Zooey Deschanel is a Jane of all trades. Not only is she an actress, but she is also a talented singer, showing off her fine set of chops in films. Her other musical skills include playing the piano and the ukulele. (On a side note, when was the last time you saw a twentysomething female outside of Hawaii playing the ukulele?) All of that would be enough for most people, but Zooey's also done some screenwriting on the side. Maybe she'll eventually take a shot at directing and modeling. This multitalented woman made a name for herself as a cute department store elf in the hit 2003 comedy, Elf. She could've taken a brief hiatus and rested on her laurels, but instead, she scored a role in 2005's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Did anyone else hear Zooey Deschanel's voice in that shower scene in Elf and say to themselves, "God, she should have an album!" Well, I certainly did....and Zooey listened! Here's EvilBeet with the news on Zooey's new career move:   God, I love Zooey Deschanel. She’s just the absolute coolest.

Zooey may seem fresh-faced, but really she's Hollywood royalty.  The daughter of an Oscar-winning cinematographer/director and an actress, Zooey was born to be a star.  She was also high school...
