Two Hollywood stars proved that even in the world of fierce competition on the stage of world cinema there is a place for sincere female friendship. Each of them has reached unprecedented heights in their careers. The 56-year-old native of Mexico became the first representative of her country to be nominated for an Oscar. The forty-nine-year-old daughter of a car mechanic and a hairdresser was the first Spaniard to win the world’s highest film award. Salma and Penelope are recognized icons of beauty and style, they collaborate with leading brands and global fashion houses.
The stars got close in 2006 on the set of the movie “Bandidas” and have been in a close relationship ever since. Even at the Met Gala-2023 party, the actresses got together. Salma revealed unusual photos with Penelope. She appeared in black silk pyjamas while her boyfriend was dressed in a floral print blouse and high waisted jeans.
At the “Fashion Oscars”, Hayek showed how beauty experts prepare her for her appearance – they give massages, face masks, stick eye patches and other procedures. At that moment, Cruz just sat and watched these manipulations. In other photos, the two actresses were hugging each other warmly, sitting on the couch and talking animatedly about something.
The Mexican actress complimented her Spanish colleague. “The morning before the Met Gala. Some work hard and go through many steps to prepare for a great outing on the track. And some people just wake up beautiful,” Hayek said wryly, noting Cruz.
The warm relationship between the two movie stars pleased Allicia Milano, Paris Hilton and other stars. Users addressed the actresses with touching words. “This is true friendship”, “It’s so sweet, I even had tears in my eyes”, “Two beautiful women, each talented and divine in their own way”, “Only truly beautiful, happy and strong people can be such sincere friends, without envy and fake”, “Your friendship is so beautiful, you look like sisters,” they wrote in the comments.
By the way, both actresses looked stunning at the star-studded event in New York. Their pictures were recognized as some of the most successful. Salma posed for the cameras in a bright red latex dress that accentuated her svelte figure. Penelope chose an iconic vintage wedding dress by Karl Lagerfeld, in whose memory the Met Gala-2023 party was dedicated.
