Video: Salma Hayek Wetnursing African Boy

In a beautiful act of generosity, Salma Hayek breastfed a hungry infant while traveling in Sierra Leone with UNICEF. Salma was visiting a hospital when she met a woman unable to breastfeed her child. Salma quickly became a “milk mama” for the starving child, ignoring the cameras. The boy shared the same birthday as her own child and Salma did not seem to think twice about breastfeeding another child until she reflected on her actions after the fact. According to Salma, her own great grandmother also breastfed a starving child she met on the street in Mexico years ago. What an incredible legacy to pass down.
