This appearance was twice as hot! At the Wall Street Journal Magazine's Innovator Awards, which took place on Tuesday evening at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Penélope Cruz and Salma Hayek not only appeared holding hands on the red carpet, but also exuded a lot of sex appeal.

Salma Hayek and Penélope Cruz have been good friends for many years. Their joint appearance at the award gala in the Big Apple was therefore no surprise.

Sexy double
Neither were the sexy outfits worn by the two Hollywood beauties. While Hayek put on an amazing performance in a red, floor-length, off-the-shoulder dress with slightly flared hips, Cruz was in no way inferior to her friend.

Javier Bardem's wife drew attention to her cleavage in her glittering silver dress thanks to a waterfall neckline. A long leg slit also showcased the 50-year-old's fabulous legs.

Ratajkowski and Grande also in attendance
However, Cruz and Hayek were not the only celebrities who caused a flurry of flashbulbs that evening. Emily Ratajkowski, for example, caused a stir in a short dress with lines of text printed on it.

Ariana Grande looked like a princess in a white tulle dress with floral embroidery. And Reese Witherspoon, who had brought her son Deacon Phillippe with her, opted for classic black and ruffles.
