It’s hard to dispute that Mexican actress Salma Hayek appears to be the perfect physical package. But the brunette star has an important message: true beauty comes from the inside.
According to Hayek, “In my world, you have to be so beautiful, so skinny, so famous — and I don’t believe you really have to be any of those things. You simply have to be who you are. You’re not more important, smarter, or prettier because you wear a designer dress.”

She says, “It’s always so awkward for me. One day I did all the math of the hours that I’ve sat in the make-up and hair chair, and I did a projection for the future – and it was a year of my life. I could be learning something or eating and I just sit there while somebody paints my face and messes with my hair.”

Local media in Mexico and Latin America reported this week that the Oscar-nominated actress had been ranked by Fortune magazine as the second-richest Latin American in Hollywood, with nearly half as much money as singer Jennifer Lopez.
“It’s a huge lie. It’s very, very far from reality. I don’t have that amount of money,” Hayek told Reuters, after reading an article in Mexican daily El Universal about a list of “Latino millionaires” in the United States.
“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,” she said in a telephone interview from her Los Angeles home.
