THE INTERVIEW

“Irealize now that I've hoped to be great - as an
actress, as a mother - because I want to embody the
greatness of women who didn't get to be all they
could have been. Their dignity, their courage, and
their brilliance make me strive to be better. They're a part of me.”
In September 2007, Hayek and French businessman François-
Henri Pinault had a daughter, Valentina Paloma. Pinault and
Hayek married on Valentine’s Day 2009. Pinault is CEO of
Kering which represents fashion and luxury labels such as Stella
McCartney and Alexander McQueen.
Hayek considers herself a late bloomer and believes that “success
can happen at any time and at any age. You can get your body
in shape like it's never been before. You can have a spiritual
awakening and discover a new side of yourself. And best of all,
love can happen at any age. Life can just start to get exciting
when you're in your 40s and 50s. You have to believe that.”

“What is important is to believe in
something so strongly that you're

never discouraged.”

-Salma Hayek
