CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts (AP) - Catherine Zeta-Jones sang a tune on Thursday from the musical “Chicago” - with lyrics just for her - in earning her pudding pot and being crowned Hasty Pudding Theatrical's Woman of the Year.

“Give me four more Oscars or I'll make ‘The Haunting 2'.

“When you're good to Catherine, Catherine's good to you,” she sang with a smile. The actress appeared in “The Haunting” in 1999 and won an Oscar for her part in the film version of “Chicago”.

Zeta-Jones, who has a home in Bermuda with her husband Michael Douglas, also tap danced in high heels before being presented with the brass pudding pot - an honour that she joked ranked with “the ten hours I laboured to give birth to my children.”

“All the brilliance that congregates here at gorgeous Harvard. ... It's nice to know that there's not one ounce of class,” Zeta-Jones said.

Husband Michael Douglas arrived before the ceremony and watched the tomfoolery from the audience. He was crowned the Hasty Pudding Man of the Year in 1992. The “Pudding” will perform “Terms of Frontierment” in Bermuda at the end of March.

The awards are given to performers who have made a “lasting and impressive contribution to the world of entertainment”, by Hasty Pudding Theatricals, the nation's oldest undergraduate drama troupe.

Earlier, Zeta-Jones appeared on the steps of the Hasty Pudding Theatre surrounded by cast members in drag. A traditional parade was cancelled because of rain.

Zeta-Jones earned a best supporting actress Oscar for her role in “Chicago” and has starred in such films as “The Terminal,” “America's Sweethearts” and “Intolerable Cruelty.”

Actor Tim Robbins is scheduled to be crowned Hasty Pudding Man of the Year on February 17. Last year's recipients were Sandra Bullock and Robert Downey Jr.

“Terms of Frontierment” will be performed at City Hall from March 30 to April 2.

In the play, Luke N Forglory and his geeky girlscout sidekick Wanda Buymuycookies search for the greatest treasure of the American West, the Oregon Grail.

Along the way they'll join forces with an aspiring country western singer and her hillbilly mother, an Indian chief and his daughter Pocahotness, and a lovesick female buffalo, Alma Stextinct., the group's website said
