VENICE, Italy, April 25, 2009
(AFP) - Celebrities flocked to Venice on Saturday to attend the
wedding of Hollywood actress Salma Hayek to French billionaire
Francois-Henri Pinault.
Rock star Bono and actresses Penelope Cruz and Charlize Theron were
among the glitterati spotted at the La Fenice opera hall, as the
couple repeated the vows they made in February.
Former French president Jacques
Chirac, a Pinault family friend, was also among the guests, as were
film director Emir Kusturica and fashion designer Stella
McCartney.
Venice is where Mexican-born
Hayek, 42, met Pinault, 46, who is chief executive of PPR, the
luxury goods and retailing group controlled by his father Francois
Pinault which notably includes the Gucci Group.
The couple -- who had a daughter,
Valentina Paloma Pinault, in 2007 in Los Angeles -- married
discretely in Paris on Saint Valentine's Day.
