Penelope Cruz is a "worrier".

Despite earning millions from her glittering movie career, being considered one of Hollywood's most beautiful women and dating handsome actor Javier Bardem, the Spanish actress has to be busy all the time or she panics about her life.

She explained in an interview with Vanity Fair magazine: "I've always been a worrier. Since I was a little girl I've always felt that if I had a moment of peace I'd wonder, 'Are you sure you can afford to feel like this?' "

Penelope, 35, also revealed she learnt to act during her teenage years which were spent watching women being pampered in a beauty salon in her hometown of Alcobendas, Spain.

She said: "It was my first acting school. I would pretend to be doing my homework, but I was really observing the women. I found their behavior mesmerizing - what they were hiding, how they left feeling a little different after they'd been helped to become a little more like whom they wanted to look like. They treated the place a little bit like a psychologist's office. They would share all their secrets."
