According to Page Six, a TikTok video posted on 22/7 went viral showing Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek, wife of billionaire François-Henri Pinault, on a commercial flight from Mexico City to Veracruz state last weekend. The video shows the two actresses dressed casually, chatting comfortably with each other. While waiting in line to board the plane, they declined a fan's request for a photo. However, they greeted other fans and posed for pictures in the dining area.
Hola reported that Xochil Molina, the Veracruz State Director of Culture, greeted them upon arrival at Heriberto Jara Corona International Airport. They then traveled to a luxury hotel in Boca del Rio. The state governor, Rocio Nahle, confirmed a brief meeting with the two stars, expressing her pleasure at meeting fellow Mexican-American actress Salma Hayek.
Many people wondered why Jolie and Hayek were on a commercial flight. They assumed A-list celebrities and billionaires, like Hayek, typically use private jets. Some speculated the actresses might be involved in a promotional activity. Their schedules have not been publicly released.

According to Page Six, the two actresses became closer after working together on Eternals (2021). Three years later, Hayek starred in Without Blood, which Jolie wrote, directed, and co-produced. In a 2024 People interview, Hayek described their friendship: "We often do things together as a family. We also take our children out together, but sometimes we also spend time alone." Hayek has an 18-year-old daughter, while Jolie is a single mother of six children she shares with ex-husband Brad Pitt.
In a 2021 interview with Ventaneando, Jolie expressed her affection for Hayek: "We've been in this industry for a long time but never met, probably because I'm not very outgoing. But now, we're very close. She's like my sister. Salma is intelligent, kind, and wonderful."
Born in 1975 into an artistic family in the US, Jolie first appeared on screen alongside her father, Jon Voight, in Lookin' to Get Out (1982) and began her acting career in 1993 with Cyborg. She has won three Golden Globe Awards and an Oscar.
Born in 1966, Hayek was a model before pursuing an acting career in Hollywood. With her Latin beauty, she is considered a sex symbol and has frequently been listed among the world's most attractive women. In 2007, she topped The Hollywood Reporter's list of hottest stars. Hayek has been nominated for an Oscar, a Golden Globe, and an Emmy. In 2009, she married billionaire François-Henri Pinault.
