Salma Hayek is revealing more than just her cleavage for Spain's V Magazine. The sexy Latina is opening up about her citizenship telling the mag:
"I was an illegal immigrant in the United States. It was for a small period of time, but I still did it."
The gorgeous Mexican actress, 44, who says she experienced racism while trying to build her career, says:
"I had to endure the worst time of all in terms of racial discrimination in Hollywood when I first started out. It was inconceivable to American directors and producers that a Mexican woman could have a lead role."
Hayek is now considered the most powerful Latino star in Hollywood. Guess success is the best revenge.

Nicole Richie was snapped leaving a last minute wedding meeting in LA this afternoon, and the starlet ditched her dark and sweaty gym clothes and slipped into something a little sexier. And those legs? Is it possible that the hot mama is training for a triathlon? We can't remember the last time we saw her looking this fit!
Nicole is set to tie the knot with baby daddy Joel Madden this weekend at her father Lionel's Beverly Hills estate, so it looks like she's getting everything ironed out before her big day. How exciting!

Angelina Jolie is one of the most photographed women in the world, but when it comes to her kids being photographed, the A-list actress remains cautious when cameras are around.
During an interview on Larry King Live, Jolie, 35, tells King:
"I do hope there will at some point be laws about how close they can get to children with cameras because I think at some point, it's gonna be clearer that it's emotionally not healthy."
As for how she explains the paparazzi to her six kids, Angie adds:
"Well, we try not to get them into the middle of it... but when they do, we just have to kind of smile and say, 'Don't worry, it's not scary. They just like to take pictures. As a parent, the only thing you can do is try to make sure that they don't feel it's a threat, you don't act like it's a threat, and you just keep smiling so they don't feel anything negative."
Jolie is currently promoting The Tourist also starring Johnny Depp.

No really, we do!
Big Love starlet Daveigh Chase was snapped leaving Supperclub in LA last night, and she flashed us a sweet smile, a bit of tongue and her middle finger as she smoked a cigarette. Talk about multi-tasking -- and looking hot while doing it! We wish we could could yank that cancer stick out of her hand though...

Here's the first production still from Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, and Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz make quite the pair!
As Captain Jack Sparrow searches for the Fountain of Youth in this installment of the uber successful film franchise, he's tempted by a former flame (played by Penelope Cruz) and her wicked father, Blackbeard. Sadly, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley aren't in the movie, but it sounds like there is plenty of drama to keep us occupied!

There were some amazing movies released in 2010, and with the Academy Awards fast approaching, fans and critics have been buzzing about the possible Best Picture nominees. So what were our favorite films?
We loved Leonardo DiCaprio in Inception, but newcomer Jesse Eisenberg won us over with his portrayal of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network, so it's going to be a tough one! TRON was a total eyegasm when it came to special effects, and Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows had us wishing we had some superpowers up our sleeves, but that wasn't all! The highly disturbing (yet masterful) Black Swan starring Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis has been getting Oscar buzz since it opened at the Venice Film Festival, and the indie hit The Kids Are All Right could very well get a Best Picture nod as well. So what was your favorite flick this year?
