Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry has been asked how she remains so sexy and vibrant with menopause around the corner.
Two words. Gabriel Aubry.
Halle, 43, has said Gabriel, who is 10 years younger, has made her so happy in their four-year relationship. They are parents of a 22-month-old daughter, Nahla, who blends the best of her gorgeous parents’ features.

It’s become trendy for older women, which are nicknamed Cougars, to date and marry younger men. TV Land’s The Cougar is a popular reality dating show based on single young men competing for an older woman. Actors Ashton Kutcher, 31, and Demi Moore, 47, are going strong after four and a half years of marriage.
But Berry, the first black woman to win an Academy Award for Best Actress for her affair with a racist white man in Monster’s Ball, doesn’t want to ruin a good thing by marrying Aubry. The couple recently was chastized by Canadians when Gabriel had Montreal airport security whisk him and Halle past the long line in U.S. Customs.
Gabriel, a 33-year-old French-Canadian model, has been with Halle longer than her ex-husbands, former Major League Baseball player David Justice and R&B singer Eric Benet. Both men cheated on the beautiful Berry during brief marriages.

So far Gabriel, an object of lust for many women, has remained true to Halle to outlast the men in her past and treat her like the lady she is.

True Halle Berry fans know that the Academy Award winning actress is partially deaf in one ear because she was brutally beaten up by a Hollywood leading man she dated when she broke into acting in the early 1990s.
Now, the former Bond girl and X-men starlet has revealed that her white mother was abused by her black father.
Berry has been volunteering at a South Los Angeles domestic violence shelter for many years, and she is asking fans to donate money for her cause to help the shelter cope through the country’s Deep Recession.
It has long been speculated that Berry’s abuser was actor Wesley Snipes. Berry, who has been married twice, has vowed to never marry again and has a baby girl with French-Canadian model Gabriel Aubry, who she has dated for four years.

Babies used to come after marriage, nowadays celebrity couples and normal folk are starting families before nuptials and some never walk down the aisle.
Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry has no plans for a third marriage, and the former Bond girl is expecting her second child with boyfriend, French-Canadian model Gabriel Aubry. The couple has dated for nearly four years.

Aubry, who is 10 years younger than Berry, has said he wants to have a big family. He comes from a family of eight.
Ever since Halle had the couple’s first child, Nahla, nearly two years ago, Gabriel has made it known that he doesn’t want his daughter to be an only child.
“I’ve never known anybody who’s had a single child,” Gabriel has said. “I’ve always been around big families. I believe in big families.”
Halle feels the same way. She has been trying to find a mate to help her make babies ever since her second divorce with womanizing singer Eric Benet in 2004. She dumped actor Michael Ealy, her co-star in TV movie Their Eyes Were Watching God, when he refused to father her child without marriage.

Now the X-Men and Catwoman star has a willing partner, but she better hurry and get all the babies she can because the biological clock is ticking on the 43-year-old aging beauty.

Both of Halle Berry’s high profile marriages ended in divorce.
So the X-men and Catwoman star has maintained a low-key relationship with Gabriel Aubry for nearly four years, and the Oscar-winning actress doesn’t plan to marry the French-Canadian model, who is 10 years younger.


Berry, who turns 43 on Aug. 14, has a 1-year-old daughter, Nahla, with Aubry. The sexy couple prefers to focus on the present rather than getting bogged down with vows to be together forever, the actress said.
“I’m so not the relationship go-to girl,” Halle recently said. “But I’m much clearer about what a relationship is, which is why I will never marry again. Gabriel and I have a great partnership and a lovely daughter.
“But I once was stupid enough to say, in a previous relationship, ‘I’m going to be with this person forever’, and realized, as I grew, that I don’t know if forever is possible. Gabriel and I don’t look at our relationship in terms of forever, we look at it as right here today. And today means being the best people we can be, the best parents we can be. It’s wonderful, but neither one of us feels the need to attach ourselves to each other for life – because it may not be that.”
Berry could always change her marriage stance, but for now, she isn’t taking any chances to see if the third time is the charm.

Guess short hair is in for black women.
Rihanna and Cassie shaved their heads, and now Ciara has revealed her new short cut on her Twitter page.
Ciara’s new hair style is reminiscent of Halle Berry’s in the Oscar-winning actress’ 1990s movie roles, Strictly Business, Boomerang and Executive Decision.

Ciara had golden locks when she was introduced with her debut album Goodies in 2004. Then, she went with dark tresses for her sophomore album, Ciara: The Evolution.

Now midway through the release of her third album Fantasy Ride, Ciara has gone to a short cut that appears to be inspired by Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry.
Even Halle Berry, who has worn her hair long for the last couple years, has gone back to a short hairdo.

The short dos complement Halle’s and Ciara’s faces, but I hope Beyonce and Mariah Carey don’t follow this trend and keep their flowing locks.

