London, Oct 23 (ANI): Salma Hayek turned party planner when the women hired to organise her daughter Valentina’s second birthday bash quit two days before the celebration.

“I was terrified. I wanted her (Valentina) to love it and I hired somebody to plan it for me, because it’s my first time and she had gone to some that I was really impressed (by) and I didn’t want her to feel that I did a lesser party. She quit two days before the party, once everybody was invited. I have no idea (why)… She left me with nothing,” the Daily Express quoted Hayek as saying.

“And the worst part was I told Valentina that Barney was coming… and she was so excited… I invited the people, she knows the whole programme and I have nothing.

“I said, ‘I’m gonna do this, I’m taking over… I decorated it myself… I got the tables and the little chairs… All the stuff we cooked in the house

“I tried to get a Barney and they told me, ‘No, no, no, that’s illegal… They copyright him and it’s illegal to have a Barney.’ And I’ve already told her (Valentina) and she’s so excited. I’d never do anything illegal but I was so desperate to make her happy that I did try to go into the black market… These are the things you do as a mother.”

“Right before, I finally got him and I said, ‘Valentina, we got Barney, baby…’ and she goes, ‘Oh mama, I don’t like Barney anymore. I want Dora or Elmo…’ We fired the illegal Barney and we got Dora… There are plenty of Elmos and Doras (and) they’re legal,” she added. (ANI)
