Open Post: Hosted By Salma Hayek’s New TV Show About A Woman Whose Boobs Talk To Her
Salma Hayek is many things: actress, businesswoman, humanitarian, defender Hilaria Baldwin, director, producer, billionaire’s wife, and the proud owner of two very luscious breasts. Now Salma’s putting her money where her tits are. Her production company, Venanarosa Productions, is developing an HBO Max series called A Boob’s Life. It’ll be about a woman whose boobs start talking to her once she hits 40. Oh god, please tell me that’s not a symptom of premature menopause.
The show is based on a yet-to-be-released novel by Leslie Lehr, entitled A Boob’s Life: How America’s Obsession Shaped Me – And You. Look for it on bookshelves (or book… sites?) on March 2. Salma, the author, and a bunch of other people will executive produce. Salma explained in a statement to Entertainment Tonight that the talking titties are a metaphor:
“We are so appreciative that HBO Max was insightful and bold enough to develop this show with us,” Hayek said in a statement to ET. “In A Boob’s Life, we use breasts as a metaphor for the constant judgement women are submitted to, creating a collective sensation that no matter what we do we are never enough. In this show, we give the breast a voice that takes us through the life of a woman from a unique perspective that often we don’t dare to see.”
Wait… the breast? Or both breasts? If you’re just gonna give the left one (the left one’s usually bigger, oui?) a voice, then that’s right jug discrimination. Do better, Salma!
Earlier this week, Salma told ET she finds sharing photos of her own body (including her boobs) on Instagram “liberating”:
“I had to lose a lot of weight and exercise to get into the bikini towards the end of last year,” she said, noting that she took a lot of pics of herself after she got down to the size she wanted. “I’m glad I took a lot of pictures, I have no shame on it, because it was the first week of the vacation.”‘
Hayek quipped of her pics, “People are sick of it but I’m going to let them take a break. They’re going to think I’m wearing a bikini every day. No, they’re all from the same location.”
Here are Salma’s boobs swimming:

And meditating:
If they could talk, I’m sure they’d say something, “Gee, thanks for showing me the world, Salma, but please remember to cover us up while traveling during the pandemic.” Hmmm… masks for your boobs. Not a bad idea, actually. We’ll call it Breast Respiratory Armor. BRA for short!
