Hollywood actors Nicole Kidman and Salma Hayek recently went viral due to a moment captured at the Baleniaga FW show on September 30, which some viewers considered tense. However, an insider shared with People that the situation has been misrepresented.
In a video circulating online, Nicole and Salma were posing for photos with singer-songwriter Katy Perry. During the conversation, Salma placed her hand on Nicole’s arm and was trying to adjust her position in front of the camera. Nicole then gently removed Salma’s hand and turned to hug Katie, sharing a few words with Salma before walking away.
“At the end of the show he was being bombarded by cameras in the middle of a conversation. People are watching the clip and making up stories out of nothing,” the insider said.

Previously, lip readers and body language experts were used by outlets to understand what was being said between celebrities. According to Page Six Piece and UK-based lip reading expert Jeremy Freeman, Salma is believed to be saying to Nicole, “Let’s turn over there, okay, over here.” The Big Little Lies star responded, “Hey, I’m fine, I’m good. There, that’s enough, that’s okay.” After this, Salma placed her hand on Katie’s shoulder and said, “We have to do it.” Salma then said, “It’s fine, it’s fine,” and directed Katy to look at the photographers.
While some observers interpreted the conversation as icy, others rightly noted that such moments are often blown out of proportion under the scrutiny of public attention. The high-pressure atmosphere of a fashion show can lead to misinterpretations, especially when captured in brief clips.
Although they may not be the closest of friends, Kidman and Hayek have a remarkable relationship. Kidman recently became the face of Baleniaga, part of luxury conglomerate Kering led by Hayek’s husband, François-Henri Pinault. Additionally, Hayek has a longtime friendship with Kidman’s ex-husband, Tom Cruise, which stemmed from working with him on the 2006 film. ask the dust,
A source close to the actors commented, “This whole situation is stupid. Salma and Nicole love and respect each other.
