You have got to see her in Frida as the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. She's so amazing in it. Blew me away.

I love that she really puts her heart into work that she believes in. With Frida much like with UG it was a project she wanted to do for ages (it took her eight years to get Frida moving!) but no one was interested so she took it to Harvey Weinstein personally, campaigned, got Miramax to back it, co-produced the film and starred in it herself. Everyone loved it and she ended up with an Oscar nomination.

Also worth checking her out in Dogma, Desperado and Once Upon a Time In Mexico (she also sings an amazing Spanish track on the soundtrack-she can really sing-it's called Siente Mi Amor.

I love her as Sofia..pure Salma lol. And don't get me started on her in the telenovela
