Penélope was named People en Espanol's Best-Dressed Woman of 2008. Her boyfriend, actor Javier Bardem, placed No.2 in the Best-Dressed Men of 2008 list. (edit) Penélope has a the number 883 tattooed above her right ankle. (edit) Penélope's favorite director is Baz Luhrmann. (edit) Penelope aspired to be a dancer and spent nine years training in classical ballet at the Conservatorio Nacional and another three years with a private trainer before switching to acting. (edit) Penélope has worked on three films with director Pedro Almodovar: All About My Mother, Live Flesh and Volver. (edit)

Penélope: I have a little bit of an addiction to work. So I'm always hiding in the bathroom with my BlackBerry to work when I'm on holiday. (edit) Penélope: (defending herself after her and Salma Hayek posed together for a provocative shot showing Pené grabbing Salma's bum) You know what they've been saying because of that picture? We are like sisters and we have some sense of humour ... We did that in front of 100 photographers and the story now is that apparently we are lovers. I'm sorry to say, that is not the case! (edit) Penelope: If one day I have a family, maybe I would want to raise my family in Europe but I am not thinking about that now. I want to keep working as much as I do now. Now I am working a lot, it is very intense. So in the future I will work but maybe have more time for other things, three quarters or half of what I do now. (edit) Penelope: I want to be remembered as somebody that tried to respect her integrity as an artist and as a person. And I don't want to be in any box. I don't want to be one thing. (edit) Penelope: (her own mother provided inspiration for her role as Raimunda in Volver) My mum came to mind many times when I was preparing the character, her strength. She worked six days a week and still did everything for us, like lunch, dinner and of course the clothing. She was like a superwoman. (edit)
