Actress Salma Hayek isn't worried about turning 50 next year because she is confident she "can still be beautiful" regardless of her age.

The "Tale of Tales" star has seven-year-old daughter Valentina with husband Francois-Henri Pinault.

"In the past, when I tried to imagine what I would look like at my age, I was terrified. But now I've realised that I can still be beautiful approaching 50, and I feel very good about my life," Hayek told OK! Magazine, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

But Hayek admits she finds it harder to find good roles in Hollywood now.

She explained: "There aren't enough good roles for women. It's changing though and we're seeing more women playing the leads in comedies and action films. That's a good sign, but there's still an age bias we have to face.

"When I came here I was told by the time I hit 35 my career would be over. But I'm still working and getting good roles. I still haven't done my best work."
