How Donald Trump Weaseled His Way Into Getting Salma Hayek’s Number – HuffPost

In 2016, Salma Hayek revealed that, many years ago, PresidentDonald Trumpasked her out.

According to Hayek, she rejected Trumps advances and, as a result, he told the National Enquirer that he had rejected herbecause she was too short.

After this story broke in October, many wondered how Trump got his tiny little hands on Hayeks number in the first place. Well, now, shes telling the awkward tale behind their initial meetup.

During a recent appearance on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Noah asked Hayek about this particular incident and the 50-year-old actress spilled so much tea.

It all started when Hayek was cold at an event and Trump, who just happened to be sitting behind her and her then boyfriend, immediately put his coat around her shoulders.

I turn around and my boyfriend so charming, so nice he said hello [to Trump], she recalled. [Trump] said, Im sorry, your girlfriend, I saw she was cold. And then he kept talking to my boyfriend.

Trump sparked up a little friendship with Hayeks boyfriend that night and eventually told the couple they should stay in his hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey, if they were ever in town. He asked for their phone numbers and, according to Hayek, Trump never spoke to her boyfriend again.

But he did give her a ring.

Hes inviting me out, and Im like, What about my boyfriend? Am I crazy? Are you asking me out? You know I have a boyfriend, she explained, adding that Trump responded with, Hes not good enough for you. Hes not important, hes not big enough for you. You have to go out with me.

Noah then joked that Trump was right. Hayek did not end up with that boyfriend and instead married French billionaire Franois-Henri Pinault in 2009.
