Salma Hayek forced Penelope Cruz to watch the Oscar nominations.
Penelope, who was staying at close friend Salma's Los Angeles home, had
planned to sleep through the nominations, having only flown into the city a
few hours before. Her hostess, however, had other plans.
Penelope said: "I had just arrived to Los Angeles very, very late at night,
and I had went to sleep (sic). Four hours later, I was at the house of some
of my girlfriends, and they woke me up. Actually, it was Salma Hayek. She
woke me up and said, 'We have to watch it live!' I said, 'That's such a big
risk!'"
Despite fears of jinxing her chances of a nomination, the actress soon
discovered her role in romantic comedy 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona' has put
her in the running for the Best Supporting Actress award.
She said: "We watched and then I heard the news - everything goes so fast!
An hour later, you have to start doing all these interviews and then you
spend all day working. I haven't had the time yet to digest or understand
it."
