Camila (Kim is an abbreviation) was born third - before her there were two brothers, in late 1953, but not last - after her there were two more sisters. She was born into a family that was not rich, but not poor either - her father was a jazz musician (a very popular trend in those years) and later became a financial consultant when he realized that jazz was becoming a thing of the past, and her mother worked as a manicurist before there were too many children.
And the family was of strict Puritan (Christian) mores. There aren't many families like that left in the U.S. now, but in the 1940s to the mid-1960s, such families were the majority. Before every meal (breakfast, lunch and dinner) a prayer was read.... The children's attitude towards their parents was one of unquestioning obedience to their will.
It cannot be said that Kim wanted some kind of freedom in her childhood, but she did not realise much - she was a child. Nevertheless, her childhood could not be called pleasant in all respects. No one liked her at school and she had no friends. Her peers called her strange, she was shy and shy, but she did not study badly. She was a closed child. It was visible to such an extent that her mother had to turn to psychotherapists. It's hard to believe now, yes, because Kim was considered in the 1980s to be the successor to Marilyn Monroe herself.... in terms of how liberated she was in public. But that's all for later, but for now it's 1964.
However, the psychotherapist who came for counselling did not see anything particularly wrong with the child. He recommended that the parents take up a hobby of such a nature that would allow their daughter to feel natural in public.... The mother gave Camila to an American football cheerleading squad. There, within a year, Kamila was made into a person who is not afraid of crowds. For her, it was her first internal revolution.
But her mother was not much less strict and purposeful than her father, and therefore insisted that Kim continued to win the hearts of people. By the age of 16, Kim had completely transformed her appearance - so much so that she was considered a teenage beauty... although I personally never noticed it. although I personally never saw her (as a man) as the ideal of feminine beauty.... I was attracted to her in other ways - her psychology, a certain charisma in her behavior. And it did not matter what genre of film I watched with her participation ...
In 1971, Camila (at the age of just under 18 years) became the winner of the contest ‘Miss Georgia’, the very state in which she lived the first 18 years of her life. That wasn't enough for her mother, and she sent her off to win at the All-American level..... However, she couldn't win there (New York), but ... she was noticed and began to be offered work in various magazines, as a mannequin and a model for women's clothing types.... The work went on, brought even if not big, but enough money to live on....
But her mother had told her all these years that she could do so much more.... like the film industry, the Hollywood industry. Kim naturally had a good voice and a good sense of music - she inherited it, apparently, from her father .... Therefore, in New York at such a young age managed to get a job as a singer in several nightclubs ... This is in addition to her main job as a model for clothing magazines....
We don't know in detail how Camila got to Hollywood, but the year I was born - in 1976 - she abruptly changed her place of residence from the far east coast of the USA (in New York City) to the far west coast - in Los Angeles. But ... it was still not Hollywood with its tempting earnings and level of fame ....
It was small roles in TV series.... All the men around her (no matter what positions they held in the film and TV business) perceived her as a beautiful doll.... Hey personally was not enough. She remembered how strong (personally) her mother was. She didn't want to be just a pretty doll. She didn't want to be a second Marilyn Monroe.
However. let all the men look at her as a pretty doll. She'll help them. So she decided to do a shoot for Playboy magazine. But on her own terms. She chose her own photos and poses... That helped her a lot later on. The offers came pouring in from the heart of Hollywood.
She starred in several films, including the 1981 release ‘The Hard Country,’ but... nothing but the first marriage to Ron Britton (he worked as an artist - make-up artist), she did not acquire ... With Ron, by the way, she broke up after only 8 years ... in 1989... although their relationship became extremely complicated already from the period when she starred in the film ‘Nine and a Half Weeks) - this is 1986.... Why? Jealousy. Kim's career went up sharply, her popularity was literally off the charts, and her husband remained the same make-up artist ... It's a very complicated relationship. At least Kim had the sense not to have children with him.....
Kim has a serious crush on Alec Baldwin. I stress serious. It was no longer Ron's baby talk, even though he's 15 years older than Kim.... Age has nothing to do with it. It's about a person's mentality.
On the set of the 1991 film The Marrying Habit, Alec fell in love with Kim. Very seriously in love. At the end of this article, I'll give you a visualization... where Alec isn't acting, it's all grown up.
In 1991, Alec was a much bigger star in Hollywood than Kim. And he had a lot more money. And he was courting Kim, respectively, much more seriously .... But. Kim had bad memories of her family life. It's understandable. Nevertheless, the wedding (the second in Kim's life) took place in 1993. They lived a very happy marriage (it was Kim's best years) until they had a daughter, Airland - born on 23 October 1995. Since her birth, the relationship went downhill..... And despite all this she finally broke up with Alec only in 2002....
If it weren't for her daughter, Ireland, there's a good chance Kim wouldn't be alive today. All her attention after her high-profile divorce from Alec went to her daughter..... Now Kim is no longer worried about her daughter ... Now she can afford to relax a little and started writing - that is, what she thought about in her youth.
To conclude the article about Kim, she is an extremely versatile actress, who (because of her looks) has not been revealed to the end by the Hollywood bosses, which does them no honor.
