Salma Hayek was once told by a director to ‘sound dumber and speak faster.’The Like a Boss actress recalled the incident while talking about the lessons she once learned from an old acting teacher in an interview with Total Film magazine
Though she said the teacher inspired her to be passionate about every ‘single detail’ when she was still learning her craft back in Mexico, Salma, 53, admitted that lots of directors ‘don’t let her’ exercise those talents.
Still she was grateful for the mentor, who she said ‘taught me so many wonderful things aside from acting.”You could never miss a class,’ she recalled.
‘One time, one of the people in the class didn’t come and showed up after three days with a paper from the doctor.’He came over to him and said, “Is that your death certificate?”
