Mini Biography

Zooey Deschanel was born in 1980 into a showbiz family. Her father, Caleb Deschanel is an Academy Award-nominated cinematographer (perhaps most notably for The Passion of the Christ (2004)) and her mother, Mary Jo Deschanel (née Weir) is an actress who starred in "Twin Peaks" (1990). Driven from an early age to become a successful actress, Zooey got her big break aged 17 playing a model in TV sitcom "Veronica's Closet" (1997). She got her first film role the following year in Mumford (1999), which prompted her to quit university to pursue acting full-time. Mostly thanks to a role in Cameron Crowe's popular biopic, Almost Famous (2000), Zooey's rise to fame has been steadily increasing as the 21st century wears on. Her distinctive acting style found her critical acclaim in 2003 when she was voted Best Actress at the Mar Del Plata Film Festival for her role in David Gordon Green's All the Real Girls (2003). She also gained a Best Female Lead nomination (for All the Real Girls (2003)) at the following year's Independent Spirit Awards, but lost out to Charlize Theron.

Zooey is often compared to golden era Hollywood starlets and is also a talented singer. She has said in interviews that she believes her singing ability was pivotal in gaining the role of Jovie in Elf (2003). She also sang (and acted) in the Disney-produced musical, Once Upon a Mattress (2005) (TV).

Personal Quotes

I love old music, old movies, screwball comedies, vintage clothes and basically I'm an old-fashioned gal.
I don't want to go to another rollercoaster ride of a movie. If I want that, I'll go to Magic Mountain. I'm really interested in the young directors that are doing different things in cinema. I think the movies people will hold onto are the Rushmore (1998)s and the Being John Malkovich (1999)s. Those are the kind of films I want to do; that's what I'm passionate about.
I'm blessed with a lot of energy and stamina. I can't stand sitting still. I went to a spa once with my mom and I was like, "Get me out of here!'"
I don't really like to go out very much. I'm not scandalous. I'm not, like, in this to be famous. I also find it so embarrassing when you read about people and it's like they were so trashed at Skybar and stumbling around. I don't want to be that person. That's just so embarrassing to have that written about you.
I'm the worst at picking what movies are going to do well. I have no idea. I'm really surprised if a movie I like does well.
For a while I was like, "Oh my God, anyone that would release an album as an actor is the biggest fool ever", but I happened to have sung all my life before I was an actor. Why are musicians allowed to become actors? No one ever gives them flack for that.
I can do the Chipmunk voice and impressions of Judy Garland, Debbie Reynolds and Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music (1965). I could probably do the whole Von Trapp family.
It's an addiction. I love clothes. I like to go down Melrose and look in all the windows and I go to different flea markets. I have lots of costumes. You never know when you're going to have to dress up like a milkmaid from the 1600s.
I was labeled a 'theatre type' in high school, which made it hard to fit in and feel part of things.
People say: "Oh yeah, jobs for the boys". I wish. You've got to fight even harder with a family like mine.
You have to keep reminding yourself it's not about money, because there is a lot of money to be made in this business if you're willing to do whatever. But that's not what I'm thinking about. I continue only to take movies because I love the script and because I really want to do it.
I don't think I'm very much like anyone else, really. I'm sure there are aspects of other actors that I share, but I don't see anybody else and go, "Damn, they stole my thing". I'm me, and I like that there are people who have an appreciation for that.
I don't want to be a babe. I don't want vanity to ever get in the way, because I think to maintain that, you have to be aware of yourself all the time, and that gets in the way of acting. My job's not to be the beautiful person. My job is to be the best actor I can be.
I always choose roles that are, you know, hopefully different from the last role. I don't wanna do the same thing over and over again because that's, well, first of all that's no fun.
It's a lot harder to do an ensemble because your energy is going in so many different places, and you have to cover everybody. You have to sort of split your attention.
[interview in "In Style" magazine, 9/06] The first album I ever got was "Like a Virgin". It was during the Iran Contra conflict-I thought she was saying, "Like a Persian".
Always the aim for me is making people feel like they are not alone. That's just the greatest feeling.

Zooey Deschanel is World's 1st Programmer?





Aktris multitalenta yang paling dikenal sebagai pemeran Summer dalam (500) Days of Summer; Zooey Deschanel dirumorkan akan memerankan programmer wanita pertama di dunia; tokoh historis Ada Lovelace dalam film garapan terbaru Bruce Beresford (Driving Miss Daisy, Tender Mercies, dan Crimes of the Heart), yang berjudul Enchantress of Numbers. Sebagai informasi, Ada Lovelace adalah putri dari Lord Byron, yang setelah berstatus sebagai istri ahli matematika Charles Babbage, tercatat sebagai orang pertama yang menciptakan sebuah program bagi suaminya itu desain mesin penganalisis; yang dalam perkembangannya kita kenal sebagai komputer. Dikarenakan kehebatannya itulah Ada dijuluki sebagai ratu angka. Kita nantikan saja apakah rumor itu akan menjadi kenyataan atau tidak. Sejauh ini aktris yang juga berkiprah di dunia tarik suara di bawah nama She& Him ini dijadwalkan akan tampil di film bergenre komedi Your Highness bersama James Franco dan Natalie Portman source : megindo.net

5 Hal tentang Zooey Deschanel (fashion)
1) "Aku suka berpakaian lalu pergi berbelanja, tapi aku tidak mengikuti trends. Gayaku tidak menentu antara centil dan feminim. Saat aku kecil, aku terlalu girly yang tidak menyukai celana panjang. Aku hanya mengenakan pakaian pesta (gaun mungkin:red) setiap waktu dengan sepatu kulit asli."

2) "Saat disekolah, anak-anak sedang ngetren gaya berpakaian hippy dari toko-toko murah (sejenis toko baju 2nd gitu paling:red), dan orang-orang juga masih menyukai pakaian yang mereka buat sendiri. Sedangkan aku selalu nyaman memakai pakaian yang old-fashioned. Aku mencoba melakukan sedikit penelitian sebelumnya untuk menemukan gaya vintage yang aku inginkan (giggle)."

3) "Tau apa yang pantas untukmu. Sekarang aku mengerti tentang proporsi dan mengenali bentuk yang terlihat bagus dengan bentuk tubuhku. Aku tidak akan lepas dari gaya kelasik. Aku tidak pergi untuk ke fashion show atau memperhatikan apa yang orang pakai hari ini."

4) Karpet merah dan hal-hal yang berbau premiere dan pesta mungkin hal terakhir faforitku didalam kerjaanku. Aku melakukannya, karena aku cinta dunia peran. Semua hal yang berbau glamor, tapi glamor sendiri bagiku hanyalah seperti sirkus.

5) Kamu tidak perlu memakai pakaian mahal untuk terlihat sempurna. Hidup di hollywood berarti ada banyak bintang anak-anank di sekolahku (hollywood) - tapi tidak semuanya berada. Tidak keren memamerkan seberapa banyak uang yang kamu gunakan untuk membeli baju.
