The amazing Salma Hayek was born on September 2, 1966, in the oil boomtown of Coatzacoalcos, Mexico. Hayek has freely admitted that she and her brother, Sami, were spoiled rotten by her well-to-do Lebanese-Mexican businessman father and her Mexican-born opera-singing mother. After having seen _Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)_ (qv) in a local movie theatre, Salma decided she wanted to become an actress. Her education included a stint at a New Orleans convent school, where she pulled pranks on the nuns by setting their clocks back three hours. She was soon expelled. Only after attending Mexico City's Universidad Iberoamericana did she feel ready to pursue acting seriously. She soon landed the title role in _"Teresa" (1989)_ (qv), a hugely successful soap opera which earned her the star status in her native Mexico. However, anxious to make films and to explore her talent and passion, Hayek left both _"Teresa" (1989)_ (qv) and Mexico in 1991. Heartbroken fans spread rumors that she was having a secret affair with Mexico's president and left to escape his wife's wrath. At long last, Salma made her way to Los Angeles. The 24 year old actress approached Hollywood with naïve enthusiasm, and quickly learned that Latin actresses were, if at all, typecast as the mistress maid or local prostitute. By late 1992, Hayek had landed only bit parts. She appeared on _"Street Justice" (1991)_ (qv), _"The Sinbad Show" (1993)_ (qv), _"Nurses" (1991)_ (qv), and as a sexy maid on the HBO series _"Dream On" (1990)_ (qv). She also had one line in the 'Allison Anders' (qv) film _Mi vida loca (1993)_ (qv). Feeling under-appreciated by Anglo filmmakers, Hayek vented her frustrations on comedian 'Paul Rodriguez (I)' (qv)'s late-night Spanish-language talk show in 1992. 'Robert Rodriguez (I)' (qv) and his producer wife 'Elizabeth Avellan' (qv) happened to be watching and were immediately smitten with the intelligent, opinionated young woman. He soon gave her her big break--to star opposite 'Antonio Banderas (I)' (qv) in the now cult classic _Desperado (1995)_ (qv), which put her on Hollywood's map. The moviegoers proved to be as dazzled with Hayek as he had been. After her break, she was cast again by Rodriguez to star in his _From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)_ (qv). Although her vampy role opposite 'George Clooney' (qv) and 'Quentin Tarantino' (qv) was a small one, it was a good credit to her box office name. Hayek's first star billing came later that year with _Fools Rush In (1997)_ (qv) opposite _"Friends" (1994)_ (qv) actor 'Matthew Perry (I)' (qv). The film was a modest hit, and Hayek continued to rise her star in both commercial and artistic films such as: _Breaking Up (1997)_ (qv) with an unknown 'Russell Crowe' (qv); _54 (1998)_ (qv) about the rise and fall of the legendary New York club; _Dogma (1999)_ (qv), playing the muse in a somewhat odd comedy co-starring 'Matt Damon' (qv) and 'Chris Rock (I)' (qv); _In the Time of the Butterflies (2001) (TV)_ (qv), the small artistic film which won Hayek an ALMA award as best actress; and the 1999 summer blockbuster _Wild Wild West (1999)_ (qv). Her production company "Ventanarosa" produced the 1999 Mexican feature film _El coronel no tiene quien le escriba (1999)_ (qv), which was shown at the Cannes Film Festival and selected as Mexico's official Oscar entry for best foreign film. The new millennium started out quietly around Salma as she was preparing to produce and star in her dream role, that of 'Frida Kahlo' (qv), the legendary Mexican painter whom Salma had been admiring her entire life and whose story she wanted to bring to the big screen ever since her arrival in Hollywood. It finally happened in 2002. _Frida (2002)_ (qv), co-produced by Hayek, was a beautifully made film overflowing with passion and enthusiasm, with terrific performances from Salma and 'Alfred Molina' (qv) as Kahlo's cheating husband "Diego Rivera". On the side was an entourage of stars including 'Antonio Banderas (I)' (qv), 'Ashley Judd' (qv), 'Geoffrey Rush' (qv), 'Edward Norton (I)' (qv) and 'Valeria Golino' (qv). The picture was a hit and was nominated for six Oscars, including best actress for Hayek, who became the first Latin actress to be nominated in the category, and won the awards for make-up and its brilliant original score by 'Elliot Goldenthal' (qv). Hayek established herself as the serious actress that she is and, in the same year, expanded her horizons, directing _The Maldonado Miracle (2003) (TV)_ (qv), which was shown at the Sundance Film festival. In 2003, she starred in the final of Rodriguez's "Desperado" trilogy _Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003)_ (qv), again opposite Banderas, and has just finished _After the Sunset (2004)_ (qv) opposite 'Pierce Brosnan' (qv) and _Ask the Dust (2006)_ (qv) opposite 'Colin Farrell (I)' (qv). Both are scheduled for release in early 2005. In the works are 'Robert Altman (I)' (qv)'s "Paint" and _Bandidas (2006)_ (qv) in which she will star with her friend 'Penélope Cruz' (qv). One of Hollywood's most dazzling leading actresses, Salma Hayek was born in Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, Mexico, on 2nd September, 1966. Her Lebanese-Mexican father was a rich businessman and her mother was an opera singer. At a very young age, Salma already knew she wanted to be an actress and, after finishing high school, she felt more than ready to pursue her