Es nuestra maxima figura del espectaculo Mexicano.Una mujer con muchos pantalones y con un corazon enorme.Orgulloso de ella como de ninguna otra estrella.Entro a Televisa en el tiempo donde puras weras eran protagonistas y triunfo sobre todas ellas,pero no se conformo y se fue a triunfar a Hollywood y lo hizo! Para mi es mas grande que Maria Felix y menos mamona,Arriba Salma Hayek!!!

[@lakeboww]

She is inspirational.

[@MrChrist1970]

Good for Salma! I meet her in California, USA when she was trying to start as an actress . . . She is intelligent because she took each opportunity she had. Now Salma is a woman with power, economically and socially. Perhaps, too many can say "things" against her because she could do things that no too many can do!

[@MrChrist1970]

EmptyMan000 Hi, like I said . . . Many could like her and many others no! She is an intelligent woman because she could stayed in México just being one more of the too many other actresses doing soap-operas with Televisa. I am agreed with your opinion, she is not a real actress, instead she is a fantastic socialite but the difference that she did that starting getting married with a wealthy man from Europe. Also, that she is taken advantage of her heritage ethnicity that is true, I remember when she was in California, USA during interviews emphasizing that her grandparents were from Spain. She did what she had to do to reach her goals and she is there now. As an immigrant I know how difficult it is to gain a place into society. She is rich, famous and pretty, perhaps this is not the goals of dreams of many but for her those were and she made it. She is there my friend! Happy new year 2016 for you and thanks for sharing your opinion!

[@EmptyMan000]

+Chris Alberto Who would want to stay in Mexico when they are not limited by constraints, economic or otherwise? She takes advantage of a lie. Some grandparents are from Spain, so she associates with it. Some grandparents are Lebanese, so she says she associates with them too. She plays up the ethnicity card to boost her image. Who cares if she reached her own entitled self-aggrandizing goals, if she has to look foolish and coquettish doing so? Plus immigrant or not, we all have problems fitting in to some degree. Especially minority groups, so don't use your status as an immigrant to make your issues seem unique.

[@MrChrist1970]

EmptyMan000 MMMM . . . Interesting! Yes, Salma is playing her own puzzle background . . . and she is saying that, She knows how to take advantage for her own good. She can play as the "Méxican Latina" but in her words "Not well accepted because she was different" and she can play as the successful "Méxican immigrant" and also she plays now as the "Mestiza Arabian" Etc . . . Having saying all of these . . . I understand your point of view! Perhaps you are not giving credit to the people´s point of view who understand how difficult is to gain a place in the USA society. I am from California, My family never crossed the border, the border crossed them . . . Even though, I am still called immigrant! So, from your point of view, it is understandable that being an immigrant is anything to show success. For some people this lady made possible what she wanted to be: "A well known socialite" Anything is free in the world . . . Many people from México heates her or dislikes from her . . . but the true is obvious, She took advantage of every opportunity she had . . . and she is still doing it! So, why we shouldn´t give her credit for it. Thank for sharing your thoughts . . . Big hugs from a distance!

[@EmptyMan000]

+Chris Alberto We shouldn't because it feeds her already astronomical sized ego. You misunderstand everything I've said. I give immigrants credit but I don't act like their struggles are unique. They make it seem like being an immigrant is a badge of honor and struggle that gives them a right to act they please. It is not appropriate and what Salma Hayek does is offer a twisted image of hope for those gullible people who look up to her. She makes them think she can relate to them when she really does not. I'm trying to tell you she is tricking you to feed her own arrogance.

Shes Beautiful in every way, intelligent, inspiring, her voice is gorgeous and her accent is sexy. She's a strong character and I really admire her. But she's Naive... or maybe she's being very careful what she says, because American media for kids is not designed to benefit them. It's not that they don't think they're interested in philosophy and poetry... it's that they don't want to teach them anything constructive. Watch Dave Chapelle talk about sesame street, how it teaches children to judge people and you'll have an idea what I mean.
