About Me
Hola my name is Salma Hayek Jiminez
i'm from Mexico i grew up there and then moved to L.A where i got my carrer on the rise!i was born in Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, Mexico to a Lebanese father and a Mexican mother of Spanish descent. Raised in a wealthy, devoutly Catholic family, i was sent to the Academy of the Sacred Heart, Grand Coteau Louisiana, at the age of 12. i was also an accomplished gymnast, with aspirations of becoming an Olympic competitor.At the age of 23, i landed the title role in Teresa (1989), a successful telenovela (Mexican soap opera) which earned my star status in her native country. Later, in 1994, i starred in El Callejón de los Milagros ("The Alley of Miracles"), which has won more awards than any other movie in the history of Mexican Cinema.I dated fellow actor Edward Norton for four years, between 1999 and 2003, and then Josh Lucas from 2003 until 2004. Concerning marriage I've said, "Women have been taught that in order to have a place in the world, an identity, they must marry and have children. If that's the life you truly want, great. But for many women, marriage is only about needing the world to know that someone desires them enough to say, 'Here's a contract to prove that I love you and will commit to you for the rest of my life.' For these women, no contract equals no validation - and, thus, no reason for existing." Currently i'm single and has homes in Los Angeles and Mexico!! i am now fluent in English, Spanish, Arabic, and Portuguese!!This layout was made by Awesome Layouts By Katie layout made by:Awesome Layouts by Katie
