Jamie Lee Curtis Spills on Her Unforgettable 1984 Meeting with Husband Chris Guest

Jamie Lee Curtis visited The Drew Barrymore Show and told Barrymore how her romance began with her husband Christopher Guest. 

Reflecting on how it all began, Curtis recalled, “it was April of 1984. I was sitting on a couch with my friend Deborah Hill who wrote and produced Halloween. We were looking at Rolling Stone and this was the issue with Cindy Lauper on the cover with her skirt going one way and her body on the other. I opened the magazine and there was a picture of three men.”

She continued, “The man on the end caught my eye. I turned to Deborah and thought, ‘Oh, Huh, interesting… I’m going to marry that guy.’ She asked, ‘Who?’ I said, ‘That one right there.’ She went, ‘Oh yeah, he’s an actor. I tried to put him in your movie—he’s with your agents.’ I called his agent and left my number, and Chris didn’t call me right away.”
