Salma Hayek Married!

Sassy Smith — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 14:08:00 GMT

Happy Valentine's Day: Salma Hayek and French businessman Francois-Henri Pinault have reportedly tied the knot in France on February 14.

The couple, who started dating in May 2006, exchanged vows at the city hall of the Sixth Arrondissement in St. Germaine, Paris.

Hayek and Pinault had called off their engagement last summer, but were seen getting cozy again in December. Sources said they were "very affectionate" at the Dubai Film Festival.

Salma, who did a stint on "30 Rock," admitted she was thinking of Pinault as she was kissing Alec Baldwin in the love scenes that they shared. She said, "I keep telling Francois, 'I imagine I was kissing you.'"

Salma, 43, and Francois, 46, have a daughter together - Valentina, 16 months. Maybe she was their flower girl?

Congrats to the happy family and maybe they'll be hearing the pitter-patter of more little feet!

Video: Salma Hayek Makes Daughter Proud, Breastfeeds African Baby

Sassy Smith — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 12:05:00 GMT

Salma Hayek, a UNICEF spokesperson, recently visited war-torn Sierra Leone, and the 42-year-old actress didn't hesitate to breastfeed a baby boy after his mom was unable to. Hayek said her own baby, daughter Valentina, would be very proud of her.

Video after the jump!

Said Hayek of breastfeeding the other woman's child, "I actually think my baby would be very proud to be able to share her milk and when she grows up I will make sure she continues to share and be generous caring person."

Salma actually recalled a similar story about her great-grandmother, who had also helped out a woman in a similar situation.

Hayek explained, "My great-grandmother was in a Mexican village and they found a woman in the street inconsolably crying and the baby was also crying, crying, crying.

"My great-grandmother went up to her and said, 'What is the matter?' and the mother said, 'She is very, very hungry and I have no more milk.'

"And in the street my great-grandmother took the baby and breastfed that baby who instantly stopped crying and went peacefully to sleep.

"It was amazing (to breastfeed another child) because I was really impressed by (my great-grandmother's) story. I'm here in Sierra Leone and I was able to feed a baby that was very hungry."

Amazing! Watch the video:

Salma Hayek Can't Kick Her Addiction

Sassy Smith — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 20:07:00 GMT

We told you a few months ago about Salma Hayek's addiction. The 42-year-old actress has tried to give "it" up but so far, she's not had any luck. But honestly, she really doesn't want to stop. She's hooked - on what you ask? Well, let me tell you...

....she's crazy about breastfeeding!

The Latin beauty said she feels "like an alcoholic" when breastfeeding her daughter Valentina, now 16 months-old.

Said Hayek, "It is the best thing you can do for your child, not only the bonding, that's how you build the immune system, so in a country like Africa imagine how important it is for the mothers to do that." Salma is a Unicef activist, and she recently breastfed a starving child of a Sierra Leone refugee who wasn't able to express milk.

Salma also says that there's a misconception that breastfeeding moms can't have a sex life. "There is a belief that if you are breastfeeding you cannot have a sexual life, so the husbands of these women are really encouraging them to stop and this is just a taboo."

So, how long do you think she'll breastfeed Valentina? Is there a "right" age to stop?

Salma Hayek Is An Addict

Salma Hayek is addicted. She can't help herself. She can't stop. She doesn't want to stop. But she's probably like a lot of moms with their first baby....

Salma, 42, is addicted to breastfeeding her daughter, nearly 14-month-old Valentina. The actress told Style Magazine, "I'm like an alcoholic. It is like, I don't care if I cry, I don't care if I am fat, I am just going to do it for one more week, one more month, and then when I see how much good it is doing her and I can't stop.

"The myth that says you lose all this weight when you breastfeed! That is so not true! It's like, please, will everyone stop telling me I look really well."

Were you like that with your baby? How long did you breastfeed? Do you think there's a "right" age to stop or is it an individual thing? What about the mom in the video below - her daughter is almost 8-years-old and she's still being breastfed....perfectly acceptable or creepy?

Salma Hayek's Baby Daddy Has Sexy Romp With Other Woman

Wow that was fast. The relationship barely had time to get cold and already Salma Hayek's baby daddy, billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault was seen giving a little mouth to mouth to equestrian Virginie Couperie.

More photos after the jump

Just one month after the Salma and Francois-Henri called off their engagement, money bags Pinault was seen on a sexy holiday romp with his new squeeze.

Pinault and Couperie enjoyed a carefree day on his yacht and made no bones about showing their affection towards one another.

Salma's been seen around L.A. with their daughter, 11-month-old Valentina Paloma and hopefully she's over the guy - seriously, he's mega rich but lacks in sex appeal - well to each his own I guess.

No offense to Ms. Couperie but Salma's way hotter.
