SI Swim revisits sizzling, ‘immortal’ bikini-clad Salma Hayek, 59 image

Hollywood icon Salma Hayek Pinault, 59, simply slayed as the 2025 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue cover star, even bikini-clad photo steamier than the next. And the brand just took to social media to revisit one of her most sizzling looks.

In the photo, she leans in the sand on a Mexican beach in a crocheted bikini, which led one fan to comment, “Apart from the fact that it says Sports and this is not very practical for any water sports, D*mn she is looking fire.”

The very not-for-sports bikini is a design by Alameda Turquesa.

“Salma Hayek Pinault was photographed by Ruven Afanador in Mexico at the eco-luxury resort Cuixmala for the 2025 SI Swimsuit issue,” the brand captioned the share to X (formerly Twitter).

“She needs to share whatever witchcraft she’s using to apparently be immortal,” gushed one fan.

“I can't believe my eyes,” said another.

“God took his time,” raved a third.

“Wow!” Added a fourth. “Is she aging backwards?”

“An Academy Award nominee who began her career in telenovelas in the late 1980s, Hayek Pinault is among the most iconic actors in the world,” reads an accompanying article in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit. “Finding her breakout moment through the 1995 Robert Rodriguez film Desperado, she became a household name through movies of the ‘90s and 2000s. She received an Oscar nomination for her unforgettable performance as Mexican painter Frida Kahlo in Julie Taymor’s Frida (2002).”
