Jamie Lee Curtis: "I want to be older" (PHOTOS)

short biography

Jamie Lee Curtis was born in November 1958 in Hollywood Los Angeles in the family of famous American actors Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh. At the age of 4, the girl’s father left the family, leaving his daughters in the care of their mother. The lives of his daughters did not bother Tony Curtis, who from now on helped his ex-wife with money, but did not want to meet with the children at all.

Growing up as a calm and obedient child, the future actress graduated from Connecticut College and entered Stockton University, deciding in the future to devote her life to social work. Without even studying for one semester, Jamie Lee dropped out of school, confirming her decision to pursue an acting career.

The girl’s talent was considered by Carpenter, who offered 20-year-old Curtis a role in his “Halloween.” The director and the public liked the debut role of the young actress so much that her first work was followed by participation in “Fog” and “Terror Train”. Participation in 3 horror films assigned the role of “Lady of Horror” to the actress, which did not last long.

In 1983, Jamie Lee appeared as the prostitute Ophelia in the comedy Trading Places, and then played the role of the protagonist's seductress in the legendary A Fish Called Wanda. The thin, but incredibly sexy actress, to the delight of fans, successfully showed off her body in “The Perfection”, and then in “Blue Steel” and “Love Letters”.

In 1992, the actress again starred in a comedy, appearing in “My Girl,” which did not receive much recognition from fans due to its lyrical plot, which was so uncharacteristic of a comedy.

1994 brought Jamie Lee back to world fame, which came with the role of the wife of Arnold Schwarzenegger, who saves the world, in the action comedy film True Lies. Her luxurious Harriet with her magnificent striptease captivated not only her husband, but also all the men of the world, and the actress herself was awarded a Golden Globe for her work.

In 1998 and 2002 Jamie Lee appeared in the 2nd and 3rd parts of Halloween, and in 2003 she again captivated fans by transforming from a luxurious woman into the image of a wild teenager for Freaky Friday.

Since 2020, the movie star has been given the title of “Queen of Horror,” which came along with filming in the television project of the same name, where Curtis played the role of a school principal, famous for her sharp, piercing scream at the sight of something very scary.

Since 2020, Jamie Lee has appeared in several Halloween sequels and also starred in:

• In "Knives Out";
• In the "Reception Room".

Biography

Jamie Lee Curtis is an American actress who gained the greatest popularity and demand in two completely different and even opposite genres: horror films and comedies.

As a thriller actress, Jamie Lee Curtis received the title of “scream queen” and appeared in the famous Halloween franchise and in the films Terror Train, The Fog, School Ball and others. As a comedic actress, Lee Curtis realized herself in the films “Freaky Friday”, “Trading Places”, “A Fish Called Wanda”, “You Again” and others.

Actress Jamie Lee Curtis

The combination of these two roles of the actress became a role in the series “Scream Queens”, filmed in the genre of comedy with black humor and parody of horror films.

Actress Jamie Lee Curtis was born on November 22, 1958 in America. And not just anywhere, but in Los Angeles, in an acting family. Fate itself predetermined her profession. Jamie has Jewish, Danish and Hungarian blood in his veins.

Jamie Lee Curtis in his youth

It would seem that childhood in an acting family should be bright and full of impressions, but for Jamie it turned out differently. When she was 4 years old, her parents divorced. Jamie and her older sister stayed with their mother. The girls' mother soon remarried.

Jamie Lee Curtis grew up as a quiet and calm girl, did well at school, and did not play pranks. After graduating from high school, she went to college in Connecticut, and then to the Faculty of Social Work at the University of Stockton. True, she only studied at the university for a semester. By this time, Jamie had finally become convinced that social work was not her calling. She wanted to become an actress.

Figure parameters and appearance

Jamie Lee Curtis (photos of the hot actress became a real decoration of the posters for the film “Perfect”, where the star appeared in the role of a fitness trainer) has always been distinguished by a luxurious, incredibly sexy figure, extravagantly combined with a short hairstyle and a slight brutality imparted by irregular facial features.

