Salma Hayek celebrated her 58th birthday with a pose on social media that left her followers speechless. The Mexican actress shared a series of images in which she showed that she is living a great personal present while enjoying a luxury vacation in a paradise destination.
Through her Instagram account, the Hollywood icon was seen in different images wearing various one-piece and two-piece swimsuits, with colorful prints, which enhanced her figure aboard a yacht with dreamlike settings as a backdrop. However, what caught the most attention on social media was the comment that the artist chose to accompany the images: “Birthday photos in a bikini… Happy 58th birthday to me! PS: None of these photos are from the past. #grateful,” she expressed in the text.
With this statement, the birthday girl made it clear that, despite the passage of time, she is willing to continue dazzling with her appearance and vitality. Hayek took the opportunity to reflect on her life and expressed her gratitude for reaching this happy and vital stage.
In the gallery of images in a swimsuit and on this very special date, the artist’s followers showered praise and congratulations on the person who has established herself as one of the most influential figures in both the film industry and the fashion world.
The actress has been outspoken in several interviews about her stance on aging, rejecting industry pressures to maintain a youthful appearance at any cost. Instead, Hayek advocates for a focus on well-being, and her post is not only a testament to her physical appearance, but also to her attitude and positive approach to life. For example, on more than one occasion the star has been able to show off her grey hair with pride, in keeping with other actresses who send a similar message.
Hayek was appointed in 2023 by the magazine Time as one of the 100 most influential people in the world, a recognition of her impact not only on cinema, but on popular culture in general. Penelope Cruz, one of her close friends and also a renowned actress, wrote about her for the publication: “Salma is strong but sensitive and can read people very well. As one of the first Latinas working in Hollywood, she has opened many doors for the people who followed her. She is a total revolutionary.”
Today, Hayek is enjoying her success and the life she has built, sharing moments from her personal life with her more than 28 million followers on social media, and is expected to return to the big screen with another hit very soon.
A few weeks ago, the actress was also caught by the paparazzi enjoying a few days of rest in Ibiza accompanied by her husband, François-Henri Pinault, in an idyllic setting. However, in the midst of relaxing, the actress had a scare when she fell into the water while getting off the motorboat that took her from a luxury yacht to the coast, although, fortunately, her partner reacted immediately and lent her a hand to help her.
Hayek began her career in Mexico before making the jump to Hollywood, where she quickly established herself as one of the most successful Latina actresses. Her starring role in Frida (2002), where she played the famous Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Actress, and she has since participated in a wide variety of film and television projects.
Beyond her talent as an actress, Hayek is also an active advocate for various social causes, and has used her platform to advocate for women’s rights, gender equality, and the empowerment of Latinx communities. In addition, she is a film producer and has worked in content creation.
