Actress Salma Hayek, 56, took to Instagram on Sunday to celebrate her Latino heritage - and shared an unseen photo from the 2023 Met Gala after party in the process.
The Magic Mike's Last Dance star shared a gallery of photos highlighting the "brilliant new generation of Latina actress," one of which was a snap beside Netflix's Wednesday's leady lady, Jenna Ortega.

Salma's photo gave a rare glimpse inside the illustrious Met Gala, which is typically a no-go zone for press and paparazzi. The star was standing inside the NYC gallery, surrounded by the portraits and sculptures that are hidden away from public view for the night during fashion's most coveted affair.
