Meet Valentina Pinault, Salma Hayek's Daughter

In her Vogue Mexico interview, Valentina whips out a prayer candle — with singer Lana Del Rey on it. "She takes it to school or wherever we travel," Hayek said, referring to the candle. "When it comes to music ... It's Lana Del Rey. I pray to Lana Del Rey," Valentina says. Understandable.

Lana isn't the only icon Valentina loves. Other music favorites include Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Nicks, and Kanye West. "She has a full-body Kanye West poster on her ceiling," Hayek reveals. A smiling Valentina adds, "Yes, I love Kanye." However, when she first met Kanye, she didn't necessarily give the best first impression. Evidently, her mom woke her up early, telling her to get dressed and that Kanye was coming. Then, when Valentina had the chance to meet one of her idols, she didn't say "I love your music" or any of the typical things. Instead, she blurted out, "Do you want Starbucks?" Apparently, her slight awkwardness is part of her charm. "I always do something like that," she laughs.
