Celebrity

While appearing on 'The Graham Norton Show', the 49-year-old actress revealed she once faked a story that she had an affair with someone else just to save a puppy.

AceShowbiz - Salma Hayek is an animal lover. The 49-year-old actress appeared on "The Graham Norton Show" Thursday night, June 2 and she revealed she once pranked her husband Francois-Henri Pinault just to save a dog.

When Graham Norton asked her about her hobby of collecting animals, she explained that she had 30 pets, including ten dogs, five parrots, alpacas, horses and cats. Although both her and her husband love animal so much, he once said that he wanted no more because they already had a lot of animals in their house.

"I had promised my husband I was going to stop because at the time I had 10 dogs, five parrots, alpacas, horses, cats, and by the way, one without a tail, the other one without a leg," Hayek explained. "And they always find me, they come to me these animals - which he doesn't believe me, but they do - and I promised him no more."

Hayek said that she was so upset when she found a puppy abandoned and wanted to rescue and take care of it, but she was confused because she already promised her husband that she wouldn't bring any other animal home. "We were up to 30 animals and I swore no more," she continued. "And I was there [filming a movie in Bulgaria] and a little puppy who was abandoned and was going to die - I won't tell you the sad story because this is like a comedic show - he came to me and I couldn't help it, and I picked him up. His name is Ochoa, after the goalie [Guillermo Ochoa] of the soccer team in Mexico."

She then had a crazy idea. She told a fake story that she had an affair with someone else. "I came up with this brilliant idea to pretend that I was having an affair with somebody, and at the end I would say, 'No, it's not an affair, I picked up a dog' and then he would feel better," she said.

She sent her husband a message and asked him to call her. On the phone conversation, she said, "Listen, I feel so terrible, I don't know how to say this to you and I know this is not going to go down well and I'm really nervous and please have mercy on me... I have patience. Be understanding. It's been so stressful, I'm so tired, and I'm so lonely here for so many days and you do things in this crazy state!"

Her husband simply responded, "Oh, please don't tell me you picked up another dog."