Guided by her unconventional appearance, the actress tried to choose the roles of strong, self-confident, dangerous women, and when she played fitness trainer Jesse from Perfect, Jamie Lee captivated fans with her stunning figure so much that she became a real fitness star at the end of the last century.

Actress parameters:

Despite her age, the actress still looks great and continues to amaze with her ageless appearance and ideal shape, which she carefully maintains through sports training and proper nutrition.

Plastic

Jamie Lee Curtis (photos of a hot actress dancing a striptease increased the ratings of “True Lies” several times) has always openly admitted her good attitude towards plastic surgery and noted that she has repeatedly tried various procedures, including liposuction of fat from the abdominal area and Botox .

In her interviews, the star also claimed that all the adjustments made to her appearance did not help her at all, and after the operations she began to look and feel much worse.

Jamie Lee noted that modern plastic surgery is a real drug that is very easy to get hooked on. According to her, after she pumped out excess fat from her abdomen, it turned out that there was a lot of it in other places. The actress also admitted that during liposuction, doctors, on their own initiative, changed her legs.

Now the actress is trying to do without plastic surgery, noting that she was not at all pleased with the results of the operation, and after it she began to look much worse. The star also hates the term “age-related,” noting that aging is a completely natural process that should not be feared and calmly displays her wrinkles and slightly sagging eyelids for everyone to see.

How has it changed with age?

At 62 years old, Jamie Lee Curtis looks luxurious, captivating fans not only with her beautiful appearance, but also with her ideal figure. Unchanged in her love for short hair, the actress was able to maintain her previous body measurements, only adding slightly to her waist and hips with age.

The always elegant actress has acquired a small number of wrinkles over the years, which do not spoil her unique appearance at all, but only add some elegance to her image. Answering questions from journalists about the secret of her youth, the actress states that her appearance is the result of proper nutrition and exercise, and not the merits of plastic surgery.

The star of “Freaky Friday” and “True Lies” has repeatedly said that the result of the previously performed plastic surgery did not satisfy her at all, and if she now needed to appear in a swimsuit, she would have to resort to surgical correction again.

Cosmetology procedures

Jamie Lee Curtis (photos of hot actresses in swimsuits can be found on Livejournal, as well as on the star’s own Instagram) has repeatedly said that she hates going to beauty salons.

The actress is annoyed by the smell emanating from the aprons of the workers and from the drugs themselves and, in addition, she does not know what is in the composition of cosmetics, so she considers it stupid to apply something to the skin that she is not at all sure is safe.

The actress also does not consider it necessary to dye her gray hair, noting that the result obtained after dyeing always has a completely unnatural burnt, red tint. According to Jamie Lee, gray hair suits men and women amazingly, making them look like silver foxes.

Despite her dislike, Jamie Lee still tries to maintain her appearance as much as possible, with regular beauty treatments to help give her skin a radiant and well-hydrated appearance.

The list of procedures regularly performed by the actress includes:

• chemical peelings and microdermabrasion, allowing it to maintain youthful tissue;
• injections of hyaluronic acid, allowing her skin to look as healthy and hydrated as possible;
• ultrasonic facial cleansing.

Regarding botulinum toxin, Jamie Lee has repeatedly reported that she previously used it, but has been trying not to do so over the past few years.

Beauty secrets

Jamie Lee Curtis (the hot photos of the 42-year-old actress without retouching, makeup and in a sports swimsuit were intended to help women not be ashamed of their bodies and show that even Hollywood actresses do not have an ideal body) carefully takes care of her face and figure, although she does not loves to do this.

Skin care

The “Halloween” star considers any cosmetics to be more expensive than $10. The USA is a real scam, and the star trusts the classic Nivea cream to maintain the beauty of her face, calling it the only product that she uses twice a day.

Hair

The actress is constantly dissatisfied with her hair, since it does not want to be styled the way its owner wants. In order not to bother with hairstyles, the actress always wears a short haircut and never dyes her hair, believing that gray hair suits both women and men.

