No holds barred! Popular Hollywood actress has opened up about s*x, motherhood and the secret to a successful marriage in her new cover story for Red magazine’s July issue.
49-year-old Mexican-American film actress, Salma Hayek who married French billionaire, Francois-Henri Pinault in 2009, has opened up in the July issue of Red magazine and ruled out s*x as the secret to a successful marriage, admitting that what happens in the bedroom isn’t critical to making it work with her husband.
“S*x is not the key to a happy marriage, but it’s a side effect. Although not every day! If it’s every day then it loses its charm. It’s so important to maintain your chemistry. You have to continue to laugh, continue to explore, continue to have fun with each other, continue to have romance.”
Speaking on how she keeps it steamy in the bedroom, the Oscar-nominated actress explains that it’s important to feel s*xy, which sometimes can be difficult when feeling insecure.
“Even though I struggle every moment with my own judgment of my body, I’m in touch with myself. I try to be really aware of every muscle. It is sexy.
“Sexuality, what other people see in you, is enjoying your body. Involve your senses in your life, and you will become sexy. Dance, and not to look good. If you dance terribly, still dance.
“It might in the moment not look sexy, but this interaction with life makes you sexy. And even if you’re on a diet, enjoy your food – please! It’s a very Latin point of view.”
The actress says she’s most proud of her personal life. “A good marriage, full of love, is my biggest accomplishment. Home is where my husband is. He is home. Everything outside of the family nucleus is an adventure that you’re living together.”
