“I had to endure the worst time of all in terms of racial discrimination in Hollywood when I first started out,” Hayek said in the interview. “It was inconceivable to American directors and producers that a Mexican woman could have a lead role.”

Especially one who at the time had limited fluency in English.

She came to the US to go to high school in NOLA; her family was well-off.

Spoiled brat!!!

discrimination against undocumented workers

I don't like discrimination at all but, what is she whining about? Nobody is forcing these people to come here or to stay here. They are breaking the law and it would appear that now it's the norm for many of them to slip across our borders, steal ss cards, trash the border they come across. Bringing with them diseases that we don't have here but do now, drugs and who knows what else.

This from a woman whose only talent is her chest.

In that case, I would tax Selma Hayek.

And I suspect she would tax me!
