Hollywood has definitely grown, in embracing the inclusion of Latinos in the world, because, for some time, we didn't exist. We were not part of any stories.

More quotes by Salma Hayek
I don't believe in the so-called Latino explosion when it comes to movies. Jennifer Lopez 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.
Salma Hayek
I think if I was not in love, I would probably let myself go faster. Love gives me the vanity to continue.
Salma Hayek
Sometimes when we try to get outside of ourselves, to be like someone else, you miss out on so many beautiful things that you don't know that you are because you're looking at someone else.
Salma Hayek
I've never had anything done on my face. I've never had dermabrasion or peels or injections of any kind, nothing.
Salma Hayek
There were many times when I had to emotionally come to terms with the fact that maybe I wasn't ever going to get married. And I started getting comfortable with that.
Salma Hayek
After doing a juice cleanse, I'm motivated to eat healthier and not emotionally. Cleansing is like my meditation. It makes me stop, focus and think about what I'm putting into my body. I'm making a commitment to my health and hitting the reset button.
Salma Hayek
I might not be famous one day. But I'd still be happy.
Salma Hayek
I've stolen a couple of hearts and they are in my private collection!
Salma Hayek
I'm not a skinny girl. I push it. I'm at the limit of chubbiness at all times, but I'm happy at all times.
Salma Hayek
I believe that change keeps you young.
Salma Hayek
Before I had my child, animals were my life. I slept with four dogs in my bed.
Salma Hayek
There has never been a female director who has won an Oscar. There has only been one woman who won at the Cannes Film Festival.
Salma Hayek
I said, 'I'm going to the United States to study with Stella Adler and do movies because nobody here has done it and my passion is films.' But I came here and I didn't speak English, I didn't have a green card, I didn't know I had to have an agent, I couldn't drive, I was dyslexic.
Salma Hayek
So you have to keep waiting and then they give you the script and it's terrible. Then you have to go to the rewrite and they're very upset because you didn't like it. I went through that for seven years.
Salma Hayek
I received so many hate letters when I breast-fed a starving baby in Africa. I was in Sierra Leone in 2009 and I was weaning my child at that time - she was not there with me. There was a hungry baby who was crying because his mother had no milk, and I thought, 'Why throw away my milk if I can give it to a baby who needs it?'
Salma Hayek
People always underestimate me. But if you stick around long enough, act out of conviction, and try to be honorable in everything you do, good things will come to you.
Salma Hayek
When you are passionate about life, it keeps you young. Sometimes I wake up at 4:00 am just to see how my roses look.
Salma Hayek
Somehow I am really relaxed within the chaos of having a baby - and anyone who's a mother knows it's very hard to relax, because there is so much to do and worry about!
Salma Hayek
I believe eating well, and with people you love, is about feeding your body, heart, and soul - I used juicing to ensure I covered my nutritional bases every day, and as a tool to restore inner balance if my body needed a break from too much indulgence.
Salma Hayek
If you love food and you love red wine and they put you in France, you’re in a good place and you’re in a bad place at the same time. You have to weigh yourself every day, and you have to have an alarm number. When you get to that number, you have to start putting it in reverse.
Salma Hayek
