Salma Hayek accidentally flashes everyone as she celebrates 24 million Instagram followers

The Hollywood star shared a clip of herself dancing around and said she 'couldn't contain' her excitement

Salma Hayek seemed to accidentally flash the world while celebrating an Instagram milestone online.

The star had just managed to reach the 24 million follower mark on the social media platform, and decided - as she is within her rights to do - to dance about wearing nothing but a dressing gown.

You can see the clip here:

Posting the clip of herself dancing away, Hayek wrote: “24 million followers, 24 million reasons to smile. Thank you all for joining me on this wild ride! I cannot contain my excitement & gratitude.” It certainly seems that way.

In fact, Hayek was so excited that her team clearly had to step in and get crafty with a bit of blurring around her body - seemingly because she was showing off a bit more than she intended to.

The post has since racked up more than 830,000 likes and almost 6,500 comments - plenty of which are asking her to share the uncensored version. Tut tut.

Earlier this year, Hayek said that she struggled to land comedy roles in her younger years due to being ‘too sexy’ - seems like quite a nice problem to have.

In an interview with GQ UK in February, Hayek said she was ‘typecast’ for the longest time and struggled to show her versatility as a performer.

But she says fellow star Adam Sandler gave her a shot and the rest is history.

She told the outlet: “My entire life I wanted to do comedy and people wouldn’t give me comedies.

"I couldn’t land a role until I met Adam Sandler, who put me in a comedy [2010’s Grown Ups], but I was in my forties! They said, 'You’re sexy, so you’re not allowed to have a sense of humour'.

The actor said she couldn’t ‘contain her excitement’.

“Not only are you not allowed to be smart, but you were not allowed to be funny in the '90s.”

Hayek said that despite having an impressive acting range - and even scooping herself an Oscar for Best Actress in 2003 for her role in Frida - she still struggled to land diverse roles.

However, she’s currently enjoying the last laugh.

“I was sad at the time,” she said. “But now here I am doing every genre, in a time in my life where they told me I would have expired - that the last 20 years I would have been out of business.

"So I’m not sad, I’m not angry; I’m laughing.” Laughing and dancing and accidentally flashing people, in fact.
