PopSugar — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 15:30:58 -0700

Penelope Cruz had a whirlwind weekend of promoting Broken Embraces in NYC. The Vogue cover girl stepped out in a black leather jacket on Friday and a striped shirt the next afternoon for errand-running, but by Saturday evening Penlope was decked out in a sparkly white gown to be honored at a dinner hosted by Paper magazine. Her late night didn't slow her down yesterday, when she did press in a plaid dress before switching into a gray gown for a premiere with director Pedro Almodovar. Her BFF Salma Hayek brought her husband Francois-Henri Pinault along to pose on the red carpet, though Penelope's own man Javier was off letting her shine in the spotlight solo as engagement rumors continue to circulate.

PopSugar — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 05:00:00 -0700

Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault happily walked down the aisle again on Saturday at Venice's opera house Teatro La Fenice. Salma looked gorgeous in a white Balenciaga wedding gown by Nicholas Ghesquiere. Valentina was a flower girl wearing a Bonpoint dress with Francois's children from his first marriage also participating in the black tie affair. They may have gotten married at a small ceremony on Valentine's Day but their glamorous second round of nuptials included about 150 of their close family and friends.

They kicked off the weekend with a masked rehearsal dinner on Friday and some of their celebrity guests wore their black and gold masks as they arrived to the wedding by boat on Saturday. Penelope Cruz wore a floor-length blue gown for the ceremony and changed into a black dress for the reception, with Javier Bardem as her date. Stuart Townsend and Charlize Theron also joined in on the festivities with Charlize transforming her dress from long to short halfway through. Lots more familiar faces were in the audience including Ed Norton, Bono, Ashley Judd and Anna Wintour. On Sunday the newlyweds had a farewell brunch after a romantic weekend of celebrating their life as husband and wife.

PopSugar — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 06:00:53 -0700

Salma Hayek brought Valentina to meet up with Penelope Cruz for lunch yesterday in LA. The BFFs are both so busy these days we don't get to see them together quite as much as we used to - especially since Salma has her daughter and family to take care of. Now, with the ongoing rumors that Penelope is expecting a baby with Javier Bardem, the longtime friends may be able to share motherhood like they have so much over the course of their friendship.

Vicky Cristina Barcelona and Its Stars Look Smoking Hot

Molly — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 06:01:00 -0700

The steamy stars of Vicky Cristina Barcelona did not disappoint, bringing a little bit of glamor to Hollywood last night for its big red carpet premiere. It's hard to say which of the lovely ladies looked most spectacular between Penelope in black, Salma in white, and Scarlett very much living up to her name. Night and day from her Teen Choice dress, but boo on no Ryan Reynolds again. Javier, sigh, so hot, enough said. Woody was there to stand with his exceptionally beautiful cast. At a press conference over the weekend he talked about the movie's hot scenes, saying, "They just kiss and kiss and kiss . . . And then when it's over, that's it. Lunch! And there you go. They're actors. There's nothing to it. They're kissing for a couple minutes, there, and I watch, and then it's over. And we move on to the next thing." Something tells me the viewers won't be so nonchalant watching all those scenes up on the big screen.

To see more from the premiere including Javier, Penelope, Scarlett, Salma, Woody, Soon-Yi, and others, just read more.

Penelope Not Too Bothered by Lesbian Rumors

PopSugar — Thu, 21 Dec 2006 15:40:39 -0800

Penelope and Salma have been BFF ever since Penelope came to the U.S. from Spain seven years ago. The two are often pictured arm in arm and their super close friendship has sparked rumors of a lesbian relationship. Penelope doesn't seem to take the rumors too seriously, and she can even remember exactly how they first started. She evidently grabbed Salma's behind at a press conference while they were promoting their film Bandidas. Here's more:

“I grabbed Salma’s ass just to keep things moving, because everyone was a little slow,” Cruz said while promoting her new film “Volver” reports Australia’s Courier Mail. “And, of course, the energy changed when I did that.”

The speculation in Hayek’s native Mexico is rampant. “There are magazine covers in Mexico describing us as these lesbians because of that,” Hayek said. “A lot of people were saying we were lovers.”

And then there’s the bit about Cruz saying that her “Head in the Clouds” co-star Charlize Theron was her best-ever on-screen kiss - despite kissing then main-squeeze Matthew McConaughey in the flick “Sahara.”

Wonder how Matthew feels about that one!

