Eamonn Holmes was left red-faced today after wrongly announcing Hollywood actress Salma Hayek was a lesbian on live television.
The 48-year-old presenter made the embarrassing gaffe while interviewing the Ugly Betty star on This Morning, which he hosts once a week with his partner Ruth Langsford.
The Belfast native was obviously struggling to understand Hayek’s Mexican accent and thought she had ‘come out’ when he misheard her describing her Lebanese background.
The Oscar-nominated actress, 42, was appearing on the ITV morning show to publicize her campaign to eradicate tetanus.
 After introducing the film star, Holmes commented on her surname - which she inherited from her father Sami Hayek, who is Lebanese.
He said: ‘Hayek doesn’t sound very Mexican.’
As Hayek tried to explain that she was half Lebanese, Holmes put his foot in it when he asked: ‘You’re a lesbian?’
Fortunately, she saw the funny side and smiled politely before learning forward and saying ‘Lebanese’ slowly enough for Holmes to understand.
A sheepish Holmes replied: ‘Oh sorry, i thought you were half lesbian. Forgive me.’
Hayek has teamed up with UNICEF and Pampers for the international campaign to eradicate tetanus in mothers and babies over the next five years.
Hayek has been travelling in Europe since last month with her one-year-old baby girl Valentina.
Earlier this week, Hayek was spotted spending time with her ex-fiance and Valentina’s father, Francois-Henri Pinault, who is based in Paris.

Salma Hayek and French billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault have called off their engagement.
“We are sad to announce the engagement of Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault has been canceled. There will be no further comment.”
The couple met in Venice in May 2006. Their daughter, Valentina Paloma, was born in Los Angeles last September.
Pinault is the CEO of PPR, the luxury-brands empire that owns Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Balenciaga.

