According to Daily Mail on October 14, in a short video that is spreading rapidly on social networks , Nicole Kidman seems to say something tense to Salma Hayek before refusing to take a photo with the Mexican star and then shaking her hand and walking away. It is known that this clip was filmed two weeks ago but started spreading rapidly on Sunday night and has been causing discussion until now.
The moment only lasted a few seconds but sparked heated debates and a series of rumors related to the relationship between the two veteran stars . In particular, the “Australian swan” received many critical comments for her rude and cold attitude towards her colleagues. Many netizens flooded the Instagram page of the Big Little Lies beauty to criticize , mock and question her actions.
However, an insider said both actresses were stressed by the surrounding reporters and paparazzi, making them tired and wanting to leave. They had previously chatted and posed for photos with Katy Perry at the Balenciaga show during Paris Fashion Week . “They had no problem with each other. This is a video that does not reflect reality. There is a photo of them together, nothing happened. They were talking about something related to advice and having a meeting – while being attacked, shouted at and surrounded from all angles by cameras. They just wanted to leave,” the source told the Daily Mail .
The source insisted that Nicole Kidman and Salma Hayek are still friends despite what people are saying. “Nicole is not rude. She can be shy sometimes but she is not rude,” the source added.

Hours after the event, Salma Hayek uploaded a series of photos from the night, including Nicole Kidman, and made a glowing reference to the show. The Eternals actress still tagged her co-star in the post, seemingly indicating that there were no issues between them.
The event being mentioned in this noisy event also marked the first time Nicole Kidman appeared in public since the actress’s mother passed away. Besides the criticism, many fans spoke up to defend the Australian star, saying that some netizens are pushing the matter too far while relying only on speculation and videos that do not clearly show the real situation.
