Seven years ago, this actress came to Los Angeles for the first time and the only phrases she could say in English were “How are you?” and “I want to work with Johnny Depp.” Recently, she became the first Spanish actress to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and unveiled another with her husband on the Spanish Walk of Fame “La Calle de Las Estrellas” in Madrid. She is Team BlackBerry and joined the league of celebrity mothers this past January.
Who is it? Behold – the lovely Penelope Cruz!
According to Mail Online, Penelope and husband actor Javier Bardem attended the ceremony with good friend director Pedro Almodovar and are two of La Calle’s 25 inaugural stars. Other stars in the “top 25” include actor Antonio Banderas, singer Julio Iglesias and tenor Placido Domingo.
Penelope, however, is humble as ever. “I feel I have won the biggest lottery, she says. I’m doing what I love as my job and I am so grateful for the things that I have.
I never forget to have a house and food on your plate is not normal for many people.”
Undoubtedly, this sense of awareness is what makes her not only an excellent actress but wonderful mother and friend. Dream co-star Johnny Depp, who Penelope has worked with twice, agrees.
“She’s an inconceivably phenomenal mommy, which I’ve witnessed firsthand, and it’s pretty incredible,” Johnny said to People last April. “She’s as loyal and true a friend as anyone could ever dream of and I’m very privileged to be able to have her in my life.”
