The stars were said to have been exchanging advice after posing for photos during Paris Fashion Week, when Kidman, tired of persistent requests for cameras, walked away, saying, “Don’t touch me!”

Kidman’s team claims that the actress was responding to a crush of photographers and was not upset at Hayek, who is married to the second richest person in the world, LVMH CEO François-Henri Pinault

Footage of the incident, which took place two weeks ago, appeared to show Kidman swatting Hayek’s hand away as she suggested they pose for a photo together.