That “Halle Berry (She’s Fine)” song is quite catchy, especially the beat. Even Halle Berry has danced to the song in her honor on national TV.
But some members of Louisiana’s state legislature weren’t amused when Hurricane Chris recently rapped about the Oscar-winning actress in the state’s House chambers.
New Orleans representative Austin Badon chastised the young rapper, whose real name is Chris Dooley Jr., for the song’s offensive and derogatory characterization of women.
Here’s Chris performance in front of the Louisiana legislature:


Chris, a Hurricane Katrina survivor who claims to rap so fast that it’s like a hurricane blew through, said he wrote “Halle Berry” to build women’s self-esteem by expressing that there are women with various colors, shapes and features who can consider themselves as beautiful as the slender, sexy bi-racial Halle Berry, an A-list Hollywood actress and the dream girl for many black men for nearly two decades.
The song and video has started an online “Halle Berry” dance craze. Look at the “Halle Berry” video that started it all.
Chris was invited to perform for the Louisiana Legislature and his godmother Barbara Norton, a representative for Shreveport, La., presented the rapper with a House resolution for his musical achievements. Representative Badon didn’t like that Chris used the N-word and profanity throughout his “Halle Berry” song.

But the object of the song doesn’t object. Halle Berry danced alongside Ellen to the song in a March appearance on the Ellen Degeneres Show.
Watch Halle and Ellen dance to Hurricane Chris’ song:

What 40-something woman wouldn’t be flattered by inspiring a teenager to rap about her aging beauty?

Young women can only hope to look as beautiful as Halle Berry when they hit their 40s.
The Oscar-winning actress, who turns 43 in August, showed up to shoot a new Revlon cosmetics commercial Wednesday in a form-fitting white dress and showed no signs of left over baby fat from her recent pregnancy.
If you know any heavyset women with kids — or adult children, you’ve heard them blame childbirth from five or 30 years ago to their heaviness.
But Halle just had her baby girl, Nahla Ariela Aubry, a year ago and she already is back in her original Catwoman shape.
Berry’s Revlon shoot was poolside at a Los Angeles hotel, and she managed to keep her new short locks dry during a rainstorm with the help of an umbrella-carrying assistant.
With a multi-million dollar contract to be the face of Revlon, Berry has an extra incentive to maintain her timeless beauty.
And her daughter could follow in her footsteps because her dad and Berry’s boyfriend, 32-year-old Canadian-born model Gabriel Aubry, also has striking good looks.

Halle Berry recently revealed that she anonymously trolls social networking sites to find friends out of loneliness.
A few days ago, the former Bond girl showed up to Spike TV’s Guys Choice Awards in a black mini dress and lip-locked on the stage with fellow Oscar winner Jamie Foxx as she grabbed his crotch and he grabbed her tush for some over-the-top PDA. Spike will air the show on June 21.
But watch Berry’s PDA session with Foxx here:

Is this how a 42-year-old mother of a 1-year-old daughter should carry herself in public? Maybe she was trying to relive her Strictly Business days when she captured every black male’s attention wearing short, figure-fitting dresses as the female vixen in a string of B-movies in the early to mid 1990s that began nearly two decades of being voted among the most beautiful women in the world.
Foxx presented the X-Men and Catwoman star with Spike’s Decade of Hotness Award to affirm that the former 1986 Miss USA runner-up still has it. However, Berry is in talks with 20th Century Fox to play the role of a wife who along with her husband is desperate to have a baby in The Surrogate only to find out the surrogate mother they chose to carry the baby is insane.
Doesn’t Halle still look good enough to instead play the surrogate mom?
Her last movies were in 2007 with starring roles in Perfect Stranger with Bruce Willis and Things We Lost in The Fire.
Hopefully, Berry gets the part, so the twice-divorced, beautiful cougar can stop passing her time on social networks to fill her loneliness.

Maxim mag claims to compile “the definitive list of the world’s most beautiful women, but how can it be without Halle Berry?
Ask any black man who is his dream girl and the X-Men and Catwoman star is usually named. Jamie Foxx recently found out that Berry was touched by his performance in The Soloist and he responded that Berry is the reason he makes movies. And on Access Hollywood earlier this week, ER’s Mekhi Phifer told Mario Lopez that Berry is the woman he’d most like to bed.
So what’s with the snub on the latest Maxim 100 that was released this month? Michelle Obama and Gabrielle Union are on the list, but not the Oscar-award winning and beautiful, biracial Berry. And what about the dis of Beyonce and Kim Kardashian, who are No. 52 and 53, respectively on the list while Angelina Jolie is a respectable No. 26?
To the mag’s credit, Maxim named Berry to its list of the nine hottest pregnant women, two years ago. But what about now that she’s lost the baby fat. Isn’t she just as hot or hotter than recently pregnant Christina Aguilera and Jolie, who made Maxim’s top 100 and top 9 lists.
Berry should be on Maxim’s 100 list, too. Well, at least Berry made AskMen.com’s top 99 Women of 2009, where she is ranked 13th, and she also is listed among People Magazine’s latest 100 Most Beautiful People in the world.
Who’s in charge of Maxim’s list? It certainly looks more questionable than definitive.
See for yourself,
