While Salma didn’t attend The 81st Annual Academy Awards she did pop in to the Vanity Fair After Party like previously reported. There she wore a black Balenciaga dress and paired it with tights. While her hair was very Hollywood glamour in lose waves. Salma looked so beautiful at the event!
At the after party we got the first look at Salma’s wedding ring and she congratulated her good friend Penélope Cruz who became the first Spanish actress to win an Academy Award.

Is she or isn’t she attending the Oscars? That is the question. Just yesterday I posted about Harvey Weinstein’s confidence in Salma making an appearance and today a report with L.A. hairdresser-to-the-stars (and Salma’s personal hairdresser many times) Robert Vetica said that Salma isn’t attending the ceremony; but she will be at some after parties!
Q: Where will you be watching the Oscars this year?
A: I have to do Marion again, but then I have a feeling I’m gonna be at Salma’s house. She’s not going to the ceremony, but I’m gonna get her ready for the parties afterwards, so I’ll hang out there and watch the Oscars. She’s like family to me. We grew up together.

I know we’re all hoping Salma will attend this Sunday’s Oscar celebration but she has not officially been announced to or scheduled for presentation so it’s anyone’s guess at the moment.
Movie studio mogul Harvey Weinstein says he’s “sure” that newlywed Salma Hayek will be at the Oscars on Sunday. “I hope so — I’m sure,” he told OK.
Some have suggested Salma would go in support of Penélope Cruz, which very well could happen. Penélope recently announced in an interview she has her brother, sister, mom a best friend from Spain going with her for sure.
We’ll have to see on Sunday!

Today Salma attended a press conference for the second year launching of The One Pack by UNICEF And Pampers. Salma started her partnership with the cause last year and also visited Sierra Leone back in September. Read about her trip on the previous post and learn more about her involvement on the charities page.
Furthermore, ABC journalist Cynthia McFadden also traveled with Salma and has reported on the trip on her site Women on the Web. Saying “A good deed in a struggling world. It was an extraordinary trip, both painful and illuminating.” Her report is also airing on tonight’s Nightline (ABC at 11:35 PM, check your local listings). I’m going to watch and hopefully record if Salma is featured. But if I am unable to obtain the video, be sure to watch it yourself if you can.
I have to say, I although I became a fan of Salma as an actress first, her personality is what truly makes me adore her. Salma is one the few celebrities who seems fully genuine about the charities and organizations she supports, it’s truly admirable. Salma seems to have one of the biggest hearts!

 Actress and global spokesperson for the ‘One Pack = One Vaccine’ campaign, Salma Hayek, visited moms and babies during a trip to the African nation of Sierra Leone with Pampers and UNICEF. There, she witnessed firsthand the impact of the effects of Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus.
“When I traveled to Sierra Leone, I was faced with the devastation of tetanus. Witnessing the death of a newborn was unbearable. No mother should have to endure the loss of a child. No one should die of tetanus when prevention is so easy. With the purchase of specially-marked packages of Pampers diapers and wipes, we can help make a difference in saving lives. I witnessed, firsthand, how Pampers and UNICEF are working together to eliminate tetanus.” – Salma Hayek
At a press conference today in New York, Pampers was joined by actress, mother and “One Pack = One Vaccine” international spokesperson, Salma Hayek, to announce the continued success of the North American campaign, which provided funding for more than 45 million tetanus vaccines in 2008, and aims to raise funds for an additional 30 million tetanus vaccines this year. According to UNICEF estimates, 386 million vaccines are needed to wipe out tetanus in the 46 countries that have yet to eliminate the disease, and Pampers’ global goal over the next three years is to provide funding for more than half of the needed tetanus vaccines (200 million).
