Hayek
Salma Hayek Jiménez is a Mexican American film actress, director and
producer. She began her career in Mexico starring in the telenovela Teresa and
went on to star in the film El Callejón de los Milagros (Miracle Alley) for
which she was nominated for an Ariel Award. In 1991 Hayek moved to Hollywood and
came to prominence with roles in Hollywood movies such as Desperado, Dogma , and
Wild Wild West .
Her breakthrough role was in the 2002 film Frida as Frida Kahlo which she
received an Academy Award, BAFTA Award, Screen Actors Guild Award and Golden
Globe Award nomination for Best Actress. The movie received widespread attention
and was a critical and commercial success. She won a Daytime Emmy Award for
Outstanding Directing in a Children/Youth/Family Special in 2004 for The
Maldonado Miracle and received an Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Guest
Actress in a Comedy Series in 2007 after guest-starring in the ABC television
series Ugly Betty.
Hayek's recent films include Grown Ups acting alongside Adam Sandler, and Puss
in Boots , which also features former collaborator Antonio Banderas, wherein she
is the voice of the character 'Kitty Softpaws'.
Hayek has been a spokesperson for Avon cosmetics since February 2004. She
formerly was a spokesperson for Revlon in 1998. In 2001, she modeled for Chopard
and was featured in 2006 Campari adverts, photographed by Mario Testino. On
April 3, 2009, she helped introduce La Doña, a watch by Cartier inspired by
fellow Mexican actress María Félix.
Hayek has worked with the Procter & Gamble Company and UNICEF to promote the
funding through disposable diaper sales of vaccines against maternal and
neonatal tetanus.
She is a global spokesperson for the Pampers/UNICEF "partnership" 1 Pack = 1
Vaccine to help raise awareness of the program. This "partnership" involves
Proctor & Gamble donating the cost of one tetanus vaccination (approximately 24
cents) for every pack of Pampers sold. (Pampers diapers cost approximately 25
cents each, or about US$1,000 per child per year in the US market).
In 2011, Hayek launched her own line of cosmetics, skincare and haircare
products called Nuance by Salma Hayek, to be sold at CVS stores in North
America. She was inspired to create a cosmetic line from her grandmother, who
used to make her own facial care products.
Hayek was also featured in a series of Spanish language commercials for Lincoln
cars. In spring 2006, the Blue Star Contemporary Art Center in San Antonio,
Texas displayed 16 portrait paintings by muralist George Yepes and filmmaker
Robert Rodriguez of Hayek as Aztec goddess Itzpapalotl.
Salma Hayek appears determined to win a few olés on the promotional trail for
her latest movie. She flaunted her incredible curves as she arrived for the New
York premiere of Grown Ups in a summery cream strapless dress and sky-high red
heels. The previous night, the 43-year-old wore a very revealing black leather
top which showed off her famous curves for an interview with Jimmy Fallon.
Hayek made an appearance on his TV show, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, to plug
the film, in which she stars alongside Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Rob Schneider,
Chris Rock and David Spade. The movie is about a group of high school friends
who reunite as adults after their basketball coach dies. But rather than fashion
and film, the actress was more interested in talking about her other passion -
football. She was revelling in France's early departure from the World Cup after
their loss to her team, Mexico. 'I am a huge soccer fan,' said Hayek, who is
married to French businessman Francois-Henri Pinaul, 46.
Hot mamma: Salma's body bounced back after giving birth to daughter Valentina
two years ago. 'It was a bit of a sticky subject. When Pinault came home from
work I had decorated the whole house Mexican. There were Mexican flags
everywhere and I invited all my Mexican friends.' 'We were all really loud and
after we won all the French people went home and we stayed up and partied and he
couldn't get to sleep.' 'We kept going with the tequila - he was like "Where am
I? I thought I was in Paris!"
The Frida actress said she was keeping positive about Mexico's next game against
Argentina on June 27th.
'Now we have to play against Argentina, its really difficult, they're probably
the best team in the World Cup. 'The Virgin of Guadalupe must be so busy right
now with all the Mexicans praying - we need a miracle - but we can do it.' The
Mexican beauty married her French husband on Valentines Day 2009 in Paris, where
they now live full time.
They have a daughter together, Valentina Paloma Pinault, who is two and a half.
Salma shot to fame in the 1995 Robert Rodriguez directed film Desperado,
alongside Antonia Banderas. Her most notable performance was in the 2002 biopic
Frida, in which she played Frida Kahlo, the Mexican communist painter. She was
nominated for an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA and a SAG award for her
portrayal of the character.
Hollywood star Salma Hayek looked dangerously close to spilling out of her dress
as she filmed the TV show 30 Rock in Brooklyn in New York City. The actress's
fashionably vibrant orange dress struggled under the strain of her Rubenesque
figure, its plunging neckline only just managing to preserve her modesty.
Earlier this week the actress nearly exposed herself as she appeared on a German
TV show.
Her ornate dress's plunging neckline nearly gave way as she lent forward while
talking to the host. But yesterday there was no time for fooling around as Salma
threw herself into the role. Between takes - Salma is making a guest appearance
on the show - there was only one thing on her mind - her beautiful baby girl
Valentina.
She cuddled the adorable 11-month old, whose father is French billionaire
François-Henri Pinault, as she waited for her next scene.
