Revered as a style icon, she's especially well-known for wearing stunning gowns. Let's celebrate her birthday by reminiscing about some of her best red carpet looks over the years. 2012 Oscars The Spanish siren walked the red carpet at the 2012 Oscars wearing a gorgeous off-the-shoulder blue Giorgio Armani gown that was simple yet incredibly elegant.

Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem Are No. 23 on Zimbio's 100 Hottest Celebrity Couples

Image
Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz made the top 25 on Zimbio's 100 Hottest Celebrity Couples list this year. The busy parents dropped a few spots from last year, but still landed at a commendable place. So what did it take for these two to come in at 23rd? Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz (FameFlynet Pictures) Well, these stars waste no time on small, unsuccessful projects. Instead, they go for broke once a year, if that. For instance, Ms. Cruz blew up the box office in 2011 with Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides , which grossed $1 billion worldwide. Before that, she'd been busy with motherhood and hadn't made a movie in two years. Bardem's only had three roles since nabbing an Oscar in 2007, but he just signed on to be the villain in the next James Bond flick, Skyfall . These two aren't the only successful, attractive stars on our list. Jennifer Lopez and her new man made their debut this year -- in the world and on the Hottest Couples list. The singer and...

Penelope Cruz Could Round Out the Cast of Ridley Scotts The Counselor

Image
Posted on Friday, April 20th, 2012 by Angie Han Is there any project in Hollywood that has the potential to boast a hotter cast than Ridley Scott s The Counselor ? Man of the moment Michael Fassbender was the first to board the project back in February , while Brad Pitt and Javier Bardem signed on last week. (Bardem beat out another shining star, Jeremy Renner , for his part.) And thats just the people who are actually locked in. Angelina Jolie s been circling for the past couple of weeks, and now Penlope Cruz is considering jumping in as well. More details after the jump.