Jamie Lee calls the ideal hair care product a homemade mask made from quail eggs, champagne, bananas and kiwi, which she applies several times a week before washing her hair.

Opinion about beauty

The actress never tires of repeating that real “Hollywood” beauty is nothing more than a myth. Jamie Lee herself believes that she has an ugly hip shape, very large breasts and back fat, but this does not bother her at all. The actress actively tries to promote her position by regularly posting unretouched photographs of herself without manicure or makeup.

Sport

The “Queen of Horror” constantly monitors her figure and, with a height of 175 cm, weighs about 68 kg, and also constantly tries to maintain the beauty of her legs, which she previously insured for $1 million. USA.

Jamie Lee considers physical training a necessary evil that she is forced to do every day.

The actress does not have a regular course of exercises, since she quickly gets bored of doing one thing. At one time, the actress was fond of cycling and aerobics, and then switched to swimming, yoga and roller skating. Before each new film, the actress begins intense physical exercise and quite seriously believes that vanity forces her to do the exercises.

So, before working in Perfect, where the actress had to appear as a fitness trainer, Jamie Lee spent many hours in the gym, and also went swimming every day, trying to keep her body in perfect shape.

Nutrition

In addition to constant training, the actress helps to maintain a healthy weight by eating a vegetarian diet. At home, Curtis has special “control” pants, with which she tries to control her own weight. Jamie Lee notes that if her pants fit tightly on her, she immediately goes on a diet and intensifies her training course.

The actress loves sweets and absolutely cannot imagine her life without sugar. According to Jamie Lee herself, she usually starts to feel tired in the middle of the day, and to cheer herself up, she definitely needs to eat something sweet.

Curtis carefully monitors his diet and if one day he allows himself a lot of high-calorie food, then the next he tries to eat only salads.

The actress's usual diet:

Adhering to proper nutrition, Jamie Lee completely eliminated salt from her diet and notes that she simply does not understand people who kill their bodies every day with the help of food.

The actress is an excellent cook and loves fruit juices, as well as homemade lemon pie.

On the set of Knives Out, Jamie Lee tried to escape from the company of actors in the kitchen, where she became friends with the owner of the house. For a friend’s sick son, Curtis once prepared a green salad with croutons, the smell of which was so liked by the film crew that from then on Jamie Lee was forced to constantly toast bread in her free time.

Jamie Lee Curtis: "I want to be older" (PHOTOS)

Actress Jamie Lee Curtis achieved the title “Queen of Horror” very soon after she first starred in the film “Halloween.”

Then the “horror” imperceptibly transformed into a “scream”, and the beautiful actress began to be menacingly called the “Queen of Scream”. Meanwhile, it is known that in real life she is... a terrible coward. Moreover, Jamie never hid this. As well as the fact that the holiday Halloween itself hates for its “dead” symbolism. “The thought of wearing a scary mask gives me chills,” says Jamie. She is afraid not only of horror films, but also of her roles in films, which is why she never watches them. But that’s how her cinematic fate turned out.

Jamie Lee Curtis

After the first “Halloween,” she was literally inundated with offers of roles where the heroines had to overcome the most terrible obstacles. Just look at her filming in the film “Virus,” which lasted more than seven months on the ship. There, the brave heroine Jamie had to save a Russian ship with American crash victims from an alien invasion. She suffered even more adversity while filming Laurie Strode's latest adventures in the film Halloween: Twenty Years Later. But after it was all over, she was able to breathe out easily and forever get rid of the nightmares that tormented her at night. And I decided to slowly end my “nightmare” career.

Today she can finally calmly do whatever her heart desires. This period of her life did not in any way disturb the harmony in which she was accustomed to existing. She never did anything that seemed unnatural and contrary to her inner sense of self. As a matter of principle, she doesn’t dye her hair, which has already turned completely gray, and refuses uncomfortable heels. She is never seen wearing a lot of jewelry and uses very little cosmetics.

