* LargeHam: A lot of her roles, especially in ''Batman Returns''.

* WorldsMostBeautifulWoman: Was listed in ''Magazine/{{People}}'''s annual "50 Most Beautiful People" issue a record six times, and was widely described as the most beautiful woman in the world in her heyday.

* WhipItGood: She is quite skilled with a whip. She did her own whip scenes as Catwoman in ''Film/BatmanReturns'', and her trainer, who also trained Harrison Ford for Franchise/IndianaJones, went on record saying she was ''better'' than him with one.

* OldShame: Considers several of her films (specifically ''Film/{{Grease 2}}'', ''A Thousand Acres'', and ''Film/ICouldNeverBeYourWoman'') to be disappointments. She has also gone on record stating that as a rule she only watches her films once, and that is it. Averted with ''One Fine Day'', which didn't do well but she believes it's a good movie nonetheless.
