There's definitely more than one majorly talented person in Salma Hayek's family.

While the actress has long been known for her stellar acting, she recently blew fans away as she put the spotlight on her mom, Diana Jiménez Medina, and her jaw-dropping singing skills.

The House of Gucci actress is originally from Coatzacoalcos, Mexico, a large port city in the state of Veracruz. Her parents are Sami Hayek Dominguez and Diana, plus she has one younger brother, also named Sami, who is an architect with his own firm for furniture and space design.

Over the weekend, the Hayek family got together to celebrate its matriarch Diana's milestone 80th birthday, plus Salma's aunt Charo's 77th birthday as well.

And as Salma shared a glimpse inside the celebrations, not only did she impress fans with her own surprising singing skills, but even more so by that of her mother's, who left the room silent as she expertly showed off her opera skills.

The video goes on to share more clips of different members of the Hayek family also doing their own bit of singing, with the help of a mariachi band.
