Salma Hayek's appearance at the Berlin International Film Festival caused quite a stir and left the red carpet awestruck, causing a sensation not just among the foreign press, but also among fans who clamored to snap a photo or get an autograph.

The furor was such that the event held for the film 'La Chispa de la Vida,' (or 'As Luck Would Have It') presented worldwide and directed by Spaniard Alex de la Iglesia, screened 40 minutes late as Salma graciously attended to fans and reporters.

Salma was also in great spirits, which was obvious at the press conference for the film, where she accidentally, and quite literally, butted heads with director Iglesias. Ouch! Check out the images.
