This page will contain videos about Jamie Lee Curtis, as they become available.Jamie Lee CurtisJamie Lee Curtis, Baroness Haden-Guest (born November 22, 1958) is an American film actress born in Los Angeles, California. She is the daughter of Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh. She is known as a "scream queen" for arguably her most memorable role, that of Laurie Strode in the Halloween series (#'s I, II and 7 and 8). She has a sister named Kelly Curtis, who is also an actress. Jamie Lee Curtis has compiled a body of work which covers every type of genre, from comedy to drama to horror. She married the actor Christopher Guest in 1984, and became known as Lady Haden-Guest when her husband inherited the title of Baron Haden-Guest in 1996. Curtis and Guest have two adopted children, Annie and Thomas. Recent successful film roles for Curtis have included Disney's Freaky Friday (2003), opposite Lindsay Lohan. The movie was filmed at Palisades High School in Pacific Palisades, CA., nearby where Curtis and Guest make their home with their children. In time for the Holiday Season of 2004, Curtis starred opposite Tim Allen in Christmas with the Kranks. Today, Jamie Lee Curtis also takes time to support various philanthropic groups. Curtis was Guest of Honor at the 11th annual Gala and Fundraiser in 2003 for Women in Recovery, Inc., a Venice, CA-based non-profit organization offering a live-in, 12-Step program of rehabilitation for women in need. Past Honorees of this organization have included Sir Anthony Hopkins; the 2005 honoree will be Angela Lansbury. There is much speculation, which has sometimes even been alleged in high school and college biology courses, that Curtis was born an intersexual; but it is unknown whether this is an urban legend or fact. The supposition usually refers to androgen insensitivity syndrome. Facts that point to the likelihood of the rumor's truth is that Curtis underwent mysterious surgeries and "complications" shortly after her birth, as well as her unisex name. Things that suggest the rumor is untrue are that the media had reason to tarnish Leigh and Curtis' reputations at that time, since their careers were no longer hugely successful. Selected filmography

Drescher was born and raised in Queens, New York. The supposition usually refers to androgen insensitivity syndrome. She also had a role in the movie This Is Spinal Tap as Bobbie Fleckman. There is much speculation, which has sometimes even been alleged in high school and college biology courses, that Curtis was born an intersexual; but it is unknown whether this is an urban legend or fact. Drescher's first role in a major motion picture was a bit part in Saturday Night Fever. Past Honorees of this organization have included Sir Anthony Hopkins; the 2005 honoree will be Angela Lansbury. She wrote about her experiences in the book Cancer Schmancer. Curtis was Guest of Honor at the 11th annual Gala and Fundraiser in 2003 for Women in Recovery, Inc., a Venice, CA-based non-profit organization offering a live-in, 12-Step program of rehabilitation for women in need. Drescher was also diagnosed with uterine cancer, and it was eventually treated to remission. Today, Jamie Lee Curtis also takes time to support various philanthropic groups. She was paraphrased as saying in an interview with Larry King that although it was a very negative experience, she found ways to chalk her experience into something positive; she saw her rapist sent to prison. In time for the Holiday Season of 2004, Curtis starred opposite Tim Allen in Christmas with the Kranks.. It took her many years to overcome this obstacle, and it took her even longer to admit this to the press. The movie was filmed at Palisades High School in Pacific Palisades, CA., nearby where Curtis and Guest make their home with their children. In 1985, robbers ransacked Drescher's apartment and raped her and one of her girlfriends. Recent successful film roles for Curtis have included Disney's Freaky Friday (2003), opposite Lindsay Lohan. In her autobiography Drescher discusses the fact that this is, in fact, her real voice, and the many voice lessons she has had to take to overcome it for movie auditions (only to have it end up being her trademark). Curtis and Guest have two adopted children, Annie and Thomas. Her voice is a combination of a high nasal pitch and a New York/Jewish accent that many people find unpleasant. She married the actor Christopher Guest in 1984, and became known as Lady Haden-Guest when her husband inherited the title of Baron Haden-Guest in 1996. She is most famous for her somewhat autobiographical role as the nanny Fran Fine in The Nanny.
