Mother Anne Lee Cordell in her youth was a swimmer, and then a fashion model and actress who starred in several films from the cycle of "water musicals". Ann left her modeling career for a family and five children. Kimila had two older brothers - James Michael and Skip, as well as younger sisters Ashley and Barbara.

Kim studied ballet at the age of 3, but dropped out of choreography as a teenager. The girl grew up shy and quiet. Parents even took their daughter to a psychiatrist, thinking that Kim has autism. The doctor found out that the girl's atypical behavior was caused not by mental disorders, but by a puritanical upbringing. Parents persuaded Kim to pick up such hobbies that would help her to be free.

So Kim Basinger became a member of the school cheerleading team. At the age of 16, the girl began her career as a model, and also participated in local beauty contests. In 1971, she wins the Miss Georgia title, moves to New York and focuses entirely on her modeling career, becoming one of the most sought-after girls in the business.

Kim Basinger has appeared on dozens of popular magazine covers and hundreds of commercials, and has also been the face of Breck Shampoo. Later, having already become an actress, she starred nude for Playboy magazine. In New York, in parallel with her work, Kim Basinger attended the Neighborhood Playhouse acting school, as she realized that the modeling career was not so long compared to the actress's career. In 1976, she quit modeling and moved to Los Angeles to start acting in films.

In Hollywood, she started out on television shows and daily serials. A breakthrough in the creative biography of the actress took place in 1983, when Kim Basinger played the James Bond girl in the next part of the spy saga Never Say Never. This picture was the last appearance of Sean Connery as Agent 007.

The incredible popularity of the actress brought the erotic melodrama "Nine and a half weeks", based on the novel of the same name by Elizabeth McNeil. Her partner in this cult drama was the already famous Mickey Rourke. Nine and a Half Weeks was not just a sex action action game. The painting, filled with metaphors and symbolism, showed the contradiction between the physical dependence of people on each other and their spiritual incongruity, leading to emotional devastation.

Film critics smashed the melodrama with their reviews, Kim Basinger even received the Golden Raspberry anti-award, but the commercial success and popularity with the public allowed the film to stand on a par with the most famous erotic films. In addition, thanks to the massive sales of videotapes with the recording of the film, the actress received a huge income.

In the 1989 comic film Batman, Kim Basinger plays reporter Vicki Weil, the superhero's girlfriend and Joker hunter. Sean Young was originally approved for the role, but before filming began, she was injured while riding a horse. Then the producers invited Michelle Pfeiffer, but later she refused, because she could not play normally with Michael Keaton, with whom she recently parted ways.

Thus, Basinger got the role, and she did it admirably. The film had a good box office and had an impact on Hollywood, promoting the genre of superhero blockbusters.

In the 1993 dramatic action movie The Real McCoy, Kim turned into a desperate criminal who, after an unsuccessful bank robbery, ended up in prison, where she served 6 years. Released, the woman was trapped: accomplices blackmailed her to participate in new crimes. In addition to Basinger, the film features Val Kilmer and Terence Stamp.

In the already familiar role of an adventurer, the actress starred in Roger Donaldson's film "Escape", where, together with Alec Baldwin, she played a married couple of criminals who help the son of a mafia to escape from imprisonment. In 1997, Kim Basinger starred in the thriller Los Angeles Secrets, where she played the femme fatale call girl Lynn Margaret Braken.

She twice turned down an offer from director Curtis Hanson to take part in the filming of this picture, as she wanted to take a long break from work. But after learning that her partners would be such stars as Russell Crowe, Kevin Spacey and Guy Pearce, she agreed, and later in interviews repeatedly said that this project was the most enjoyable in her career, not least thanks to the outstanding cast.

For this role, Kim Basinger received an Oscar statuette and a Golden Globe film award. The charismatic performer with this work opened a series of age roles in her filmography. The next striking way in a similar role was the role of the mother of the main character in the film "8 Mile". Interestingly, the son of Basinger was played by rapper Eminem, who after filming had a short-term romance with his partner.

In the new millennium, the actress has not stopped acting. Kim Basinger played the first lady in the 2006 action-thriller The Guardian. In 2008, she reincarnated as Laura in The Informants, based on a collection of short stories by Bret Easton Ellis and representing seven separate but interconnected plots.

In 2009, Kim played the role of a mother with many children in Guillermo Arriaga's drama The Burning Plain. Jennifer Lawrence and Charlize Theron played the other main role - the daughter of the heroine Kim Marianna.

In 2010, the actress played a minor role in the romantic drama The Double Life of Charlie Sun Cloud, and in 2013, in the sports comedy Bottom-Hole Revenge with Robert De Niro and Sylvester Stallone in the foreground.

In 2016, the actress appeared in the comedy detective story Goodfellas. The film is set in America in the 70s and shows the forced collaboration of a private security guard-brute and an intelligent weak detective. The partners undertake to investigate a seemingly simple case of an escaped girl, but they uncover a criminal conspiracy of the century.

