SALMA HAYEK DEFENDS HILARIA BALDWIN: Salma Hayek is here for her pal Hilaria Baldwin, as many have called her heritage into question. She told Radio Andy: “All of my friends asked me, ‘Did you hear about this? Oh, my God, she lied!’ We all lie a little bit.” She added that the 37-year-old made her “friend happy,” referring to her husband Alec Baldwin. “She’s a good mother — and she has five kids,” Hayek continued. “You know, I don’t care. I’m sorry. I don’t mean to betray or hurt anybody’s feelings, and I don’t know if it’s right or if it’s wrong. I’m not going to judge somebody just because of that one thing.”