At the same time, Jamie is not a feminist at all. She lives happily with her husband, actor and composer Christopher Guest, who, in addition to the proud title of the husband of the “Scream Queen,” is also an English lord. Accordingly, Jamie is a real baroness. The husband is 10 years younger than Jamie, which did not stop the couple from adopting two adopted children. Daughter Annie is 24 years old, and son Tom is 15 years old.

Jamie explains the secret of her eternal youth by saying that not only is she not afraid of aging, but, on the contrary, she just likes getting older. “I want to be older,” says the actress. “I feel great now, better than I did when I was 20.” I am stronger and smarter than then, I eat exclusively healthy food, and I am full of energy. I finally understood what real beauty is.”

Jamie Lee Curtis

Of course, the actress's ideal form costs her some work. She constantly trains in the gym and limits herself to food. However, she does not have a rigid lesson plan. After becoming interested in aerobics, she also intensively took up jogging. Then cycling became her primary activity, followed by yoga and ballet. Lately she has been seriously playing tennis. It was this sport that replaced her long-term passion for roller skating. At 53 years old, the actress weighs 55 kg and is 175 cm tall.

What is most striking about her appearance is her striking youthfulness, which is expressed both in her ideal posture and in her luminous, fiery gaze and proud, trim profile.

Jamie Lee Curtis

The general public knows nothing about major facelift operations, but it is a fact that Jamie regularly spends at least an hour a week in the beauty salon. In the salon, the beauty undergoes hardware facial cleansing procedures, moisturizing masks, and receives hyaluronic acid injections every few months. At home, Jamie makes her own masks from tomato pulp and rich sour cream and always uses a humidifier.

She has “secret control pants” that, when they become too tight, tell her to go on a stricter diet. And Jamie obediently refuses fatty meat, his favorite lemon pie and bread. For breakfast she starts eating crushed wheat grains with skim milk, for lunch - spinach, and no later than 19 o'clock she has dinner with a vegetable salad with the same olive oil.

Jamie Lee Curtis and Sigourney Weaver

Probably, all these rules of life allowed the beautiful actress to make a real splash recently when she posed half-naked for a famous women's magazine, and to do it solely for her own pleasure. The actress has absolutely no need for PR today. She is engaged in professional photography and writes books. Recently her fourth work was published with the self-explanatory title “My Grandmother’s Suitcase.”

“Since I have little interest in the prospect of growing old in front of the camera, I would easily cede my Queen of Horror crown to someone from the youth,” the actress laughs. But who will be able to carry it with the same dignity?

Rumors of hermaphroditism

One of the long-standing Hollywood rumors that caused the actress many unpleasant moments was the alleged androgyny of Jamie Lee Curtis, which allegedly arose due to the fact that the star was born with two sets of genitals.

The source of the rumors was anthropology professor William O. Beeman, who published his scandalous article, which was offensive to the actress, in which he cited Jamie Lee herself as a clear example of a transgender star.

To prove his words, the professor cited:

• “genderless” name of the actress, suitable for both boys and girls;
• the star’s slightly “masculine” appearance;
• the actress's love for short hairstyles;
• playing the roles of “strong women”;
• the actress has no children.

As additional food for rumors, Jamie Lee herself avoided answering a direct question about her androgyny, who indignantly answered reporters that she had children.

The unfounded legend, which caused the actress many unpleasant moments, was refuted by the star’s mother, the star of Hitchcock thrillers Janet Leigh, who said that she chose the name for her child long before the birth of her daughter. The actress’s words were also confirmed by family friends.

Personal life

For more than 35 years, the actress has been happily married to the reporter, as well as the English lord and baron Chris Guest, whom she married in 1984, and at the age of 40 and after 15 years of marriage they received the status of baroness.

The couple lives in an old suburb of Los Angeles, has two adopted children, Anna and Tom, and is looking forward to the birth of grandchildren from their recently married daughter.

Born into a family of famous actors, Jamie Lee was well acquainted with the mores of Hollywood from childhood and always tried to do everything not to become like most of her fellow actors.

