Line 1: {{~~work~~creator}} [[File:Zooey_Deschanel_13.jpg\|~~frame~~thumb\|350px]] Zooey Claire Deschanel (January 17th, 1980) is an American actress, and if you're watching one of her performances, chances are she's either a [[Deadpan Snarker]], a [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl]], or both. She's acted in ''[[Almost Famous]]'', ''[[The ~~Hitchhikers~~Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy (~~Film~~film)\|The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]'', ''[[Elf]]'', ''[[Tin Man (TV series)\|Tin Man]]'', ''Failure to Launch'', ''[[The Happening]]'', ''[[Bridge to Terabithia]],'' ''[[Yes Man (Film)\|Yes Man]]'' and ''[[~~Five Hundred Days of Summer~~ (~~Film~~500)~~\|Five Hundred~~ Days of Summer]]''. She also has a starring role in the ~~new~~long-running Fox sitcom ''[[~~New Girl (TV)\|~~New Girl]]''. She will appear on Broadway soon, [https://web.archive.org/web/20120624041428/http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-31749_162-57432658-10391698/loretta-lynn-picks-zooey-deschanel-to-star-in-coal-miners-daughter-musical/ having been selected by country music legend Loretta Lynn to portray her in a musical adaptation of the movie "Coal Miners Daughter".] In addition to acting, Deschanel is also a talented singer, songwriter and keyboardist, and is one half of the indie folk/indie pop (or as she once described it, "arena folk") duo She & Him (the other half being singer/guitarist/producer M. Ward), and [[Yes -Man\|a couple of]] [[Your Highness\|her movies]] include at least one [[The Cast Showoff\|scene where she sings]]. She & Him have made three albums to date, titled ''Volume One'' (released March 18, 2008), ''Volume Two'' (released March 23, 2010) and ''[[Christmas Songs\|A Very She and Him Christmas]]'' (released October 24, 2011). Her father Caleb is an award-winning cinematographer (best known for his work on such films as ''[[Being There]]'' and ''[[The Passion of the Christ]]''), and her mother Mary Jo and sister Emily are both actresses as well, the former best known for playing Annie Glenn in ''[[The Right Stuff]]'' and the latter as ''[[Bones]]''. She [[Real Life Relative\|appeared as Bones' cousin]] in an episode of the latter. She also was married to [[Death Cab for Cutie]] lead singer/FaceOfTheBand Ben Gibbard from 2009 until 2011.

Her ''New Girl'' character is even called this in promotional material. [[Abby Elliott]]'s ''SNL'' parody of her overuses the the term, too. * [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Imagine if [[Pink Floyd\|Syd Barrett]] and [[Norm MacDonald]] had a love-child... Line 23: * [[Meganekko]]: Her first main-story scene in ''Hitchhiker's''. ** It looks like she'll also be one of these at least part of the time in ''New Girl''. See the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qqojuj1zoU network promo]. * [[Raven Hair, Ivory Skin]] * [[Shower Scene]] * [[Tomboyish Name]]: She's named after the male protagonist in J.D. Salinger's ''[[Franny and Zooey]]''. It's basically just "Zoe" spelled differently.
