Acclaimed actress and director Salma Hayek, who recently won an Emmy, chose to attend the renowned Glastonbury music festival instead of the opulent wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. While her billionaire husband, Francois-Henri Pinault, participated in the festivities in Venice, Italy, Hayek focused on spending quality time with their 17-year-old daughter, Valentina Pinault, at the iconic UK event.
Glastonbury, celebrated as one of the premier annual music festivals, showcased an impressive lineup this year that featured a diverse roster of artists, from legendary musician Neil Young to contemporary star Charli XCX. The festival also served as a gathering place for numerous celebrities, with Hayek being joined by supermodel Cara Delevingne, actress Anya Taylor-Joy, and designer Stella McCartney among others.
The festival was not without its moments of controversy, including a performance by rap duo Bob Vylan, who made headlines for their anti-Israel chants, resulting in their U.S. visas being revoked.
This year’s Glastonbury has proven to be a memorable occasion for Hayek and her companions, and it highlights the festival’s ongoing ability to attract high-profile figures and create a vibrant atmosphere for music lovers and celebrities alike.
Glastonbury continues to be a platform for both artistic expression and social commentary, blending entertainment with important conversations in today’s world.
