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'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
If you look at any other group of people suffering injustice, women are always in the worst situation within that group.
Salma Hayek
Art and activism seem to go together naturally, the idea being that if you're an entertainer, you can have a voice, and if you have a voice, you can make a difference. But if I were not an actress, I would still try to extend myself beyond my little micro-universe of my job, family and personal joy.
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
I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder.
Salma Hayek
When I finally decided to leave school and pursue acting, my parents didn't take it very lightly. My friends thought that it was the tackiest thing they'd ever heard of. Acting was really beneath them. They couldn't believe that I would want to become an actress. Not now, of course.
Salma Hayek
What once was an expression of who I was - acting - also became my hiding place.
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 didn't think marriage worked. I thought everybody who was married was secretly miserable - that it was something they just put up with for their children.
Salma Hayek
When I feel stressed, I turn to food for comfort, but I don't like to diet and I'm not good at it.
Salma Hayek
In fighting for women, we fight for humanity. We fight for the future - for everyone.
Salma Hayek
They thought I was crazy in Mexico when I said, 'I'm going to Hollywood.' Nobody thought I could make it.
Salma Hayek
If you give me any problem in America I can trace it down to domestic violence. It is the cradle of most of the problems, economic, psychological, educational.
Salma Hayek
I can learn my lines fine. It’s just reading them in the first place that is the problem.
Salma Hayek
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.
Salma Hayek
Beauty products always cheer me up and give me hope. If it makes you feel pretty, why not?
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
Everybody has a weakness. Mine is food.
Salma Hayek
I think I'm very good at adjusting to anything and to any situation, and if you are good at being in the moment and adjusting, you can actually have a clear vision of what to do with things or how to do things.
Salma Hayek
