As part of the new issue of British Vogue, the Duchess Meghan Markle has chosen 15 women who, in her opinion, represent the “power of change”. Salma Hayek also appeared on the list, who actively supports and defends the rights of women, as well as does charity work. Readers learned from a recent CNN article that the issue of British Vogue Megan and Salma were discussed over the phone.
Secret telephone conversation
Hayek talked about how she first spoke with the editor of British Vogue magazine Edward Enniful. “I was in the car then, and Edward said:“ Listen, I'm going to pass the phone to someone. Are there people around you? ” I answered positively. Then he said: “You are not allowed to divulge the name of the person with whom you will speak now, okay?” Honestly, at first I thought it was some kind of joke, the actress admits. - Before Megan introduced herself, I was pretty sure that Naomi Campbell would start talking to me now. It seemed to me that they were just mocking me and want to make a cruel joke. ”
As soon as Hayek heard Markle's voice, fear disappeared. The actress carefully listened to the duchess and with great pleasure agreed to take part in the project. Megan has long described the premise for the new Vogue release, and explained that the project will be released in support of women. Although at first Hayek thought she was simply being asked for advice or a short interview with the magazine.

At the end of the conversation, the Duchess boldly declared: “I want the cover of this issue to be decorated with photographs of women who changed and influenced me.” Then Salma realized that she was one of these women.
Why Markle chose Hayek
The reader may wonder, why did Hayek earn a place on the list of the most influential women? The fact is that Hayek is a member of several charitable organizations that support women (for example, the Keering Foundation and Chime For Change). Since 2016, she has sponsored an orphanage in Mexico.
Salma also actively protects the rights of refugees. Markle simply could not ignore the golden heart of the famous actress.
Interestingly, of the 15 women selected for the cover, Hayek was the only one who knew about the idea of a new issue before the photo shoot. Salma was proud of herself: “For me, keeping a secret of this magnitude is a great honor. Only me and the photographer Peter Lindberg knew about Megan’s idea, ”the actress explained. “And all those girls who were shot for the cover - they didn’t even know that Megan was there. They had no idea why they were filming them. ”
