A clip featuring an alleged "tense moment" between Nicole Kidman and Salma Hayek at the Balenciaga show during Paris Fashion Week on September 30th resurfaced on Monday (October 14) and has since gone viral.
According to People, the actresses' actions in the video, in which Kidman seemingly pushes Hayek out of the way as she tries to direct the Practical Magic star towards the camera, were blown way out of proportion. After the video went viral, a source close to both stars told the outlet that the media made "a story out of nothing."
"They were being bombarded by cameras at the end of the show while in the middle of a conversation. People are looking at clips and making a story out of nothing."
Footage from the fashion show depicts the Fools Rush In alum with her arm on Kidman's shoulder (trying to turn her around), when all of a sudden, Kidman moves her hand away and proceeds to share a few words and gestures with Hayek.
Forensic lip reader Jeremy Freeman believes that Hayek told Kidman, "Let’s turn there, OK, here," to which Kidman supposedly replied: "Hey, I’m fine, I’m good. There, it’s enough, it’s OK," as she subtly pushed her arm out of the way, per Page Six.
The source continued, referring to the whole situation as "silly."
"This whole situation is silly. Salma and Nicole love and respect each other."
