The day after celebrating her first Mother's Day, new mom Salma Hayek became a godmother to a new racing sailboat christened "Il Mostro," or "the Monster."

Hayek, looking fit and gorgeous in a shapely herringbone suit, silver blouse and knee-high beige boots, attempted to break a bottle of champagne over the bow of the massive sailboat, moored in the harbor outside Boston's Institute of Contemporary Art Monday night. (The boat is sponsored by Puma, which is partially owned by Hayek's fiancé, Francois-Henri Pinault.)

It only took the petite actress five tries – and a little muscle from a nearby sailor – to crack the bottle.

Salma Hayek: 'I Was Born to Have This Girl'

Originally posted 03/05/2008 12:30PM

In a new interview, Salma Hayek confesses she suffered from diabetes during her pregnancy and that she was hoping for a son – but now she's loving being a mom to her five-month-old daughter, Valentina Paloma Pinault.

"I feel I was born to have this girl," she tells the April issue of Glamour magazine.

Pregnancy for the 41-year-old, first-time mom was a humbling experience. "I had diabetes while I was pregnant. I became huge. And I said, 'This is what it takes for me to have this baby, and I really want it.' Then you don't know if it's going to be healthy; you are completely out of control," she says. "So the experience really makes you humble."
