Salma Hayek left fans majorly divided on Thursday when she shared a very surreal experience on Instagram.

The Mexican-born star, 54, videoed herself in the stands of a football game in London where social distancing made for a bizarre scene. 

"It was a strange experience being in an empty stadium," Salma wrote as she panned around the practically deserted sporting venue. "I can't wait for this to be over so we can enjoy soccer the proper way."

While many followers agreed and voiced their sadness at the COVID-19 restrictions, meaning fans can’t go to the games, there were also some tense comments.

"At least you're allowed to go," wrote one. "Nobody else can but yeah, I get your point."

Others also shared their envy over her ability to attend the match and said: "Wish I had star status so I could go," and some even questioned if her actions were legal!

Luckily for Salma she has plenty of loyal followers rooting for her and they quickly jumped to her defense.

However, she admitted the first COVID-19 lockdown was hard for her daughter.
