Salma Hayek is wowing fans with a new dance-happy video celebrating Shakira’s 47th birthday.
The Magic Mike’s Last Dance actress’ video is paired with the chorus from “Hips Don’t Lie,” Shakira’s 2005 hit with Wyclef Jean. The video shows Hayek, 57, from several angles as she shakes her hips while on a treadmill. She’s dressed in a black T-shirt, black sweatpants and sneakers as she flips her hair, poses in front of a full-length mirror and dances along to the song, All the while, the treadmill keeps her feet in motion.
The clips of Hayek dancing are cross-cut with video footage from Shakira’s music video. Hayek paid tribute to the Grammy-winning singer on Feb. 2 as she shared her video on Instagram.
“Happy birthday Queen Shakira, you are a musical goddess,” Hayek wrote. “Thank you for your music.”
Hayek added a “disclaimer” to her caption, warning her Instagram followers: “If you don’t have Latin or Arab blood, don’t try this at home.”
Several of Hayek’s fans laughed at the “disclaimer” as they left comments on her post about her dancing and shared their own birthday wishes for the “Whenever, Wherever” songstress.
“I have both Latin and Arab blood, so I will be trying this at home,” one person joked. Others suggested additional ethnicities that they felt should be exempt from her warning.
