Does Salma Hayek have a little star on her hands?

In a recent interview, the actress opened up about 5-year-old daughter Valentina's love for the spotlight.

"She loves coming on the red carpet with me and she loves standing having her picture taken," Salma revealed.

It looks like the actress's only child has got a serious case of the fame bug, and at such a young age!

"She loves to have her red carpet moment," she added. "[She's] already a very talented actor."

While no real plans are lined up for Valentina, it may only be a matter of time before we see her face on the big screen.

She certainly wouldn't be the first kid in Hollywood to follow in their famous parents' footsteps.

Some of today's most famous starlets are daughters of people who have been in the business for decades.

Take Lily Collins, for example. While she didn't exactly become a pop icon like her father Phil Collins, she has made a name for herself in the limelight in the recent months.

Rumer Willis has taken to acting just like both of her well-known parents, and former stepfather. Between Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's longstanding careers, Rumer sure has some big shoes to fill!

There's also TV darling Katie Cassidy, who has been on numerous hit series' just like her father David Cassidy once was. The 26-year-old has been open about how her dad was one of the biggest inspirations behind her wanting to enter the acting world.

But let's not forget about the hottest starlet on the scene right now: Miley Cyrus!

The former Hannah Montana star has gone from Disney darling to sexy songstress in just a matter of years and undoubtedly has her father, country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, to thank.

And of course there have always been rampant bouts of nepotism in Hollywood. But sometimes a child's career outshines their parents'. A-list actresses Angelina Jolie and Kate Hudson certainly have created a name for themselves and cemented their place in the acting world outside of their famous gene pool.

So while Salma's daughter is all but 5, she may still become a household name after all!