ambition. In the late 80s, she won the role of "Teresa" in the self-titled soap opera, and quickly became the "it" girl everyone was talking about. The shallow and superficial acting required for the role was, however, not satisfying, as she wanted to get ahead in acting rather than being stuck in it. She soon left her native Mexico and her popularity to make her way to Los Angeles. There, her career took off. Having arrived in Hollywood, she was anonymous and had to start from scratch. She soon realized she had been slightly naïve about continuing her acting career in a foreign country, with a very thick accent and no experience, whatsoever. She was told over and over again by the big suits she would have no chance of becoming a leading lady in Hollywood as there just weren't any parts for Latinas with accents, let alone one who doesn't speak English. She started to take acting classes from the renowned 'Stella Adler' (qv) and worked on her accent. By 1993, she still wasn't getting her feet off the ground and was too stubborn to return back to Mexico as she would consider it as "having failed". Instead, she vented her frustrations in a late-night talk show by 'Paul Rodriguez (I)' (qv). Director 'Robert Rodriguez (I)' (qv), who happened to be watching that very show, was smitten with the beautiful, witty, and articulate Hayek, and cast her in his upcoming movie _Desperado (1995)_ (qv). _Desperado (1995)_ (qv) was released in 1995 and was a hit. 'Antonio Banderas (I)' (qv) and Hayek had ignited sparks on the screen and the moviegoers fell in love with both stars. By now, she had entered the Hollywood scene. This hadn't happened for a Latina actress since the 1930s with the success of 'Dolores del Rio' (qv) and, later on, with 'Rita Moreno (I)' (qv). In 1996, she appeared in _From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)_ (qv) and _Fled (1996)_ (qv) and started production on her first star billing movie, _Fools Rush In (1997)_ (qv). The romantic comedy, which cast her as a woman who ends up pregnant after a one night stand with 'Matthew Perry (I)' (qv), grossed around 35 million domestically and achieved rave reviews for Hayek. During this period, she also got to cash in on her status and looks by signing a lucrative deal with cosmetics giant Revlon. Although she had now started climbing Hollywood's A-list, the lack of good scripts, especially for women, made the young star more persevering in finding quality roles which actually demanded some acting ability. It was around this time that she felt she wanted to do a movie on the life of iconic Mexican painter 'Frida Kahlo' (qv). She turned down a prominent role in a $70 million movie and instead took on roles in independent films including: _Breaking Up (1997)_ (qv), a romantic drama alongside then-newcomer 'Russell Crowe' (qv); _The Hunchback (1997) (TV)_ (qv);' _54 (1998)_ (qv) and _The Velocity of Gary* *(Not His Real Name) (1998)_ (qv). They were impressive but didn't do much at the box-office. In the late 1990s, Hayek went back to mainstream movies starring in _Wild Wild West (1999)_ (qv), which grossed well over $100 million, and _Dogma (1999)_ (qv). Her own production company, "Ventanarosa", co-produced the Mexican film _El coronel no tiene quien le escriba (1999)_ (qv), which was shown at the Cannes film festival and submitted as an Oscar entry. At this time, Hayek had also started preparation on her upcoming 'Frida Kahlo' (qv) film and managed to star in more movies, most notably 'Mike Figgis' (qv)'s _Timecode (2000)_ (qv), _Chain of Fools (2000)_ (qv), and _La gran vida (2000)_ (qv). In late 2002, _Frida (2002)_ (qv) was released. The hit movie provoked a great deal of publicity and rave reviews for both her and co-star 'Alfred Molina' (qv). When award season came the film and its star were not overlooked, winning the movie two Academy Awards and six nominations, including 'best actress' for her. After Frida came the final part in the closing trilogy of 'El Mariachi' with _Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003)_ (qv). Again Banderas and Hayek received top billing and big box-office. With her acclaimed work in front of the screen, Hayek was offered a chance to direct a movie for Showtime called _The Maldonado Miracle (2003) (TV)_ (qv). Not only had she established herself as a versatile actress, she was now rewarded with an Emmy as outstanding director. During this time she became one of the most photographed women in the U.S. which led to a contract with cosmetic mogul Avon, who signed her as their spokesperson for their campaigns including the Anti-Domestic Violence campaign. After an absence from the big screen for over a year, Hayek broke up with her boyfriend of four years, actor 'Edward Norton (I)' (qv), and returned opposite 007 star Pierce Brosnan in an old Hollywood style action comedy _After the Sunset (2004)_ (qv) directed by 'Brett Ratner' (qv). 2004 also marked her year as Hollywood's highest paid Latina actress, earning roughly $20 million in film contracts alone. She remains one of the most hardworking actresses in Hollywood. New films include a high profile classic-style western comedy, _Bandidas (2006)_ (qv), co-starring pal 'Penélope Cruz' (qv), with whom she has been friends for years. They play two bank robbers becoming Mexico's Thelma and Louise. Another of her new films is the highly anticipated _Ask the Dust (2006)_ (qv) directed by the brilliant 'Robert Towne' (qv).

