Salma Opens Up

Sultry Salma Hayek recently opened up about marriage, motherhood, and the secret behind her Golden Globes look.
“I don't know if it's motherhood that's surprising or that Valentina is so surprising. I am in awe of her—she's very magical,” Hayek told InStyle. “ I feel so connected to her but at the same time I discover something new about her every day.” She admitted that despite the mother-daughter connection, the two are “completely different.”
Hayek has always been tight-lipped about her now-husband Francois-Henri Pinault (the two were married on Valentine’s Day in Paris months after they reunited). While she simply left her comments about her billionaire beau to “he’s the best”, she did offer and example of why he was the lucky man to win the Latina’s heart.
“The truth is…that dress was picked by Francois. Francois was my stylist,” Hayek said regarding her figure-hugging Golden Globes dress. “"It was Christmas, and I was just overwhelmed with so many things to do. He said, 'Let me help you. How can I help?' And I said, 'Well, I have to pick a dress for the Golden Globes.' So Bottega Veneta sent swatches and sketches, and Francois worked with the designer Tomas Maier, and he took care of everything."
