What’s that? This isn’t news, you say? Well, it kinda is, since it wasn’t Salma’s baby. The actress, in war-torn Sierra Leone with a camera crew to showcase the fight against tetanus, nursed the little baby when his mother ran out of milk:
Hayek said: ‘The baby was perfectly healthy, but the mother did not have any milk. He was very hungry - I was weaning my daughter Valentina, but I still had a lot of milk, so I breast-fed the baby.’
In a world where we are constantly reading and reporting on the selfishness and self-centered actions of celebrities, including those who visit war-torn countries, it is like cool rain on a hot day to read about something like this. And it’s awesome not only because she performed a charitable act of mercy, but because this footage is being shown on national television. I haven’t given one of these out for a while, but she gets a Breath Of Fresh Air Award.
