Fashion Week Insiders Explain What Really Happened In That Video Of Nicole Kidman Brushing Off Salma Hayek

Buy Me A Coffee

The internet, as usual, has taken a tiny moment and turned it into a full-blown soap opera. This time, the stars of the latest episode of “Things That Literally Arenโ€™t a Big Deal but Weโ€™re Losing It Anyway” are Nicole Kidman and Salma Hayek. The setting? A Balenciaga fashion show at Paris Fashion Week. The incident? Wellโ€ฆ spoiler alert: there isnโ€™t one.

But that didnโ€™t stop the TikTok sleuths from grabbing their magnifying glasses and whipping up a scandal that rivals a high school lunchroom fight over the last slice of pizza.

The Viral Clip: Cameras, Confusion, and Apparently, Carnage?
In the video that sparked this tragic tale of imaginary beef, Kidman and Hayek are standing shoulder-to-shoulder, looking glamorous and overwhelmed, with Katy Perry awkwardly sandwiched between them like the most stressed-out burrito filling of all time.

Suddenly, Salma does the unthinkableโ€”she gently touches Nicole. (Cue the dun-dun-dunnnn sound effect.) Salma, clearly trying to get Nicole to shift for photos, places her hands on the Australian star. Nicole, in what TikTokers decided MUST be a rejection of friendship, world peace, and all that is good, lightly swats Salmaโ€™s hands away and looks like sheโ€™s ready to teleport out of there.

But Wait! Here Comes the Lip Reader…
If this whole thing werenโ€™t absurd enough, enter a lipreader who allegedly translated their conversation with the intensity usually reserved for decoding ancient hieroglyphics. No, Nicole didnโ€™t say, โ€œIโ€™ve had it with you, Salma.โ€ And no, Salma didnโ€™t respond with, โ€œDonโ€™t make me tell Penรฉlope about this.โ€

What was really said? Insiders now insist it was probably along the lines of:
Salma: โ€œTurn for the other photographers, Nic.โ€
Nicole: โ€œI’m out of patience, not even my Botox can hold this together anymore.โ€

Insiders Set the Record Straight: โ€œLiterally, Nothing Happened.โ€
Multiple very bored insiders have now stepped forward to try to make everyone calm down. One source told People, โ€œNothing happened. They were being swarmed by cameras, trying to have a normal conversation. People are watching 3-second clips and acting like itโ€™s the final season of Game of Thrones.โ€

Another insider told Us Weekly, โ€œThis situation is beyond silly. Nicole and Salma are friends. Respect each other. Love each other. You know, like normal humans who donโ€™t dissolve into a catfight every time they touch elbows.โ€

Butโ€ฆ Just for Fun: The Salma and Balenciaga Backstory
As a fun fact that TikTok may have overlooked: Salma is married to Franรงois-Henri Pinault, the CEO of Kering, the company that owns Balenciaga. Yes, sheโ€™s married to the top dog of the fashion world. And their wedding? Oh, just a casual billion-dollar bash. Probably had diamond-encrusted napkins and a live unicorn show. So yeah, if there was beef, Salma could have shut down the whole event with a single text. But alas, there wasnโ€™t.

Final Thoughts: Relax, Internet.
The only thing more dramatic than the runway looks at Paris Fashion Week is… well, us. Thereโ€™s no feud, no fight, no falloutโ€”just two actresses being momentarily overwhelmed by a tornado of cameras.

Now, if youโ€™ll excuse us, the internet needs to go find the next mundane celebrity moment to blow wildly out of proportion. Stay tuned.