Penelope Continues to Laugh off Rumors

PopSugar — Wed, 10 Jan 2007 14:21:54 -0800

Penelope continues to joke about the rumors that her and Salma Hayek are lovers. Letterman sat her down last night and brought up the subject in a round about way. Penelope was talking about her love of photography which prompted David to show the audience a few pics that Penelope had taken of Salma for Interview magazine. This of course led to David delving a little further into their relationship. Here's more:

"That day was funny, because we are both very bossy, but that day I was, like, 'Today, I give the orders,'" she said, describing the day of the photo shoot. "So I put her in a swimming pool for hours and hours. And she behaved really well. She listened to everything."

Then Letterman brought out a photo of Hayek and Cruz on the red carpet at an unnamed event. In the shot, the two actresses were facing away from the camera. Noting Cruz's left hand on Hayek's derrière, Letterman said, "Here's somebody giving her the old hi-ho."

"You know what they've been saying because of that picture?" Cruz asked. "We are like sisters and we have some sense of humor. We did that in front of 100 photographers. And the story now is that we are lovers."

She added, "I'm sorry to say that is not the case."

It's great that Penelope can laugh off the whole thing so easily. If anything she seems to be embracing the racy rumors. That's one way to keep people talking! For pics just read more

Jen and John Cozy Up With Fellow Oscar Partiers at VF

PopSugar — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 08:30:30 -0800

Despite rumors that Graydon Carter was scaling things back for this year's Vanity Fair Oscars party, the soiree was as A-List as ever at its new venue the Sunset Towers. Jennifer Aniston could relax after her presenting duties, and when she and John Mayer hit the party, they couldn't keep their hands off each other. The couple cuddled up every chance they got, and he twittered a sweet message about her. Salma Hayek hugged her friend Penelope Cruz to celebrate her Supporting Actress win. Elsewhere, Jessica Alba and Kate Bosworth caught up with presenter Halle Berry to smile for the cameras, while Jake Gyllenhaal shared a moment with Reese Witherspoon.

The fans let loose quite the screams when Kate Winslet, the star of the night, hit the red carpet with her Oscar in hand. Once inside the party she shared it with fellow nominee Meryl Streep just a bit. Madonna had her own party to host with Demi Moore, but she also stopped by VF, where she showed off her toned arms. Apparently even Captain Sully made a surprise appearance at the bash, which may have been smaller than usual but didn't lack in the glamour department.

Indiana Jones And The Weekend At Cannes

PopSugarUK — Mon, 19 May 2008 03:00:00 -0700

This weekend at the Cannes Film Festival was ruled by the exciting premiere of Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull on Sunday night. All the stars showed up – sexy older man Harrison Ford, teen crush-magnet Shia LaBeouf and perfect Cate Blanchett – along with famous fans of the movie including on/off couple Kelly Brook and Billy Zane. Paz Vega showed up in a deep red dress channeling Dita Von Teese, Natalie Portman looked classic, and Rachel Leigh Cook turned a few heads in her bright pink number.

There was also a charity poker tournament over the weekend, where actors Edward Norton and Salma Hayek played Woody Harrelson and Goldie Hawn. Another Woody – Woody Allen – premiered his new movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona which is getting a lot of press for its Scarlett Johansson/Penelope Cruz kiss. It wasn't recreated on the red carpet though as Scarlett was not there to promote the movie – I bet that disappointed a lot of the guests!

Pretty Penelope Gets Honored

PopSugar — Fri, 03 Nov 2006 11:53:01 -0800

Last night AFI presented a tribute to Penelope Cruz for her latest film, Volver. She has walked the red carpet 101 times for this film but it paid off. Penelope is getting serious recognition for the role. Rumor is she may get an Oscar nom for this one. Eva Mendes, Eve, and BFF Salma Hayek all came to see the film and cheer on their pal Penelope. Here's more about the film:

The movie represents both a terrific coming of age and a chance to strut her stuff as a melodramatic diva and an earthy comedian. At 32 years of age, the actress makes a vibrant Raimunda, single mother to a teenage daughter, surviving on her own (with help from a bevy of fellow female hysterics and a ghostly mother) while stuffing a corpse into a freezer and hoarding the kinds of family secrets no Almodóvar movie can be without.

Cruz identifies very strongly with Raimunda. “She survived a lot of horrible things that have made her stronger, and she still has hope,” she says. “What I love about her is that she refused to become a victim.” Like her character, Cruz describes herself as “extremely strong for some things, extremely sensitive for others,” and, looking at that face, at once tentative, headstrong and vulnerable, one doesn’t doubt her.
