However, some fans also caught on toSalma Hayek‘s cringe reaction as Payne mentioned the name of Diddy. Fans on X claimed that Hayek knew what happened at the infamous Diddy parties which explained her reaction. Even wilder theories suggested that she knew of Diddy’s crime through her husband.
Hayek’s husband François-Henri Pinault is a billionaire and the CEO of the parent company of the luxury fashion brand Balenciaga. The fashion brand came under fire in 2022 for their ad campaign which consisted of images of children alongside stuffed animals adorned in bondage costumes.

The sxualization of children in the ads caught up to Hayek and her husband, despite the company issuing an apology and promising to take legal action against the individuals involved in it (viaFox News). Fans used this piece of information to connect Pinault to Diddy’s sx crimes, which has otherwise no proof as such. The wild social media comments read:

I think the world is ready to know the truth about Salma
This entire industry is absolutely cooked. I’d guess 80% are involved in some way from secret videos right up to pedophilia.

Do people still remember the Balenciaga gate? That was wild back then.
It’s one big club, and we are not invited. It does make you wonder about his death, as it sounded a bit suspicious, to me before just how he died, and who knows what he knew, or maybe he saw something, even involved with something, you never can tell.
Hayek has been part of another social media speculation recently after herawkward encounter with Nicole Kidman. Kidman allegedly was cold to Hayek when the two appeared at the Balenciaga show during Paris Fashion Week (via The Blast).
Fans Speculated Diddy’s Involvement In Liam Payne’s Death
