One fan on Reddit came to Nicole’s defense, pointing out that she had just lost her mother the same month.
“I get that Salma was probably trying to direct her to pose for the cameras, but some people don’t like to be touched regardless of the situation, and you just gotta respect that,” they said.
The Mexico-born actress later shared pictures from the glamorous show, including one with the Moulin Rouge! star

One went as far as to say, “Nicole is jealous of Salma.”
