What do you think about the way the couple met?

When you know, you know ❤️

[@RebeccaLynnMusic]

It's not "lay"! Its "lee".

[@jhb61249]

Nothing in the family has been sane or normal.

[@Rocketjay12]

@@RebeccaLynnMusic really! He just can't stop saying "Lay". Had this guy never heard of her before? This kind of lack of preparation makes me cringe.

he is pronouncing it like weigh and sleigh....

[@Jp67-n6b]

I just said that out loud lol😢

And it’s pronounced “plad” not “played”

Right! I was saying that through this video. The narrator apparently was not alive when Janet Leigh was!

Jamie Lee is just one of those remarkable, real and raw people that is just herself and that is plenty more than enough. She is imperfectly perfect ❤

[@toldyou6150]

😂😂😂... If you knew her you wouldn't say that!!!! Jamie Lee Curtis was born with both male and female parts. She was born a man and woman. I would know. I dated her sister. That's why she's about it!!!

[@angelaholmes8888]

I'm glad that jaime made the decision to face her addiction and has been sober for years

[@RumourJuice]

It's so inspiring to see how open she was about her journey to recovery and her past with addiction. It gives hope to those who are struggling to know that it is possible to overcome an addiction.

[@suzieparis6821]

[@faststart1000]

Fascinating story and well done! It’s always good to see celebrities stick it out and make their marriage work, which is so very rare.

[@RumourJuice]

Yes, they do indeed.

I am rooting for her to win the Oscar and have followed her interviews this award season. One thing that I am not sure I believe is that during her addiction years "nobody knew". 5 vicodin and a glass of wine will most surely change your behavior to a noticeable degree. Her husband is no dummy.

[@PeacePham1991]

She claimed to be a "controlled addict" and she hid it well so maybe she only took a strong dose when she was by herself

Great video! I wonder, could alot of the antipathy towards Curtis and people saying she did not deserve her Oscar win was because some of the transgender phobia her daughter faces was linked to Curtis because of her public support and love for her daughter and the LGBT community?

Curtis was a scene stealer in True Lies and Freaky Friday. I already have the other movie, The Fog. I first saw her in Halloween. I HAD to know if she played guitar in real life. She learned guitar for the Freaky Friday scene. That really was her playing backstage.

[@donnasherwood283]

Lots of people chose to adopt rather than pass on addictive personalities

They have a son. Their son has a mental illness. I feel deeply sorry for them all. It must be hard to have a child with mental illness. But you don't enable the mental illness. You try and work through it and hope your child becomes healed. Nothing good comes from coddling gender dysphoria. Just look at the rate of attempted suicide among children who are gender confused. Studies show that "transitioning" (which can never truly happen - you can't change a y chromosome to an X chromosome or vice-versa) does NOT reduce that attempted suicide rate. And getting there means probably becoming sterile and disfiguring your body.

if Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh were at their prime in the '80s and had Jamie Lee, with all the substance abuse and drama prevalent during those decades? Jamie Lee wouldn't be the woman she is today, she may not even be alive anymore 😢 that how DRAMATIC her parents were specially Tony Curtis. the Kardashians, The Hiltons and all those other drama llama celebs keeps using previous templates for thir controversies and it dates as far back as Old Hollywood, exactly the prime time of Jamie Lee's parents and childhood.

Five Vicodin? I don’t get a choice. I have inoperable degenerative disc disease and every pill I take is scrutinized!
