Salma Hayek appeared on the UK programme This Morning earlier today. Unfortunately, we found out about it too late. Does anyone have the video? Here’s a report of a strange incident that happened. From TheSun.co.uk:
Sexy Salma Hayek was forced to clarify her sexuality on today’s This Morning – when Eamon Holmes mistakenly asked her if she was a lesbian.
The Mexican actress appeared on the ITV1 show to discuss her campaign to wipe out Tetanus, but instead, found herself having to tell the bumbling presenter she was not a lesbian.
Eamon made the gaffe when he told curvy Salma: “Hayek doesn’t sound very Mexican”.
But when she told him that’s because she’s half Lebanese, he didn’t understand what she said and asked: “You’re a lesbian?”
And when a smiling Salma again told him she was Lebanese, sheepish Eamon asked her to forgive him and admitted he’d thought she’d said she was “half lesbian”.

Hayek, spokeswoman for the Pampers/UNICEF campaign against tetanus, went to Sierra Leone last week to take part in an vaccination drive against the disease.
For each specially-marked pack of Pampers diapers sold through year-end, Procter & Gamble has pledged to donate a vaccine. UNICEF hopes to wipe out the scourge, blamed for the deaths of 140,000 babies and 30,000 mothers each year, by 2012.
“I had no idea how much it was going to really personally move me … to actually see it in Sierra Leone,” Hayek told a news conference in Geneva.

Apparently Salma Hayek has been in Sierra Leone doing charity work for Unicef. Very inspiring! From WWD.com:
As she slipped into her seat at Balenciaga Tuesday morning next to Francois-Henri Pinault, Salma Hayek declared: “It’s going to be a culture shock.” That’s because the actress, and mother of Pinault’s daughter Valentina, said she just arrived from Sierra Leone, where she was doing some charity work for Unicef. “I was there vaccinating and seeing the effects of the campaign,” she said, noting she has been in Europe a couple of weeks. “I’m very excited to be here at this show.”
