The amazing Salma Hayek was born on September 2, 1966, in the oil boomtown of Coatzacoalcos, Mexico. Hayek has freely admitted that Salma Hayek and her brother, Sami, were spoiled rotten by her well-to-do Lebanese-Mexican businessman father and her Mexican-born opera-singing mother.
After having seen Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) in a local movie theatre, Salma decided Salma Hayek wanted to become an actress. Her education included a stint at a New Orleans convent school, where Salma Hayek pulled pranks on the nuns by setting their clocks back three hours.
