 1972, and is Cuban, Spanish, German, English and American Indian ancestry. Her father worked for an oil company and her mother was an import/export agent.
When she was 16 years old, she signed with a high-level modeling agency to become a fashion model. Her pretty face and attractive body made her popular. She began to appear frequently on magazine covers, television screens, and in the fashion capital of Paris. But Cameron wasn't satisfied with just being a fashion model. But Cameron wasn't satisfied with just being a fashion model, until one day she was cast in the movie "Freaks in Disguise". The Misfits was a hit comedy film starring Kim Carrey. In the movie, Cameron plays the beautiful and charming Kim Carrey's girlfriend. Although her first appearance was as a sexy girl, she had already managed to get her foot in the door. She went on to star in The Last Supper, Love in Minnesota, The Guessing Game, and Surfacing. Especially in "Love in Minnesota", Cameron played a young girl caught in an emotional tangle with two brothers, and her accurate expression of the heroine's delicate and contradictory emotions left a deep impression on the audience. Gradually, she shed her image as a sexy star and allowed others to discover her outstanding acting ability.
What really catapulted Cameron to the top tier of actresses was "The Bride Is Not Me". It was a comedy film in which Cameron played Yoshimi, a youthful and kind-hearted young lady from a wealthy family. Jaime and Mike are in love and ready to get married, but Mike's ex-girlfriend, Juliana, tries to stop the couple from getting married. Juliana is played by the famous Julia Roberts. Cameron and Julia play a pair of jealous rivals in the movie, while the two are also on a par in terms of acting. Compared with Julia's mature beauty, Cameron's youthful enthusiasm is more memorable. The Bride Is Not Me was finally a huge success, not only winning the 1997 U.S. summer box office, but also making Cameron Diaz one of the hottest stars in the business. She went on to star in "The Heartlander," and in 1998, the Farrelly brothers, famous comedy filmmakers, were ready to make "I'm Mad About Mary".
They recognized Cameron's comedic talent and recruited her to play the beloved heroine, Mary, as well as Cameron's boyfriend, Matt Dillon, for the lead role. It's a laugh-out-loud movie. The small-budget movie became a top ten hit at the box office last year, and Cameron's excellent performance was a guaranteed box office hit. Her next two films are "Not Before Marriage" with Christian Slater and "The Unseen Arena" with Camilla Belle.
In real life, Cameron is also someone who knows how to enjoy life. As a model, it's quite important to keep your body in shape, and instead of restricting her diet, Cameron is very particular about what she eats. After a full meal, she also likes to ride her bike and hang out in the city. For a busy actor, this is really a great way to relax after work. It also reflects Cameron's view: work hard and live easy.
