Salma Hayek Opens Up About Her Friendship With Angelina Jolie
When asked by PEOPLE about their friendship, the mother of one joked, "What do you mean friendship?" adding that the duo “do things together as a family."
"Hang[ing] out sometimes with the kids, but also by ourselves. I always find it super inspiring. A friend was telling me, ‘It's the same life whether you laugh or cry.’ And it's nice to have a friend where you can laugh and cry... and feel always safe," Hayek added.
The 58-year-old shed more light about Jolie as a director, telling PEOPLE/Entertainment Weekly suite in Toronto, "I was surprised, even though we are very close and stuff, but I was [surprised by] how warm and generous and kind she was as a director to the actors. I felt like she was my motherly figure because she would come to the set and run it like a family. She was a very efficient mother, but she was also there emotionally every step of the way.”
Salma added, "I've worked with great directors that are really focused, but maybe because she's also an actress. Everything that maybe she wished somebody would've done for her, she did for us."
