Christina Hendricks Spices It Up at Home

When not sashaying around the ad agency on Mad Men, Christina Hendricks is likely to be found at home in her kitchen.
"We like to cook," the Emmy nominee, 36, tells PEOPLE about life with husband Geoffrey Arend. "We take turns being the chef and sous chef, and we are constantly looking up recipes and trying something new. It's very rare that we have the same dish twice in our house."
Speaking during the press junket for the new video game Need for Speed: The Run, in which she plays a character who manages outlaw street racers, Hendricks admits to spicing things up. "I like to cook Indian or Indian-inspired kinds of things," she says.
That taste for the tangy also extends to her entertainment.

After almost two years of marriage, Christina Hendricks is still learning it's all right to ask her husband to run to the grocery store.
"My husband does so much to help me, and I do as much to help him as possible," Hendricks, 36, told PEOPLE at the I Don't Know How She Does It premiere Monday in New York. "If one day he's off from work, he'll help me to do something – and vice versa."
Amid two busy careers, the actress and hubby Geoffrey Arend make it work by giving each other a little grace, Hendricks said during the Cinema Society-hosted after party at the Hudson Hotel.
"We've been doing a lot of traveling and different jobs and going back and forth," she said. "I don't freak myself out if something doesn't happen."

Did you even have to ask?
Christina Hendricks confirms in a new interview that, yes, her breasts are real. But she's perplexed that the question even comes up.
"It's so bizarre that people are constantly asking if my breasts are real or fake," the Mad Men beauty, 36, tells the Daily Mail's You magazine. "They're so obviously real that anyone who's ever seen or touched a breast would know."

Christina Hendricks knows what will be in her Christmas stocking – and it won't be a piece of coal.
The Mad Men star, 35, reveals that she's always gotten a personalized piece of fruit.
"My family always does a banana with your name on it in your stocking," she told PEOPLE recently at the opening of House of Walker, Johnnie Walker's private event space for the holidays, in New York City. "You carve [the name] in really lightly with a pencil, and a couple hours later it's nice and black. It sounds so gross but I promise it's really cute!"
So what's the origin of this tradition?

Which Hollywood A-Listers Could Pull Off Disney Villains?
Originally posted 03/31/2010 10:00AM
Glenn Close was sheer evil perfection as the live-action version of Cruella De Vil in the 1996 remake of the Disney classic 101 Dalmatians. And while that creepy character sought to clothe herself in cuddly lap dogs, Sleeping Beauty's Maleficent takes it up a notch, cursing a baby to death by spinning wheel and turning into a dragon! She's so ominous, in fact, she may be the first Disney villain to get her own feature.
The Maleficent movie would, according to The Hollywood Reporter re-tell the 1959 fairy tale from the point of view of the self-proclaimed "Mistress of All Evil." Already rumored to be a front-runner for the delightfully devilish role: Angelina Jolie.
But wouldn't the equally gorgeous Catherine Zeta-Jones be able to bring to life her evil elegance? Her background is in theater and dancing after all. Another casting contender: Kim Cattrall, who has proven time after time she is equally bewitching and b----y!

Geoffrey Arend, the new hubby of Mad Men star Christina Hendricks, is mad for gadgets.
Hendricks said Arend, whom she married in October 2009, has tricked out their Los Angeles home with technology that "blows her mind."
"The house is rigged," the voluptuous redhead told PEOPLE Thursday at Ann Taylor's 2010 Fall Fashion collection showing in the lobby of New York's Ace Hotel. "He's got a projector in the guest room with the screen that comes down. We watch movies in bed.
"And everything is wireless," Hendricks, 34, added. "If he goes out of town, I'm in trouble, because I don't know how everything works."
