As if the world needed any more reasons to love Salma Hayek, the sexy Mexican actress recently opened up to Harper's Bazaar magazine to share how she always keeps herself looking so good…and her tips are definitely not what you expect.
Whereas most Hollywood stars would credit intense exercise or diets for their youthful appearances, Hayek says she takes a very different approach. So what exactly is her secret?
Eating lots of food and drinking wine! She explains:
I am on the limit of chubbiness because I love my food and my wine. It's not the best for fashion, but it's good for my mood. I am happy because I eat. I am 46—I will not have Botox.You know why? Because I eat! I eat the fat, I eat the vegetables, I eat everything. If you exercise too much and you don't eat enough, it takes its toll on the skin. Everything starts aging. And you know what? You look miserable.
Love it! Though I'm sure her culture has something to do with her ideas (we all know Latinas appreciate good food and decent wine), it's so refreshing to see a celebrity FINALLY admit that there actually are benefits to enjoying meals without always counting every single calorie. I'm not saying that indicate people should go crazy, give up all exercise and eat everything in sight but constantly worrying about your weight and your diet will only prevent you from living your life. So why do it?
Plus, Hayek is hardly "on the limit of chubbiness. Seriously, what world is she living in to call herself that?! In fact, if anything, her laidback approach has obviously done wonders because she looks downright amazing!
