Salma Hayek's On-Camera Snake Scare: What Really Happened

They may be Hollywood actresses, but this drama was definitely not an act! While being interviewed by Extra's Terri Seymour in Malibou Lake, Calif., on June 8, Grown Ups stars Salma Hayek, Maya Rudolph and Maria Bello were interrupted by a four-foot long garter snake!

"It was complete and utter chaos!" Seymour tells TV Guide Magazine. "Salma just started screaming — she has a real snake phobia — and jumps onto the arm of her director's chair in high heels!"

The actresses were able to avoid the serpent long enough for it to slither into the lake, but Hayak — who was "hyperventilating and terrified" according to Seymour — had to take a break and call it a day after the scary situation.

"I've never had a snake or a creature slither into my interview and I've definitely never had three actresses balancing on top of each other," says Seymour. "It was quite a picture!"

Luckily for us, Extra's cameras caught the entire ordeal. How do you think the actresses reacted in this situation?
