Sports Illustrated’s reigning cover girl Salma Hayek celebrated her 59th birthday with a sunset toast aboard a yacht, flaunting her flawless physique that landed her on the cover of the iconic magazine.
“59 trips around the sun and still dancing ☀️💃🏻,” she captioned the Tuesday, September 2 Instagram post. “Cheers to all of you & thank you for the love 🎂🎉♥️.”
In the photo, she stuns in a red-hot bikini, soaking in the golden hour light on a yacht, drink in hand.
Hollywood came out in force in the comments section.
“Happy birthday,” wrote legend Anthony Hopkins. “We love you.”
“Happy birthday, queen!!” added actress Naomi Watts.
“You’re perfect,” raved Juliette Lewis, and later added, “And happy birthday” with four celebratory emojis.
