\"salmasm.jpg\"Salma Hayek is one of the most beautiful women in the world. The Mexican-born actress has showed off her famous curves in movies like “Bandidas” and “From Dusk Til Dawn”. But is her fantastic figure the result of genes? Or of hours spent working out in the gym? Turns out it is neither one. In a recent interview, Hayek said God himself was personally responsible for her body<\/a>. She reflected on her insecurity as a teenager, and said, “My mom and I stopped at a church during a road trip we were making from our home in Mexico. “When we went inside, I prayed for the miracle I wanted to happen. I put my hands in holy water and said: ‘Please God, give me some breasts’. And he gave me them! Within a few months, I developed a growing spurt, as teenagers do, and I was very pleased with the way I grew outwards.”
\nFunny. All this time I’ve been asking God to make me look like Salma Hayek, but it hasn’t happened yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
