Mirren Bans Press From Damehood Investiture

British movie veteran DAME [Helen Mirren](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/helen-mirren) has banned any video footage or photographs of her investiture at Buckingham Palace being made available to the press.

The CALENDER GIRLS actress is notoriously media-shy and has no intention of letting the wider world have access to her big day on Friday (05DEC03), in which [Queen Elizabeth II](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/queen-elizabeth-ii) will make her a Dame.

Her spokesperson says, "Unless she's promoting a film, she never does interviews or publicity."