- (September 2007) Welcomed her first child, daughter Valentina Paloma.

- I keep waiting to meet a man who has more balls than I do.
- I act tall!" "But look how short I am...I can't even act to be tall. I'm five-two. I can't even create the illusion that I am tall!
- "I don't believe in the so-called Latino explosion when it comes to movies. 'Jennifer Lopez (I)' (qv) doesn't have an accent. She grew up in New York speaking English not Spanish. Her success is very important because she represents a different culture, but it doesn't help me. I grew up in Mexico, not the US, and the fact is that there just aren't any parts for Latin actresses. I have to persuade people that my accent won't be a problem, but an asset. Everyone's afraid of doing something a bit risky. Everyone wants a $200 million hit and anything they think might get in the way of that kind of success is considered a liability".
- What worries me the most is that most men are so weak. Because of that they act like they don't care and like machos - because they are too fragile inside. They're scared of confrontation and afraid of so many things. And because of this they build up their life so they have to deal with their feelings as little as possible. I find feminine men unbelievably sexy. But most men are completely incapable of getting in touch with their feminine side. What am I supposed to talk about with a man who doesn't know what it's like to be a woman?
- At the beginning [my career] was hard. People were like, 'Who is this Mexican jumping bean?'
- What works in a relationship of very public people is not making the relationship public - keeping it as personal as it can be. It's the only way it is real. I am suspicious of those who have to let the world know how much they love each other. It's a little sad when you have to brag about how much you love someone. That kind of declaration doesn't always reflect the moment of truth between two people who care deeply for each other. When that truth is there, you don't need others to know it. And when somebody truly loves you, you don't even need him or her to be affectionate. Affection is fantastic, but it doesn't necessarily mean there's love - and the public display of affection is often just a show. When you open a door for others to have an opinion on your relationship, it can be dangerous. Find what you need, not what everyone else wants for you. Women have been taught that in order to have a place in the world, an identity, they must marry and have children. If that's the life you truly want, great. But for many women, marriage is only about needing the world to know that someone desires them enough to say, "Here's a contract to prove that I love you and will commit to you for the rest of my life." For these women, no contract equals no validation - and, thus, no reason for existing.
- "In my twenties I was offered lots of parts where there wasn't much to do but act sexy. I still get offered those roles - but now I take it as a compliment." Woman's World (7-11-06)
- About 'Madonna' (qv): "She always paid attention to the Latin community. I was grateful somebody like her appreciated our culture" (InStyle magazine, Sept 2006).
- "If I go on a diet and work out, I'm always in a bad mood. I'd rather be a little heavier but nice." -quoted in Woman's Day 8-15-06 issue
- In my world, you have to be so beautiful, so skinny, so rich, so famous and I don't believe you really have to be any of those things. You simply have to be who you are. I do have thighs and a butt. I have cellulite. Don't be too impressed with me. Don't try to dress like me or wear your hair like mine. Find your own style. Don't spend your savings trying to be someone else. You're not more important, smarter, or prettier because you wear a designer dress. I get them free and I'm too lazy to go out and look for my own. I, a rich girl from Mexico, came here with designer clothes. And one day, when I was starving in an apartment in Los Angeles, I looked at my Chanel blouses and said, 'If only I could pay the rent with one of these.'
- If a man lets all of my dogs sleep in the bed with us, then that is the most romantic thing. You must love my dogs in order to love me. A man who is nice to my animals and doesn't shoo them away - well, that's the height of romance.
- It sounds trite to go after men who are nice but when you've been hurt a lot it becomes appealing.
- [On being pregnant] You are like a swollen whale and never looked worse in your life. And somebody goes, 'You're glowing.' They don't have the courage to tell you how bad you look.
