Catherine Zeta… Bones!
Posted on April 13th, 2010 at 9:11 am by Sean Borg
First Vic-bore-ria [Victoria] Beckham had us all fretting over her painfully thin frame, then just weeks ago Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle scared the vast majority of the British population by resembling a bag of bones, and now it seems Catherine Zeta Jones – dubbed ‘bones’ from now on is jumping on the skinny scooter and hitching a ride to, er… Skinny-ville!
It’s quite surprising considering she once hit out at media’s obsession with super-skinny women. Now she’s turned into one of them!
I reckon CZJ looks HOT, but reports have suggested she’s battled to control her weight for years; it can’t be healthy for a woman in her age bracket to constantly undergo such dramatic weight loss.
Stress related perhaps? Or just another celebrity following some silly trend…
The mother-of-two has had a lot on her plate of late. Her stepson Cameron Douglas is sentenced this week, which can’t be helping with her stress levels. She even wrote a letter to Manhattan’s Federal Court asking it to go easy on Cameron when the hammer falls.
Whatever the reason is, it hasn’t stopped the Welsh born beauty from winning over the critics in her Broadway debut. CZJ’s performance playing as Desiree in A Little Night Music has won rave reviews, with her performance being described as ‘luminous’ and ‘mesmerizing’.
That’s what we like to hear Catherine, but honestly, it wouldn’t be a bad idea between shows to nip over to Time Square and grab a burger every now and then. You could do with the extra calories love, trust me!
CZJ and Kirk stand up for Cameron

Catherine Zeta Jones and father-in-law Kirk Douglas have written letters to Manhattan’s Federal Court to ask it to go easy on [Michael's son] Cameron Douglas when it comes to sentencing him next week.
Cameron is facing up to ten years in prison for dealing methamphetamine and has struggled with drug addiction for his entire adult life. He’s currently in prison awaiting sentencing and has been clean for 8 months.
In Catherine’s letter she wrote: “My stepson is a caring, considerate, worthy human being, but never the less, the disease, that for years he has tried to combat, did take over again. What is wrong, is wrong, but may all these positive attributes prevail, so that a facility that he is positioned in, will help rehabilitate him.”
93-year-old Kirk wrote that he made the trip from LA to New York to visit his grandson and has been taking responsibility for his actions.
He said: “He [Cameron] didn’t express any self-pity, nor did he ask for any. The only sorrow he expressed was for the trouble he had caused others. I’m convinced Cameron could be a fine actor… I hope I can see that happen before I die. I love Cameron.”
No letter from father Michael is included in the court record but he recently talked about his son’s drug addiction, calling it a ‘worst case scenario’ as well as alluding to the fact that he wasn’t there as much as he could have been in his sons’ life.
It’s a really sad situation. I hope Cameron gets the help he needs and manages to stay sober.
Catherine Dons Her Dancing Shoes!

Movie titan Michael Douglas has probably never lost himself in soul-searching reverie while listening to Beatles classic When I’m Sixty-Four; wondering as his 65th birthday looms if wife Catherine Zeta-Jones,39, will still be sending him a Valentine… because she’s more likely to choreograph a show-stopping routine than resort to Hallmark.
Yes, nothing says ‘I love you’ like donning a silver top hat and a thigh-skimming shift dress to reprise an Oscar-winning Chicago winning routine for your beloved’s AFI Achievement Award – and believe me, CZJ’s performance was ALL that jazz, as yours truly and the Culver City audience at the Sony Studios will attest to…
