Salma Hayek Perfectly Shut Down A Troll Who Offered Some Unsolicited Advice About Botox On Her Instagram

Salma Hayek recently posted a selfie on Instagram from a tropical locale looking gorgeous as always.

With the wind blowing through her hair, she hash-tagged her post with, #wind and #faire.


Unfortunately, one opinionated Instagram user, "atijfan," decided not to acknowledge the post with positivity.
Instead, the troll assumed Hayek had "too much Botox" and offered unsolicited advice by saying that the injections were "not needed."

The actress said she has not had Botox.

But even if she had, it is not anyone's business to pass judgement on someone who has had a cosmetic procedure. But that did not stop atijfan from being going after the Like a Boss actress.

But instead of submitting to indignation, the 53-year-old gracefully clapped back, with gratitude.

"I don't have Botox, but thank you for the advice because I was thinking maybe it's time."

For those wondering about her skin care regimen, she told PEOPLE in a June 2015 interview:

"I had a great mother who gave [beauty advice] to me, which is wash your face before you go to sleep — no matter what."
"She and my grandmother told me, 'You have to do this for yourself. Just think about how much faster you're going to age if you don't.'"

Whether the actress was making a joke or was contemplative, Hayek did open up about her true thoughts on Botox.

Spoiler alert: she is not into it.

@salmahayek/Insagram

She told PEOPLE:

"I don't believe in Botox, especially when [people] do it so young."
"They destroy themselves. They keep telling young girls, 'Do it young, so you never get wrinkles.'"

Hayek—who was 48 at the time of the interview—continued:

"No, your face is going to fall. You'll have to keep getting more and more and more each time. So if you're going to do it, I recommend doing it as late as you can."

Candace Owens Posts Screenshot Of Charlie Kirk's NSFW Dig At Meghan McCain—And Get Out The Popcorn

Conservative mouthpieces Candace Owens and Meghan McCain are feuding over the late far-right activist Charlie Kirk, and things got really messy after Owens shared one of Kirk's alleged text messages to her.

Kirk was assassinated in September while speaking at an event in Utah. In the months since, Owens has distanced herself from many figures on the far right, accusing them of exploiting his legacy—at times even sharing private communications she had with him.

Trump Just Responded To Top Counterterrorism Official's Damning Resignation Letter In Peak Trump Fashion

President Donald Trump was criticized for his response to the resignation of National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent over the war in Iran, saying the country "posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby."

Kent, a former Green Beret and political candidate with ties to right-wing extremists, was confirmed last July in a 52–44 vote to lead the National Counterterrorism Center, where he oversaw efforts to analyze and detect terrorist threats.

Gavin Newsom's Wife Claps Back Hard In Viral Video After Trump Mocks Newsom's Learning Disability

Jennifer Siebel Newsom—the wife of California Governor Gavin Newsom—criticized President Donald Trump after he claimed her husband's dyslexia should disqualify him from being president, calling Trump's comments "extremely ignorant and offensive."

Newsom has frequently spoken about living with dyslexia, a common learning disability that can make reading more difficult and affect spelling and speech. He has said he prefers not to rely on teleprompters because of the condition, and wrote in a recent memoir that, when he was younger, he overcompensated by memorizing “pretentious words.”

Gellar reveals reason for Buffy reboot ax

Sarah Michelle Gellar is finally pulling back the curtain on why Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s planned return was abruptly shut down—and the explanation is raising eyebrows.

In a new interview with People, Gellar pointed to a single Hulu executive who, she claims, simply didn’t like the original series, effectively halting the planned continuation show Buffy: New Sunnydale in its tracks—an ending that feels less like a heroic finale and more like a stake through a vampire’s heart.
