Salma Hayek's Daughter Was Amazed By Her Beard In 'The Vampire's Assistant'
Salma Hayek’s daughter was “fascinated” with her fake beard. The 'Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant' actress - who plays a bearded lady in the fantasy-adventure movie – said her daughter Valentina Paloma wasn’t worried about seeing her with facial hair despite being just seven months old at the time. She is quoted by movie website IESB.net as saying:
“She saw me with a beard. She understands it is make-up. She was seven months old and she was not freaking out. I explained the process to her, and she saw it and was fascinated with it, but she knew not to touch it because it was fake.
“She was with me the whole time, and I had to show it to her, or I wouldn't have seen her the whole day. I couldn't put it on and take it off."
This is not the first time the 43-year-old actress – who raises two-year-old Valentina Paloma with husband Francois-Henri Pinault – has had to sport stubble for a role.
She previously played mono-browed artist Frida Kahlo in the 2002 blockbuster ‘Frida’.
Salma recently admitted she is getting fed up with hairy roles.
“I've been a vampire in a movie, and I've been in love with a vampire in another movie, and yet I have no fascination whatsoever with vampires. It just so happened to be a vampire project and it also just happened to have facial hair, and it's the third time I've done some kind of freak facial hair in a movie!"
LOL! That is so funny how Salma has hit on two themes several times in her career. Now, she needs to play a hairy vampire who's in love with another vampire and we will be all set.

Salma Hayek And Daughter Have Lunch In LA
Salma Hayek and her daughter, Valentina, had lunch in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon. Salma looked cute and conservative in a pair on dark denim jeans and a black tank, but added flair with an engine red handbag. Love it!
Unfortunately these set of pictures don't show how much of a cutie Valentina is now. You can already tell she's going to look a lot like mommy.

Salma Hayek's Wedding Turned Into A Sing-Along!
Salma Hayek's big wedding festivities were this past weekend and it sounds like the celebration was a good one. Her guest list was totally star-studded, but the A-listers weren't too cool for a good old fashioned kareoke party!
The music kicked in during the ceremony, when the 150 guests – among them Penélope Cruz, Javier Bardem, Ed Norton, Woody Harrelson, Charlize Theron, Stella McCartney and Ashley Judd – serenaded the couple with a Hawaiian-style version of the sentimental classic from The Wizard of Oz, "Over the Rainbow."
You have to love it! I can only imagine how hilarious that must have been! Salma got in on the action too!
Later at the elegant reception, Hayek, Theron and Harrelson joined Bono
and Damien Rice on stage for a rendition of something bouncy: "Stand By
Me."
Charlize and Stella also treated the guests to "Don't Cry For Me Argentina."
Forget the paparazzi photos, can we get a video of this please?!?

Salma Hayek Enjoys Pre-Wedding Festivities With Friends And Family
How much fun!! Salma Hayek and Francois Henri Pinault threw a masquerade themed pre-wedding dinner the night before they renewed their vows in Italy. Their daughter Valentia Paloma Pinault looked like she really was enjoying the masks!
Their location of choice? Punta Della Dogana, one of Venice’s most historic buildings.
The Carnival in Venice-style masked ball was held inside a white tent in the courtyard with many guests, including Charlize Theron and boyfriend Stuart Townsend, wearing black Venetian masks. Also in attendance were former French president Jacques Chirac and wife Bernadette. Others expected at the celebration are Penélope Cruz, Ashley Judd, Luis Miguel and Lucy Liu.
The site of the rehearsal dinner has been used by Venetian merchants since the 15th century. After the buildings fell into disrepair, the city awarded the lease to Pinault's father, who has since spent $70 million on renovations. The structure will open to the public as the Pinault Foundation Centre for Contemporary Art on June 6.
Sounds magical! Venice as a whole is an amazing city by itself - what a night it must have been.

Fred Segal Gets A Reality TV Show
No, not the person: the Fred Segal Store will have its own reality TV show on Bravo. Filming will occur at the Santa Monica location, which is reportedly popular with celebrities, including Isla Fischer, Hilary Duff, Rihanna, Salma Hayek, Kate Beckinsale, Audrina Patridge and Lauren "Lo" Bosworth.
Fred
Segal is a legendary retail haven synonymous with high fashion and
style, and the fashionistas who work, shop and gossip at the store
promise to have arresting, entertaining, colorful personalities and
lives."
The show will reportedly focus on " the oft-stressed and competitive sales team
as they cater to well-to-do customers who demand the latest in
clothes, shoes, accessories and beauty products."
When I first read this, I thought this was going too far! A store gets a reality TV show? Yet, as I think about it, it makes perfect sense if you like clothes and celebrities (which I do ;)
Are you interested?
