Their stylish appearance comes after Salma reflected on her past in a new interview with Bustle - and admitted that she previously had a "naughty and illegal" habit. The Q&A series saw the publication ask successful women to describe what their lives were like at 28 - what they wore, where they worked, what stressed them out, and what, if anything, they would do differently.

"I got all this attention, but nobody was offering me jobs. So by the time I was getting closer to 30, I was depressed. I had broken up with my boyfriend. Everybody knew who I was, but I was not getting respect from the industry."

"I used to go to the multiplex at noon and get a half-price matinee movie ticket. I had a chart of all the movies playing that weekend. They line them up so you can't see many of them back to back, but I would hide in the bathroom, read my scripts, put on a hat or change my top, and go to another one.

"Sometimes, I would watch the beginning of one movie and then go to another movie that had just started. The next Friday, I'd go back to the original movie I hadn't seen all the way through - I'd work out the math so I'd finish what I started.
