Penelope Cruz sizzles in show-stopping corset scene
May 15, 2009
Hollywood actress Penelope Cruz is set to turn up the heat this winter in new multi-million dollar movie Nine.
The 35-year-old Spanish beauty will light up our screens in November performing a sequence of burlesque inspired art in a satin corset with black lace, heels and pull-up stockings, reports reveal.
Commenting on the physical demands of burlesque dancing, Cruz revealed: "I was dancing in the dark with one spotlight on me, so I had to be extremely alert and focused.
"I couldn't stop crying, because I had been doing dance classes and rehearsals for so many months. It's in the film and it will be there for ever, but I don't get to do it again."
Other cast members include Oscar winners Daniel Day-Lewis, Nicole Kidman and Marion Cotillard, as well as Dame Judi Dench, Sophia Loren, Kate Hudson, Black Eyed Peas star Fergie.
Penelope has been dating former co-star, Academy Award winner Javier Bardem since 2007.
