She was back on the go for an exhibition opening with husband Francois-Henri Pinault and Valentina in Venice, then continued racking up her frequent flier miles to stop in Paris for the French Open.

Salma Hayek caught a water taxi in Venice today, wearing a strand of pearls and carrying an oversized Gucci bag. The actress is back in Europe again following her stay on the French Riviera during the Cannes Film Festival earlier this month. She teamed up with her Puss in Boots costar Antonio Banderas to debut a sneak peek of the film at the celebration of cinema before heading to Boston to shoot a few scenes for her upcoming movie Here Comes the Boom. Salma was solo as she hitched the boat ride today, but she spent yesterday afternoon with her daughter, Valentina, and Francois-Henri Pinault, taking in some of the sights at the Art Biennale in the Italian city. She and Francois, who is CEO of the company that owns Gucci, Alexander McQueen, and several other mega fashion brands, also stepped out together for a date at the adults-only Il Mondo Vi Appartiene dinner last night.

The couple got dressed up for their evening out, with Francois donning a dapper suit and Salma showing off her figure in a sexy sequin dress.

Salma Hayek covered up in a robe between takes on Here Comes the Boom in Boston yesterday. She was back on set following a few busy weeks of traveling that started with an Easter getaway to Miami and ended with her recent visit to France. Salma was joined by Francois-Henri Pinault for the Cannes opening ceremony, and she also got playful with Antonio Banderas while promoting Puss in Boots at the festival this week. She chose to wear Gucci for both of her glamorous appearances, but the actress was a little more dressed down for her latest stint in front of the cameras. Salma started filming the project in April, though she's also been focused on the launch of her new beauty line, Salma Hayek's Nuance, for CVS.

Salma Hayek and Antonio Banderas were in a playful mood today at the Cannes Film Festival during a photocall for Puss in Boots. Salma wore a dramatic, leather Gucci dress with flowers around the shoulders in the spirit of Jennifer Lopez's Met Gala gown to the event, which was held along the water at Carlton Beach. The actress, who just launched her makeup line Nuance by Salma Hayek in NYC last week, showed off her fun chemistry with Antonio as they posed on the red carpet and on a giant pair of boots. They're just a few of the international stars who have made their way to France for the prestigious cinema fest. Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz will be there for a special premiere of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, Angelina Jolie will attend for Kung Fu Panda 2, and Brad Pitt will debut the Terrence Malick-directed The Tree of Life. We'll be in the French Riviera for all the action, so stay tuned for all our coverage in the coming days!

Salma Hayek unveiled the long-awaited products from her eponymous line for CVS last week in NYC. The effort, which has been a three-year-long labor of love for the actress, will finally arrive at outlets of the retail chain this August. Salma revealed that the items are en route to stores in a February interview with T Magazine, saying that her grandmother, who passed down beauty secrets during Salma's youth in Mexico, served as inspiration for the cosmetics, skin care, and hair care collection. She presented a range of merchandise including hydrating and toning cleansers, gels, and towelettes as well as shampoos, conditioners, masks, and volumizers. Her makeup includes brighteners, "eye pods" with four eye shades, and lots more — Salma and CVS also plan to introduce additional goods as the partnership grows. Salma said:

While most of us opt for floaty dresses in the Summer, Salma Hayek doesn't mind dabbling in red-hot leather. The actress made an appearance at the Puss In Boots photo call, at the Cannes Film Festival, donning a strapless red leather Gucci dress paired with red pumps and the same floral shrug Jennifer Lopez wore to the Met gala. Definitely an eye-catching ensemble, but are you feeling it?

Salma Hayek is one of the honorary chair's of this evening's Met Gala in NYC, and she was dressed the part in a nude Alexander McQueen gown. She left her hair and makeup relatively simple, letting the McQueen confection have all the attention. Gisele Bundchen and Sarah Jessica Parker were also decked out in the fashion house's garbs, paying tribute to the man of the night. What do you think of Salma's curve-hugging frock? Weigh in on all the 2011 Met Gala red-carpet pictures with Fab and Bella's live love it or leave it polls!

When you think of sensual, Salma Hayek likely comes to mind, and undoubtedly her Alexander McQueen look will be remembered for years to come thanks to its curve-hugging design. Salma's peach-toned gown features a one-shoulder sweetheart neckline, draping into a rosette pattern at the waistline. And if that wasn't sexy enough, she completes her ensemble with a fresh-faced makeup palette and wow-factor waves. Do you think Salma's look is hot?

Salma Hayek, Francois-Henri Pinault, and their daughter, Valentina, spent their Easter weekend soaking up the sun in Miami. She and Valentina kicked things off on Friday with a trip to the Jungle Island exotic animal park. The girls got close with some giant tortoises, and Salma even hopped on the back of one gentle giant! They then headed back to the hotel, where Salma changed before joining her husband for a late-night romantic dinner. Yesterday, there was more family fun in store for the trio as they hung out by a pool. Francois-Henri and Valentina went for a dip, though Salma skipped out on the chance to show off her bikini body. It looks like Salma's making the most of her time off from working on Here Comes the Boom up north in Boston.

Salma Hayek held hands with her daughter, Valentina, who in turn clutched her half-brother Francois, yesterday following a lunch in Boston at Stephanie's cafe on Newbury Street. Her husband, Francois-Henri Pinault, was also on hand for the meal, and he left ahead of his family to wave over their car and driver. The Pinault-Hayek clan is currently based in Massachusetts while Salma shoots Here Comes the Boom with Kevin James. It's her second collaboration with Kevin after last year's Grown Ups, which they starred in with Adam Sandler. Work has taken Salma to a few locations around the globe so far this year, since she left her home base in France for a stint on the set of another project in Spain during February. She and Valentina arrived in the Northeast earlier this month to get settled before shooting began. The big-screen endeavors haven't stopped Salma from exploring other outlets, though, and her beauty line Nuance by Salma Hayek is expected to be in CVS stores soon.

alma Hayek also revealed she has become more comfortable with her sexuality since reaching her 40s and is happier in her own skin. She said: "As a woman, you should be more at ease with your sexuality when you are in your 40s. "You are more self-assured about that part. And that's the way it should be. If you are a girl who cannot walk in heels, it doesn't matter how beautiful you are. If you look like a chicken that's been spiked in the feet, it's not going to be sexy."

Salma Hayek has great hair because her grandmother put eggs on her head when she was a child. The Mexican actress credits her thick dark hair to her grandmother - who trained as a beautician and made potions for government officials and their wives to boost their hair and looks - who made her use unusual treatments and even shaved her head when she was younger to help it grow.

Salma Hayek told the new issue of Allure magazine: "She started working on my skin when I was 12 or 13. I never used soap on my face. Once, she shaved our heads and put egg on it and all these things. But I have to give her credit - my hair is great." Salma Hayek, 44, also revealed she has become more comfortable with herself and her sexuality as she has gotten older, and she wishes she could have been more confident with herself when she was younger.

If you look like a chicken that's been spiked in the feet, it's not going to be sexy."
