Girl Crush

Anne Hathaway. Love her or loathe her. I love her. She is different to other actresses. She doesn't seem to be a show pony or diva or tart it up too much.

Rachel Getting Married is one of my favourite movies. I was stunned after watching it. Hathaway was brilliant in it. Other movies I've enjoyed include Alice in Wonderland, Brokeback Mountain, The Devil Wears Prada and Get Smart. I cannot wait to see her latest movie 'Love and Other Drugs'. Bride Wars was terrible, but Kate Hudson was a train wreck to watch.

She is hosting the 83rd Academy Awards in January next year which was an interesting announcement, I wonder how she will do. That role is usually reserved for much older and respected Hollywood anchors like Billy Crystal, Steve Martin and Whoopi Goldberg.

Girl Crush

I utterly love Winona Ryder. So does my husband. He's always had a crush on her.


I loved watching her in movies such as BeetleJuice, Heathers, Edward Scissorhands, Mermaids, Reality Bites and Girl Interrupted.

 

She was engaged to Johnny Depp for 3 years and has also dated Matt Damon and other musicians.

Although she took a 5 year hiatus from acting, she is back now and stars in 'Black Swan' with Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis to be released early next year.

Girl Crush

In another life, I would love to look like this. Like Penelope Cruz. She is just so incredibly stunning and sexy.

I adore her as an actress and activist. I have a huge crush on her and so does my husband.

Her role as Mirtha Jung in "Blow" with Johnny Depp was brilliant. I also like Vanilla Sky, Gothika, Vicky Cristina Barcelona and her cameo in Sex in the City 2 was brief but excellent. I'm yet to see 'Nine' but I heard she was the star of the film.

She speaks four languages: Spanish, Italian, French and English.

Her husband and co-star in Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Javier Bardem is an absolute god too. According to recent tabloids, they are expecting a child together, due early March 2011.

Penelope is currently filming 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' with Johnny Depp and the film is due for release next year. I cannot wait.

Another addition to my girl crush file is Natalie Portman.


While she has only been in a handful of movies that I like, I find her beautiful, engaging and sexy.


Portman has professed an interest in foreign languages since childhood and has studied French, Japanese, German, and Arabic. A vegan and passionate advocate for animal rights and environmental causes, she spends alot of her time dedicated to helping those without voices, like animals and disadvantaged children.


I loved her performance in 'Garden State' so much that it started my own love affair with the band 'The Shins'. And the film 'Closer' is a favourite of both mine and James. She is so utterly stunning in that movie. And she proved she can hold her own against a Hollywood heavyweight like Julia Roberts.


Anywhere But Here, Where The Heart Is are great films too. She stars in an upcoming thriller called Black Swan, where she plays a ballet dancer in the production Swan Lake in New York City.

In terms of girl crushes, I have a massive, huge, gigantic one on Zooey Deschanel. She is adorable, devine, wonderful, delightful, talented, sweet and I want to know her. She sings, she acts, she is multi-talented. Her band, She and Him are a super cool, folk indie duo, check them out here.