People magazine has issued a “sneak peek” into their 100 Most Beautiful People issue and I have to ask… are they saving the best for last? Rumer Willis?
KATE HUDSON
She’s on the cover of this year’s Most Beautiful issue, but Hudson doesn’t owe her famous sun-kissed looks to thousands of hours logged at a spa. “I don’t even remember the last time I got a manicure,” says the 29-year-old mom to son Ryder, 4. “I even got to the point where I started waxing my own legs because I don’t have the time. I’d rather be home with Ryder sitting there waxing my legs. I haven’t gotten a facial in a million years. I don’t do those kinds of things. And when I do, I always think, ‘I should do this more often.’”
SALMA HAYEK
The new mom is beautiful inside and out, having signed on as ambassador for a Pampers/UNICEF program that provides tetanus shots to babies and mothers in developing countries. (Every pack of diapers with a UNICEF logo sold pays for one shot.) “You give them the vaccine, they don’t die,” says Hayek, 41. “It’s not just about creating a better world for my daughter, Valentina, but also being more passionate about diminishing the suffering of women and children all over the world.”
MARY J. BLIGE
“I’m at my most beautiful when I’m in a good mood, not dealing with any drama, and feeling healthy,” says the singer, 37. But when she wants to get glam in a pinch, Blige has a quick beauty tip. “I put on eyeliner and mascara and some liner on my mouth and some gloss in the middle, and that’s the perfect five-minute face.”
RUMER WILLIS
“I grew up with a mom that most moms don’t look like,” says the 19-year-old star of the summer comedy The House Bunny. But with a little help from mom Demi Moore, and a some experimentation, she’s finding her own way: “There’s a cool Korean spa my mom found in L.A. I go with my best friend, [Gossip Girl's] Jessica Szohr. That and getting my nails done are my biggest indulgences.”
SARAH SILVERMAN
“It sounds corny, but when I’m with my comedian friends, I just feel good. I’m lucky because I feel way more beautiful than I really am,” says the comic, 37. And although she, ahem, “paired up” with Matt Damon, Silverman’s still going strong with boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel. “Thank God for Jimmy, because all the things I don’t like about myself are the things that he likes the most. Like my inner-thigh fat. He grabs it and he’s like, ‘I love this!’ ”
CHRISTINA APPLEGATE
The 36-year-old actress admits to a new beauty addiction that she picked up on the set of her hit comedy, Samantha Who?. “They airbrush my makeup on,” she says. “Now I don’t want to do anything without that – it’s quick and it’s good. I want to get out of the makeup chair as soon as possible. I’m so low-maintenance.”
EVA LONGORIA & TONY PARKER
They’re one of PEOPLE’s Most Beautiful couples, but the Desperate Housewife – known for her knockout red-carpet appearances – looks the best when she’s low-key, according to her husband. Putting a cute spin on it, the NBA star says, “I like her best in jeans, a T-shirt and Hugs.” Says Longoria Parker, “He means Uggs.”
ISLA FISHER
Her fiery locks aren’t just a signature style – for Fisher, 32, they also provide a convenient excuse! “It was great having red hair as a kid because I had something to blame my temper on,” the Aussie actress says. “Now I go for the same color palette as Conan O’Brien. I did dye it blonde once, but it backfired, as I had nothing to blame my temper on!”
AMANDA BEARD
“To look good in the water, you have to pick the right swimsuit,” advises the gold-medal Olympic swimmer, 26. “I own close to 500.” And that’s not her only tip for a pretty poolside look: “I wear makeup in the water. I always wear a waterproof mascara, Maybelline Volume Express. All my makeup is waterproof, even my concealer.”
THE GOSSIP GIRL CAST
Onscreen, they are gorgeous, scheming, backstabbing high schoolers. Off-screen, Blake Lively, Chace Crawford, Ed Westwick, Jessica Szohr, Penn Badgley, Leighton Meester and Taylor Momsen (clockwise from bottom) are still gorgeous but somewhat kinder to one another. “I assure you,” says Badgley, “we are all fun and charming as hell.”
JULIANNE MOORE
The natural redhead says that when she was younger, she hated her flame-red hair. “Nobody likes being different as a kid. In first grade kids called me Freckleface Strawberry – it was a drink mix. It is also the title of my children’s book,” says Moore, 47. Recently she dyed her hair blonde for the upcoming film Blindness. “It was fun for two days, then I started to hate it. I spent all my life wishing for different color hair, but now I felt too weird to enjoy it. The minute the movie wrapped, I changed it back.”
JASON TAYLOR
If he hasn’t already taken enough ribbing from his Miami Dolphins teammates about his elegant moves on Dancing with the Stars, more is on the way. “This article will be plastered in the locker room,” predicts the 6′6″ Taylor. But the defensive end, 33, is taking the jokes in stride: “In the guy world, it’s a sign of respect. I’d be more worried if they didn’t tease me.”
VANESSA HUDGENS
“I grew up in the business, so I was used to putting on makeup every day,” says the 19-year-old star of the High School Musical movies, who went without makeup for her PEOPLE photo shoot. “Just recently I’ve learned to be okay with myself without wearing makeup. I think it was a special someone telling me that I didn’t need it. I started taking care of my skin and realized I didn’t need as much as I thought I did.”
TAYLOR SWIFT
“I have blonde eyelashes and blonde eyebrows, so my typical insecurity is that my eyes go away when I don’t have makeup on,” says the Grammy-nominated country singer, 19, who also went makeup-free for her PEOPLE shoot. “But it’s important to be comfortable with who you are and go natural once in a while.”
ZOË SALDAÑA
“I feel self-conscious when I have makeup on. It just doesn’t feel like it’s part of me,” says the actress, 29, who didn’t wear any for her PEOPLE shoot. “I feel my most confident when I am at my most natural. However, I do have my days when I really want to do something dramatic, whether it be really dark, dark eyes or dark lipstick. I love red lipstick.”
JESSICA ALBA & CASH WARREN
“[Pregnancy is] the most beautiful thing that can happen to you,” Alba says, admitting that she has a bit of a “glow.” “Everything in my face is puffed up. I have the face of a teenager! I feel like I’m 16 again.” Even Warren says he’s gotten in on the action, admitting, “I don’t know if it’s as much of a pregnancy glow as kind of a barbecue-grease glow. I’ve gained probably about 10 pounds.”
CARRIE UNDERWOOD
The Grammy-winning beauty, 25, admits that she still gets nervous on the red carpet. “I feel more beautiful when I see the pictures after. I’m like, ‘I wish I had felt like I looked like that when I was actually there.’”

I loves me some Salma Hayek. She is one fierce cat. Hayek and soon to be husband Francois-Henri Pinault have been enjoying New York this week. She was also at the Madonna and Gucci Malawi Benefit on Wednesday where she scored private soccer lessons with David Beckham. After shelling out over $350k to outbid Anna Wintour, I feel we should not mention that Snoop scored his for free. Especially after she took out a photog.
Some paparazzi got to close for comfort as the actress was arriving at her Midtown hotel. Seconds after stepping out of the car Salma threw up her hand shielding herself from the intrusion. Pushing the envelope, a photog stepped over the line and Hayek had no problem in pushing back.
She is one of those women who are super nice, but you know she would cut a bitch.

