Nicole Kidman seemingly pushes Salma Hayek away during tense moment at Balenciaga fashion show
Nicole Kidman and Salma Hayek seemingly shared a tense moment at the Balenciaga show during Paris Fashion Week on Sept. 30.
A video of the “Big Little Lies” star and Hayek, 58, emerged online over the weekend and it appears to show the former pushing the latter’s hand away when they went to pose for photos with Katy Perry.
After a photographer asked for “one more” photo, Hayek used her hands to turn Kidman — who had her back facing the cameraman — toward the flashing lights.
And it was in that moment that the “Moulin Rouge!” actress grabbed Hayek’s hand and pushed it away.
She then gave Perry a kiss and exchanged a few words with the “Frida” star before walking away.
It’s not clear what the Australian actress, 57, and Hayek said to each other, but after Kidman walked away, Hayek said, “Yes please. Advice.”
Someone — presumably Kidman — then said, “You don’t need it,” to which Hayek replied, “I do.”
Hayek then posed for some photos with Perry, who seemed more into the photo shoot.
Kidman was seen wearing a black turtleneck dress with sheer tights, stilettos and sunglasses, while Hayek wore a black dress with a plunging neckline.
Kidman and Hayek’s reps did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
This was the first time Kidman had been seen in public since the death of her mother in early September.
The “Cold Mountain” star announced the death of her mom, Janelle Anne Kidman, just hours before being named best actress at the Venice Film Festival for her role in “Babygirl.”
As a tribute to her mother, Nicole took to Instagram to share photos and the following message: “My sister and I along with our family want to thank you for the outpouring of love and kindness we have felt this week.”
“Every message we have received from those who loved and admired our Mother has meant more to us than we will ever be able to express.”
“Thank you from our whole family for respecting our privacy as we take care of each other.”
Instead of attending the event at the film festival, Nicole flew home to be with her family in Australia.
Two weeks after Janelle’s passing, Nicole’s husband, Keith Urban, gave an update on their family while speaking to the Times of London.
“Yeah, everybody’s good, man,” the country singer, 56, said at the time.
