According to E! Online, Salma Hayek, 44, who was born in Mexico, admitted "I was an illegal immigrant in the United States. It was for a small period of time, but I still did it."
Hayek moved to Los Angeles in 1991 and her visa expired shortly after. A spokesperson said that Hayek's status "was cleaned up immediately as Salma went to Mexico and renewed" her visa.
Hayek also admitted "I had to endure the worst time of all in terms of racial discrimination in Hollywood when I first started out," she said. "It was inconceivable to American directors and producers that a Mexican woman could have a lead role."
