Penelope Cruz on the Cover of Madame Figaro – January 2022 Issue

Penelope Cruz is a striking star in Madame Figaro‘s January 2022 issue. The Spanish ballerina was born in the northern outskirts of Madrid. In the 2000s, she was the companion of Tom Cruise (an affair that almost everyone has forgotten), a love affair that led her to Hollywood, where she shot a few films culminating in an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, received in 2009 for Vicky Cristina Barcelona, by Woody Allen. On the beach of Dubai, we evoke with her the strength of the themes dear to Almodóvar, motherhood, transgression, family, and social pressure. Penelope Cruz won the Volpi Cup for Best Actress at Venice – and there is talk of her for a nomination at the next Oscar. As a Chanel ambassador, she is living the dream. As a child, she was collecting images of the models of this prestigious label and wanted to meet Karl. Virginie Viard, who succeeded him, took over the house brilliantly. “She understands women’s desires and creates chic, elegant collections with rock and roll elements,” Penelope said.
