The Puss in Boots star, 44, says that while it's "nice" being married to a billionaire, she makes her own way:

    "I work hard, I make my own living and I love it. I like having financial independence. I don't ever want to have to depend on anyone completely."


Pinault, 49, is CEO of a company that owns several fashion labels, but Salma says her husband doesn't support her, and doesn't tell her how to dress either.

    "I’m still a Mexican. I like to play fashion with him, but I'm nobody's Barbie."


Pinault is currently in an expensive custody battle with ex Linda Evangelista.