Who doesn’t love gorgeous women? Every magazine and Web site rounds up their list of Most Sexy This and Hottest That. Who’s got time to read all of them?
Yet we here at Gone Hollywood don’t want you to miss out on any hot celebrity chicks, so we have rounded up all the ladies that make up the elite of celebrity hotness.
Hottest Chick on TV- Kristen Bell
I love Veronica Mars. So Kristen Bell on Heroes is like candy. She looks like the type of girl who would tie you up and make you squeal…in a good way.

Hottest Lesbian Chick - Portia de Rossi
At first I thought Portia was guilty of the utmost crime of snobbery. You remember her days on Ally McBeal. She would strut around with long hair like she was Lady Lovely Locks and look pretentious. But now that she is openly dating Ellen Degeneres I can’t tell you how hypocritical I have become. I mean “Arrested Development” was pure gold.

Hottest Actress That is Actually Talented- Keira Knightley
How could you not love Keira. She swears like a sailor on shore leave and doesn’t have any shame. Keira is someone you could drink with and she would be racking up pints faster than you can say pirate hooker.
“Apparently on the Internet I’m a sexy beanpole, tomboy beanpole.”

Hottest Goth Chick- Rose McGowan
Rose McGowan is one saucy kitten. She is one of those girls who will bust out freaky toys that make you nervous, but always wanted to try. Plus I have three words for you. Machine gun leg.

Hottest Young Hot Hollywood Chick- Hayden Panettiere
The second of the hot blondes on “Heroes” is Hayden. She is constantly bouncing around in a cheerleader skirt and is never without lip-gloss. Her character never dies and undergoes various grotesque accidents. Beauty and gore. It is like soft core porn and candy for a man.

Hottest Underrated Babe- Salma Hayek
Salma has just been inducted into the MILF association and has projects around every corner. After fighting her way from Mexican soap opera status, she now ranks among the A-listers. Plus she has fantastic boobies.

Overrated Babe- Cameron Diaz
She is thin, blonde and rich. We get it. But I fail to see the appeal in Cameron Diaz. In true form she is rather ditzy and lacks talent. This is one chic who make it on appearance alone.

Hottest Mistress-Annabella Sciorra
Tony Soprano raked in a ton of tail. But her character, Gloria, was smart and sassy. Two very important factors when dealing with the mob.

Hottest of the Richest- Sandra Bullock
She ranks 14th on the Forbes’ list of the rich and powerful women. Sandra Bullock has that girl next door quality and buckets of cash you could roll in. She is also the type of girl you can bring home to mom, hold a decent conversation with and will ride your Harley without complaining about wind blown hair.

Most Desired- Queen Latifah
Before you gasp with fear of the voluptuous curves of the Queen, know that in a Yahoo Personals poll she came in third of the most desired single celebrities. Sure Jessica Alba was number one and Jennifer Anniston placed second. But Latifah placed third above Jessica Simpson and Maria Sharapova.

UPDATE (Freddy): In the interest of completeness, here are some of the more notable omissions from Cara’s list. Sure, it takes the list beyond 10 and technically screws up the title. But it’s hot women, people, so get over it already. (And Queen Freakin’ Latifah? Please. No way I’d hit that.)
Sexiest Woman in the World - Jessica Alba. According to FHM, anyway. See FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women in the World - 2007 for the other 99.
Sexiest Woman Alive - Charlize Theron. According to Esquire, she’s the sexiest woman on the planet for 2007.
Woman of the Year - Sarah Michelle Gellar The former Buffy star won the honor from Maxim magazine. For 2008!
Salma Hayek hasn’t always been so naturally endowed. In fact, she was bullied for how small her breasts were when she was younger. So she did something about it - she prayed for bigger ones, and apparently it worked.
She says,
 “My mom and I stopped at a church during a road trip we were making from our home in Mexico. When we went inside, I prayed for the miracle I wanted to happen. I put my hands in holy water and said: ‘Please God, give me some breasts’.
“And he gave me them! Within a few months, I developed a growing spurt, as teenagers do, and I was very pleased with the way I grew outwards.”
Amen. Maybe she should have stopped praying during pregnancy because she got huge. That just can’t be comfortable.
