Catherine Zeta-Jones just pulled off the ultimate birthday surprise for her husband and fellow birthday twin, Michael Douglas—and let’s just say it wasn’t your typical “Happy Birthday, here’s a sweater” moment.
In case you’ve been living under a rock without Wi-Fi, both Catherine and Michael were born on September 25. (I mean, who doesn’t love a good celebrity coincidence, right?) The question on everyone’s mind was, “After all these years, what on earth do you give the man who already has an Oscar, a legendary film career, and… well, you?”
Cue Catherine, probably pacing around the house, brainstorming gift ideas. “Socks? Nah. New cologne? Too predictable. A trip to the moon? Maybe next year.” And then, like a bolt of genius (or sheer desperation), the lightbulb went off. She took to Instagram to reveal her brilliant, albeit bold, solution: herself!
That’s right. She ditched the gift-wrapping paper, skipped the ribbon, and went straight for the “birthday suit.” And no, we’re not talking about a chic outfit from her closet. Catherine posed in the classic, timeless ensemble that never goes out of style—her actual skin, accessorized only with a pair of black heels (because one must be classy, even when wearing absolutely nothing).
“In my birthday suit! After over 25 years of sharing my birthday with my husband, I am running out of gift ideas!” Catherine captioned the risqué pic, probably while Michael casually golf-clapped in the background. “This is gift option two. Golf balls were option one… obviously.”
Well, that certainly puts pressure on our next birthday gift ideas. Seriously, how do you top that? We wish the birthday couple a fabulous day—and may Michael have some equally creative gift ideas for next year. Maybe a pair of golf shoes?
Either way, we all know the real present here: Catherine’s sense of humor. And, you know, those black heels.