Curtis worked on herself for many years, trying to avoid the possibility of becoming addicted to alcohol or drugs and led a very modest lifestyle by Hollywood standards, carefully avoiding noisy parties and scandals.

The main dream of the actress, which she diligently brought to life, was a strong family and children, as well as writing children's books in her free time from filming.

Secrets of youth from Jamie Lee Curtis

Now movie diva Jamie Lee Curtis is 59, but she still amazes everyone around with her youthfulness. What is her secret? In continuous, regular work on yourself.

An ideal figure is the result of training in the gym, cycling, yoga and ballet classes. By the way, in recent years, Jamie Lee Curtis has also taken up tennis seriously.

In salons, the actress undergoes hardware facial cleansing and moisturizing masks. Once every couple of months, Jamie Lee Curtis injects the miraculous hyaluronic acid.

Movies

Jamie had talent, so she was not surprised when director Carpenter invited her to star in the film “Halloween.” This was in 1978, when the girl had just turned 20 years old. Her debut was so successful that the director invited her to the next film, “The Fog.” Then there was filming in the project “Terror Train”. Three roles in a row in horror films was enough for Lee Curtis to gain a reputation as the “Lady of Horror.” Fortunately, she did not remain in this role for long.

Jamie Lee Curtis in the movie Trading Places

In 1983, Jamie appeared in the comedy Trading Places, and in 1988 she played in the film A Fish Called Wanda. The actress was no less brilliant in comedic roles than in horror films. In “Trading Places” Jamie played the prostitute Ophelia, and in “A Fish Called Wanda” she played a heartbreaking seductress who demonstrates the wonders of ingenuity and resourcefulness in the thief business.

Skinny, short-haired Jamie Lee Curtis exudes sexual energy from the screen. This is especially felt in the film “Perfection,” where the actress played a fitness trainer. Before filming, she tortured herself for six months with training, swimming, and getting rid of extra pounds. Then there was a new image of a policewoman in the film “Blued Steel”, the role of the editor of a large radio station and others. Jamie was convincing in each of these images.

And yet viewers are accustomed to seeing her in comedic roles. In 1992, the film “My Girl” starring Lee Curtis was released. The film crew hoped for success, but the lyrical plot, which leaned more toward drama, disappointed fans of the actress’s work.

Jamie Lee Curtis in the movie "Halloween 2"

The name of the series comes from the name of the classic role of actresses in horror films. A “scream queen” is a victim who is chased by a monster or maniac throughout the film, and whose main duty is to scream loudly and shrilly at the sight of scary things in the script. By the way, Jamie Lee Curtis, who starred in the horror series “Halloween,” has proven herself in this role.

Jamie Lee Curtis in the movie Freaky Friday

The first season of the series takes place on campus, in the prestigious Kappa Kappa Tau sorority, where bloody murders occur. The inhabitants of this house are glamorous and rich girls led by the bitchy Chanel (Emma Roberts). The main activity of the club is to select fashionable things for themselves, fulfill Chanel's whims and mock less successful girls.

The life of the club changes with the arrival of more independent members, as well as with the appearance of a murderer in the house. The heroine Jamie Lee Curtis is trying to calm down the troubled house and find the killer so as not to lose her own directorial position, while the girls consider Munch to be the main suspect. Katie Munch regularly appears in the plot, and, according to the authors, the main script was originally written for the heroines of Lee Curtis and Roberts.

Jamie Lee Curtis in the series "Scream Queen"

The finale of the first season fully reveals the characters and completes the storyline, so the second season, which started in September 2020, has little to do with the first. In this regard, “Scream Queens” repeats the structure of another famous horror series, “American Horror Story.” The only difference is that “AIU” transfers only the actors from plot to plot, while “Queens” assigns the characters’ personalities to them.

The second season takes place in the hospital, which was bought by Dean Kathy Munch and is conducting experimental research there. Chanel and her henchmen work as nurses in the hospital, and, as in the first season, brutal murders begin in the hospital.
