So, here we are, staring down the cosmic barrel of September’s celestial shenanigans—Venus is cozying up to Mars, igniting passions and spotlighting beauty in all its glorious forms. And who better to embody that celestial spark than none other than Salma Hayek, sashaying through her first-ever Sports Illustrated Swim feature at the seasoned age of 59? I mean, seriously, the woman hopped a plane to Mexico and unleashed a veritable tsunami of swimwear vibes—over 200 suits tossed her way, yet it was the fiery red bikini that caught the astrophysical eye, turning heads and setting screens ablaze. Salma’s no stranger to defying expectations (hello, Golden Globes bombshell moment!), but the mix of cosmic timing and sheer audacity here? It’s like the universe itself whispered, “Go forth and dazzle.” So, if you’ve ever wondered whether confidence grows with age—or if swimsuit season can stretch well into the late fifties—Salma’s radiant romp might just be your sparkling answer.
Salma Hayek‘s fans are still nowhere near done gushing over her Sports Illustrated Swim feature. In May, the 59-year-old jetted out to her native Mexico for her first feature with the magazine, where she flaunted her curves in endless swimsuits while posing for photographer Ruven Afanador. Displaying her ample cleavage and hourglass waist in one photo, Salma dropped jaws in a fiery red bikini, making eyes pop while outdoors as she threw on an open kaftan. Salma has admitted that SI Swim sent her “200” bathing suits to try on for her shoots, and it looks like this one made the cut.

Scroll for the photo. Flashing her chest and taut abs, Salma threw out her arms on either side of her, sending out Carnival energy while flaunting her fantastic figure.
The House of Gucci star, who was praised for stripping down at 55+, wowed in her tight top, going low-cut and with a circular hoop cut-out adding pops of gold.

Rocking a deep tan, matching bottoms, and a billowing open kaftan in the same shade of red, Salma nailed her shoot, pouting her lips into a smile while sporting her dark, curled locks down. Salma kept glam with a sweeping of bronzer over a full face of makeup, sending out sunkissed vibes as she attracted comments. The photo was reposted on an Instagram fan account in May, where one fan didn’t hesitate to call the actress a “10.”
Salma’s cover, meanwhile, made headlines for showing her kneeling from a shallow pool with checkered flooring as she sizzled in a slightly sparkly bikini. The MCU star even ditched her top entirely for a brazen topless photo!

Lifting her hands to her head as she parted her legs slightly from the water, Salma dropped jaws in her knotted swimsuit, rocking another devilish neckline that just about contained her curves.
“It’s so bizarre,” she told the magazine about landing her SI Swim gig. “I’m nearly 60! At this stage, it wouldn’t have crossed my mind. The first thing you get is—what is that word?—imposter syndrome. You have the imposter syndrome immediately,” Salma added. “I used to look at this magazine, and all the models that were in it, they were so perfect and so beautiful,” she continued.
