Salma Hayek In New Burger King Ad


In a new Burger King ad Salma Hayek portrays three very different personalities, a geeky school girl, a seductive temptress and an overworked mother. 
While each character might look very different all three want one of the fast food restaurant's new garden salads.

Salma looks unrecognisable as a geeky student sporting glasses and braces as she approaches the counter to order food. 
The actress appears cross-eyed and is seen awkwardly asking for food, before adding: 'Give it to me baby'.
The second persona Salma takes on is the glamorous temptress, the character most close to her usual appearance.

That's more like it! Salma is seen approaching the counter as a glamorous lady in a figure hugging outfit

She approaches the counter in a plunging dress and whispers into the ear of the fast food worker telling him she wants apple and cranberries.
The worker subsequently falls to the floor and a man jumps behind the counter to revive him. 
Her third character sees Salma juggling her children as she tries to grab a quick bite to eat. 
In each shot a man is seen behind her trying to note what kind of people are ordering what food
Powers of persuasion! The actress is seen leaning in and whispering in the restaurant worker's ear

Salma isn't the only celebrity to work on the 'exciting things are happening at Burger King' campaign.
David Beckham and Sofia Vergara have also appeared in adverts for the fast food chain.

Salma is certainly no stranger to appearing in fast food adverts and in 1988 she appeared in Burger Boy ad playing Red Riding Hood.

  1. Aging badly. Using the last of her sex appeal to make a few bucks. That said, can't say I blame her. The money-making window for actresses is so narrow nowadays.
