'We are the generation that said, "We’re not going away at 30,"' Salma declared, according to Variety news editor Maane Khatchatourian.

Adding: 'They cannot ignore us anymore.'

She went on to describe how women represent 66% of the workforce but 'only get 10% of the income of the world.'

Making a difference: Hayek then talked about Chime For Change, which she co-founded with Beyonce and the fashion brand Gucci

Later on: Jada Pinkett Smith chatted with the passionate activist

But she also spoke positively about the future: 'In the 20 years I have been an activist for women. I can smell the airs of change. Especially in this industry for the first time.'

Then speaking directly to the star-studded audience in attendance, which included Gwyneth Paltrow and Reese Witherspoon, Hayek made a bold statement.

'These romantic comedies are not working anymore. Why? We changed!,' she explained to uproarious applause.
