Mexican actress Salma Hayek turned last-minute party planner when the woman she hired to turn her daughter's second birthday celebration into a bash, quit two days before the big event.

The actress hit the streets of Los Angeles in disguise to pick up pinatas, favours and food and then faced a frantic search for a Barney to perform at her daughter Valentina's party, reported hollywood.com.

"I was terrified. I wanted Valentina (daughter) to love it and I hired somebody to plan it for me. She quit two days before the party, once everybody was invited. I have no idea why she left me with nothing," said Hayek.

"And the worst part was I told Valentina that Barney was coming and she was so excited. I invited the people, she knows the whole programme and I have nothing. Then I decided to do it myself," she added.
