Oscar-nominated actress Salma Hayek
plays a lesbian taco in Sausage Party, which opened nationwide
on Friday.
The animated film follows Frank (voiced
by Seth Rogen), a hot dog sausage in search of the truth about his
existence.
Hayek plays Teresa del Taco, a taco
shell after Brenda Bunson (Kristen Wiig), a hot dog bun and Frank's
girlfriend.
Hayek told E! News that she kept the
part a secret from her husband Francois-Henri Pinault. “I kept it
a secret until I showed him the trailer,” she told the outlet at
the film's Los Angeles premiere. “He was like, 'What?' I was like,
'It's not for children.'”
“I read the script,” she added.
“It was very funny. It was completely outrageous and so I said,
'Let's go!'”
