Penélope Cruz
Driving
A childhood trauma has left the actress with a fear of getting behind the wheel.
“My sister was run over by a car in front of me when I was eight or nine,” Cruz, 49, recently told Elle magazine. “It’s a great trauma, because I saw her losing consciousness. And I was numb in the hospital, telling people, ‘Oh, my sister just got run over by a car.’ ”
Thankfully, her little sister ended up being just fine. Mónica Cruz, 46, is now a successful actress and dancer in Spain.
