Famous Ladies You Never Knew Were BFFs

Salma Hayek and Penelope Cruz

Salma Hayek and Penelope Cruz have been friends for over 20 years. They met when their paths crossed a lot while auditioning for the same film roles. When Cruz moved the Los Angeles area to start her career in American movies, Hayek took her under her wing and introduced her to people and even gave her a place to stay.

They are so close, they have admitted to sharing a bed on numerous occasions as well as a pet name for each other, “huevos,” which translates to eggs. Hayek helped Cruz with her transition to American films as well as her homesickness, and hopefully, they found a better pet name for each other.
