It's no surprise that the actress has become unwell, following a busy period promoting her latest film, which has seen her walk several red carpets.

She told GQ she began feeling unwell at the Golden Globes, when she was pictured wearing a sensational silver dress. The actress claimed she could tell she was coming down with something at the event, but struggled on.

Anyone who was dazzled by Salma at the awards ceremony would struggle to tell she was unwell, with her complexion glowing as always.

Compliments poured in for her sparkling look on social media. "Always gorgeous," one fan reacted, while another said: "Absolutely stunning." A third noted: "Most gorgeous dress of the night," and a fourth commented: "Love her dress it's stunning."

Salma's fans are equally excited to see her appear in Magic Mike The Last Dance, which is set to be the last in the franchise. The synopsis for the final ever film reads: "Mike Lane takes to the stage once again when a business deal that went bust leaves him broke and bartending in Florida."

Salma's entrance then comes in: "Hoping for one last hurrah, Mike heads to London with a wealthy socialite who lures him with an offer he can't refuse. And an agenda all her own. With everything on the line, he soon finds himself trying to whip a hot new roster of talented dancers into shape."
