It’s hot in Mexico, which explains the South of the Border sexpot Salma Hayek. Her pint-sized, hour-glass figure first made its appearance on the short-lived TV sitcom The Sinbad Show. But, oh, her sin is good. Even when stopping short of nudity, like the steamy stripteases in From Dusk Till Dawn and Dogma , Salma is naughty. But this spicy dish serves up her hot tamale and chesty chimichangas in many sizzling platters. A tantalizing appetizer being two heaping scoops of juicy boobies ordered up by Antonio Banderas in Desperado. The second course: a taste of tit in Breaking Up , a side of milk sacks from The Velocity of Gary , and a full moon flashed for The Wild Wild West. Hope you’ve saved room for dessert, because there’s pie on the menu. The biopic about Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, Frida , exposed the more feminine side of Salma with an Ashley Judd lip-lock and crotch-grabbing lesbian lay with Karine Plantadit-Bageot.
Hayek, who caused boiling water cooler talk the next day after her brassiered appearance on "Ugly Betty," gave it all up on screen for "Ask the Dust," a Depression-era drama that ... well, never mind that. The bottom line is that Hayek skinny dips with Colin Farrell and then bares alor a follow-up sex scene.
Salma Hayek would like you to know that when it comes to cleavage, no one is spicier than a girl from Down South, and by “South” I mean Mexico, not, you know, “the South”. Which leads me to this thought: We all know that Salma Hayek is currently preggers, and pregnant woman tend to develop very huge melons, so if Salma Hayek already has huge breasts well before she got pregnant, what kind of cleavage do you think Salma Hayek is sporting at the moment? I don’t know, but man, I’d sure like to find out! And oh yeah, congrats on the baby Salma and all that stuff. Let me be the first to congrat you and your wonderful cleavage.
Hayek Denies $100 Million Fortune Reports.
24July 2006 (WENN) Mexican beauty Salma Hayek denies reports she has a $100 million fortune, and insists she would donate the money to the poor in her native Mexico if she was so rich. The Frida actress is ranked by Fortune magazine as the second-richest Latin American in Hollywood behind Jennifer Lopez. But the 39-year-old is angered by false details about her finances becoming public. She says, "It's a huge lie. It's very, very far from reality. I don't have that amount of money. Somebody sent me it and I laughed. It's a bit like a joke. Obviously I have never earned $100 million and I wouldn't even want to. With things as they are in Mexico, it bothers me that they put me in a group of millionaires with $100 million I don't have when there are so many people dying of hunger. If I had $100 million I would have retired and would be doing more things on an altruistic level than I can now. I would have opened centers in Mexico for violence against women and many other things." Hayek is one of Mexico's most well known faces and has helped to raise awareness about issues such as the country's failure to solve a spate of brutal murders of women in the northern border city of Ciudad Juarez.

Hayek: "I'll Be a Working Mother"
30 August 2007 (WENN) - Heavily-pregnant actress Salma Hayek has ruled out moving to Paris to become a housewife after she gives birth to her French fiance's child - she wants to continue working at her production company in the U.S. instead. The Frida star is due to give birth to her first child with partner Francois-Henri Pinault any time now. But despite impending motherhood, Hayek plans to keep herself busy professionally by working on new projects with her Ventanarosa Productions business partner Jose Tamez. She says, "I'm going to stay (in the U.S.) and run this company. I could just say I will give it all up and be a housewife in Paris. But I said, 'No.' I was so lucky because I found myself a man who is a great businessman. And he loves it that I work this hard. He has a lot of respect for what I do."
