Salma Hayek wishes Penelope Cruz a happy 50th birthday

Salma Hayek wished Penelope Cruz on her 50th birthday in an “inspirational” social media post.

The Brazilian diva paid tribute to Cruz by sharing a throwback picture with the actress and her sister Monica Cruz on Instagram.

“Happy Birthday Penelope!” He wrote in the caption along with the picture. “Thank God for sending an angel to Earth a special number of years ago,” the 57-year-old Oscar nominee said of his friend.

“All of us whose paths crossed with her know that she has made our lives crazy, exciting, meaningful, inspiring, and taught us the meaning of togetherness and loyalty with great love. Penelope, thank you for the little angels you have brought into this world. You are an extraordinary woman, and even more so every year @penelopecruzoficial!”

Salma and Penelope have co-starred in only one film, the 2006 1880s-set Mexican western Caper Bandidas, and also in an episode of MTV’s punked

From its $35 million budget, Joachim Rönning and Espen Sandberg’s poorly received action comedy, which also starred Sam Shepard, Steve Zahn and Dwight Yoakam, made only $18.3 million at the box office.
