Salma Hayek, the Mexican American actress and producer has been relating some blood-curdling tales about Harvey Weinstein’s behaviour on the set of Frido, her breakthrough movie which garnered her multiple awards and nominations. She described him as a bully and a master manipulator and said in an interview: “I don’t think he hated anything more than the word ‘no’… And with every refusal came Harvey’s Machiavellian rage.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/how-harvey-weinstein-and-donald-trump-retaliated-against-salma-hayek
Born 2 September 1966 in Mexico, she’s a Sun, Mercury, Uranus, Pluto in Virgo; with a charming Venus in Leo square Neptune in Scorpio. His ruthless Pluto (square Mars in vengeful Scorpio) is conjunct her Venus with his Mars conjunct her Neptune, so he would be attracted to her and want to control her, but find her Neptunian evasions enraging. Venus at odds with Mars also points to an insensitivity in approach. Plus her Saturn in Pisces is conjunct his Sun, so she’d put barriers up against him; and his autocratic Saturn square Uranus bounced off her Aries Moon.
Their relationship chart has an argumentative composite Sun Mercury square Mars; and a struggle-for-the-upper-hand Pluto square Jupiter; and a chained-together-and-resenting-it Saturn trine Pluto, since she was committed to the movie and couldn’t get out.
I think Salma is an amazing woman and actress and the film, Frida, is one of my all-time favourites. Interesting when she played Frida Kahlo one her female love interest in the film was played by Ashley Judd, one of the first women to bring Weinstein down. Apparently, he wanted a full on lesbian scene between the two in the film but Salma thought it unnecessary and put her foot down.
I knew she had worked with Weinstein and had been pictured with him on many occasions and I had wondered if anything had transpired between them. Her not saying anything (either about the women or ‘friendship’ with Harvey) as the sex-scandal blew wide-open made me think perhaps they were friends and that was disappointing. Glad she has finally come out and told her side and further exposing him as an absolute abomination of a man. Hope he goes to prison for a long time. What’s the score count of the women who have exposed him? 50+ and still counting?
Just read through some of the article and he did make her go through with the sex scene with Ashley! Yet, I do not recall their sex scene in the film, only a kiss after they do a dance together. Pervert probably kept that scene to himself and his pals, like Trump.
Salma is married to François-Henri Pinault, chairman and CEO of luxury conglomerate Kering, with a net worth of 23.7 billion US$ (and growing, since especially Gucci and Saint-Laurent in that portfolio are hot brands and solid moneymakers right now). She can affort calling Weinstein out.
