Salma Hayek has to pinch herself sometimes
because she is shocked that people consider herself
beautiful in America. She claims that growing up in
Mexico she was considered "deformed".
Hayek reveals, "I have had my struggles. I am
five foot, two inches and in Mexico it was important
to be tall. I grew up in a world where beauty was not
only tall, it was white and blonde with blue eyes. And
I'm dark, have brown eyes and brown hair and I'm
short.
People used to say that the short thing was a
deformity. I was really upset about my height."
