Salma Hayek - half lesbian?!?

by

Talk about an ‘open mouth, insert foot’ moment. A British talk show host who misunderstood Salma as to say she was “half lesbian” asked the actress flat off if she was.

The host Eamonn Holmes asked Salma about her last name and said it didn’t sound very Mexican. Salma then said she was half-Lebanese - that is her father is from Lebanon. Holmes misunderstood and thought she had said she was half-lesbian and then asked her if she was. Salma remained cool and calm to the question. She leaned over and spoke very slowly the word “Lebanese.” Holmes then apologized for the faux pas.

The Northern Irish Holmes might have been having trouble understand Salma’s Mexican accent. However, some are questioning whether he actually misunderstood. Anyway, it seems the whole incident played out well with Salma handling the question like a pro and keeping her cool.

Salma was on the TV show to promote her joint efforts with UNICEF and Pampers to eradicate tetanus in mothers and babies in the next five years. She has been in Europe for the past month getting the word about this effort. Joining her on her trip is her one year old daughter Valentina.

In other Salma news, look for her to make a guest appearance on ‘30 Rock.’ Tina Fey asked Salma to do a guest role for 1 to 2 episodes. She will not be portraying herself but a fictional character. Salma joins an impressive list of guest stars to the NBC hit that include Jerry Seinfeld and Oprah Winfrey. She could be on the show as early as this week. It will be nice to see Salma on the small screen. Hopefully soon she will make an on screen return to ‘Ugly Betty.’
