At this point I am not even 100% sure that Salma Hayek is an actual human being and not some sort of android sent back here from the future. Not only does the 50-year-old appear to have stopped aging somewhere around her late twenties, she’s still got the energy, drive and passion of someone around that same age as well.
I mean, just look at her here “having dinner” over at Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s house.
“When your friends invite you for dinner and you end up doing all the work,” she captioned the photo which clearly, and rightfully so, shows her Hitman’s Bodyguard co-star Reynolds applauding in the background.
As if that wasn’t enough, Hayek said in a recent interview with The Edit…
“I am better with exercise, I am better with food, but I am still not where I should be; I am getting older and I still don’t have the discipline. I always find excuses for myself – and they’re all brilliant, by the way. I will sometimes say, ‘I am 50 years old! Why do I have to look good? I already got my guy!’”
She also said that, to her, the worst part of the aging process is not wrinkles, like the rest of us mere mortals, but her eyes. “I’m such a visual person and [now] I cannot read without depending on glasses, and I lose them everywhere,” said Hayek. “I never hear other people complaining about their glasses. I really resent having to depend on my glasses to look at the world. It has been really, really sad.”
And yet, here she was over the weekend, in a bikini looking like, as I said, someone about half her age…
One of her other co-stars in The Hitman’s Bodyguard, Samuel L. Jackson, knows what I mean…
“Sam you are supposed to be looking at the camera when we get our picture taken,” Hayek captioned the photo.
Hilarious.