Basinger plays Judith Kuttner, a Justice Department employee who hires a private investigator and brutal bone breaker to protect her daughter Amelia from the Las Vegas mafia clan. The criminals have a plan to seize power in Los Angeles, and Amelia is involved in this plan. Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe starred in the comedy.

In 2017, the celebrity appeared on the screens in the controversial melodrama Fifty Shades Darker, the sequel to the equally controversial film Fifty Shades of Gray. Both melodramas are based on the novels of the same name by the American writer E.L. James.

James' novels are rumored to be AU fanfiction (that is, an alternative universe that allows popular characters to be placed in new scenery) on another controversial Twilight franchise. After the fanfiction became famous, the writer changed names, but the similarities between the characters and the main storylines continue to be seen.

In the new film, Kim Basinger played the role of Elena Lincoln, a business partner and longtime friend of the main character Christian. Jamie Dornan played the role of Christian, a billionaire with strange addictions, as in the first film. The main female image of the student Anastacia again went to Dakota Johnson.

For the first time, Kim Basinger married in 1980 to makeup artist Ron Britton, the son of personal makeup artist Marilyn Monroe. The groom was 15 years older than the bride. The actress met her future husband on the set of the drama “Heavy Country”. They lived together for 7 years, and officially divorced at the end of 1989. The reason for the breakup was Ron's jealousy. After the divorce, Britton sued Kim for alimony in the amount of $ 8 thousand per month, as well as repayment of all mortgage payments.

Financial obligations to her ex-husband did not prevent Kim from realizing his unusual dream - buying a city and turning it into a tourist center. In the early 90s, she invested $ 20 million in the settlement of Braselton, in her home state of Georgia. The performer's business plan turned out to be a failure: a few years later, she had to put up the main enterprises of the city for auction, which allowed her to return $ 1 million from the initial contribution. ...

On the set of the romantic comedy The Marrying Habit, Kim began an affair with co-star Alec Baldwin. They dated for 3 years, their romance is considered one of the most beautiful in Hollywood. Observing the genuine love of his chosen one for animals, especially abandoned ones, Alec once gave Kim a little elephant.

For the first time after parting for a long time, Baldwin could not be away from his beloved and flew in a private jet to the set where Basinger was filming. The wedding took place on a tropical island, the bride stood barefoot in front of the altar. Two years after exchanging vows of allegiance, the couple became parents - in 1995, their daughter Ireland was born.

After the birth of the girl, Kim quickly regained shape. The figure of the actress is not inclined to be overweight, so the woman soon returned to her usual weight of 56 kg, which, with Basinger's height of 171 cm, makes her parameters harmonious. A celebrity could start filming and regain popularity after a break from work.

But she decides to focus on the family and raising her daughter, so she violates the contract with the Main Line Pictures film company about filming in the crime drama Elena in the Box. As a result, the company in court for non-compliance with the contract exposes it to a fine of almost $ 9 million, which led Basinger to a serious financial crisis.

Kim and Alec broke up in 2000, and after 2 years the couple officially filed for divorce. Interestingly, both ex-husbands of the actress wrote books about their life with Kim Basinger and the breakup with her. Ron Britton's memoir is called Longer Than Forever, and Baldwin's is I Promise to Take Over.

The actress is a vegetarian and a staunch opponent of animal cruelty. She posed for an advertisement for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, an anti-fur campaign.

In 2015, there were rumors that the actress had plastic surgery. Fans noticed that Kim Basinger's skin became unnaturally smooth, and mimic wrinkles disappeared from her face. A year before that, fans discussed the artist's appearance only in a positive way, admiring that Basinger was able to preserve her natural beauty at the age of 60.

Even if she resorted to the services of cosmetologists, until 2015, these interventions only painted a woman. After Basinger's sudden change in appearance, fans began to create photo compilations with the actress, entitled "Plastics: Before and After" and showing how Kim has changed. Some of the media even put the star on the list of plastic surgery victims.

In December of the same year, these rumors were overshadowed by new information about the personal life of the screen star. The media claimed that the actress secretly married Mick Stone, a personal hairdresser. The paparazzi took several joint photos of the couple on a date and noticed the lovers have the same gold rings.

Today, Kim Basinger rarely appears on the big screen. In 2018, she participated in the premiere of the final part of the trilogy based on the books of Erica Leonard (E.L. James). The film was called Fifty Shades of Freedom. Despite the impressive box office of $ 370 million, the film was ranked 3rd in The Hollywood Reporter's list of the worst films of the year.

Now the artist devotes more time to her own daughter and participates in the development of Ireland's career. The girl has been cooperating with the modeling agency IMG Models for several years, and in 2019 she starred in an advertising campaign for mineral water.

The work took place on the beaches of Malibu, in front of the camera Ireland appeared in a bronze-colored swimsuit. It is known that the father of the young model does not encourage her candid photo sessions and even expressed dissatisfaction with the pictures of her daughter, which she posted on Instagram. But Kim remains on Ireland's side.
