Salma Hayek isn’t in front of the cameras much, and the actress said bluntly this week that it’s because the Hollywood studios “don’t want me”.

“I received various awards for humanitarian work that I did, and I took part in several movies”.

The couple Wednesday on Valentine’s Day in 2009, and Salma explained that his seemingly harsh reaction was actually out of love and respect for her passions. The Prophet is based on the Lebanese poet Kahlil Kahran’s book of prose poetry of the same name, published in 1923. It’s uplifting. It’s respectful.

The Associated Press noted that Hayek said although she may not be receiving tons of movie offers these days, she is working on other projects that are important to her.

Although she admits that she has not been called too often lately, the actress nonetheless admits that she remains busy by getting involved in good causes, in addition to caring for her seven year old daughter, Valentina Pinault, and travel with her husband, French businessman Francois-Henri Pinault. That’s why we have the nursery rhymes and then we don’t give it to them anymore. “It’s their first language, they think in metaphor”, she added.

Will you be watching Salma Hayek’s special project? “They think in metaphor”.

When Modarresy-Tehrani asked for a specific moment she experienced discrimination, the Mexican-born actress said there are “just so many” but she specifically recalled an incident in a Los Angeles movie theater when the actress and a friend tried to sit in the center of the theater near another patron.

“You don’t look as bad as you thought you were going to look. So if you’re going to do it, I recommend doing it as late as you can”, Hayek said.

“I have a whole book that I could write about these moments, that are very memorable”, Hayek added. “It’s a myth. Forties are full of life”, she revealed.
