JennyStar DVD Rentals "ARTIST OF
THE MONTH" FEATURE
The amazing Salma Hayek
was born in 1966, in the oil boomtown of Coatzacoalcos, Mexico.
Hayek has freely admitted that she and her brother 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 she wanted to become an actress. Her
education included a stint at a New Orleans convent school,
where she pulled pranks on the nuns by setting their clocks back
three hours. She was soon expelled. Only after attending Mexico
City's Universidad Iberoamericana did she feel ready to pursue
acting seriously.
At JennyStar DVD Rentals, we have
11 movies with
Salma Hayek.
Known outside her native country as the "Spanish
enchantress", Penélope Cruz Sánchez was born in
Madrid to Eduardo (a retailer) and Encarna (a hairdresser). As a
toddler, she was already a compulsive performer, re-enacting
TV commercials for her
family's amusement, but she decided to focus her energies on
dance. After studying classical ballet for nine years at Spain's
National Conservatory, she continued her training under a series
of prominent dancers. At 15, however, she heeded her true
calling when she bested more than 300 other girls at a talent
agency audition. The resulting contract landed her several roles
in Spanish TV shows and music videos, which in turn paved the
way for a career on the big screen.
