Salma Hayek dazzled on the red carpet at the 95th Academy Awards in a custom-made burnt orange sequined Gucci dress. However, it was what happened after she got home that really caused a stir on the internet.
The actress, who is 56 years old, stripped off her dress in her kitchen and ate a piece of chicken in a suggestive manner while revealing her unzipped gown and bare back to the camera. Salma’s friend, who was filming the clip, jokingly commented, “Expectation versus reality”. Salma posted the video to her Instagram account, saying, “Happy to keep the glamour going but first things first [sic]”.
Salma’s fans were quick to applaud her boldness. Although it was not as sizzling as her striptease in From Dusk Till Dawn, where she faced her snake phobia by writhing semi-naked with a python around her neck, it was still appreciated. Antonio Banderas, Salma’s friend of 27 years and co-star in Desperado and Puss in Boots, posted a laughing emoji, and Suki Waterhouse liked the post. One follower even commented, “Even her back is perfect”.
Salma attended the 95th Academy Awards with her 15-year-old daughter, Valentina Paloma Pinault, and presented the award for Best International Feature Film alongside Antonio Banderas.
She was praised as one of the best-dressed celebrities at the Oscars thanks to her sparkling orange halter-neck sequin-embroidered gown. The gown was cinched at the waist and fringed at the bottom, and Salma worked with celebrity stylist Rebecca Corbin-Murray to achieve the glamorous look.
Salma is married to François-Henri Pinault, CEO of the luxury fashion group Kering. The couple regularly makes a stunning appearance on the red carpet. Salma arrived at the Saint Laurent pre-Oscars party in Los Angeles with Francois and her 22-year-old stepdaughter Mathilde.
She wore a stunning sheer blouse by Yves Saint Laurent, paired with a black velvet tailored jacket, wide-legged trousers, and pillar-box red lipstick. The party was hosted by Saint Laurent’s creative director, Anthony Vaccarello, and was attended by Olivia Wilde, Jennifer Coolidge, and Zoe Kravitz.
Fans were quick to commend Salma’s look, with one follower commenting, “Just gorgeous. The red lipstick takes me back to your look in the 90s. Like your look in Desperado with Antonio Banderas. Beautiful!”.
Salma is known for her pre-Oscars beauty regimes. She recently gave her fans a glimpse into her routine, which includes tucking into chicken soup while wearing a Japanese-style kimono dressing gown and a golden face mask. She believes that beauty is essential, but eating is even more so.
