Halle Berry’s Boyfriend Opens Cafe Fuego
You wouldn’t have known about this restaurant opening if not for Halle Berry, but her boyfriend, perfectly tousled hair male model Gabriel Aubry, had an exclusive tasting last night at his brand spankin’ new NYC restaurant called Cafe Fuego. Forget the food though, Halle looks berrylicious!! Halle, 40, and Gabriel, 30, have been dating for over a year now…
Gabriel is the co-owner of Cafe Fuego with business partner Stephane Bibeau (pictured below). OK magazine reporter Delaina Dixon also pictured below.

I can’t believe it! You guys are still going strong. I hope there will be some new info soon. I guess Halle and Gabriel are one of the more popular topics right now. I was looking at some of Gabriel’s photos on some of the other sites. He is so handsome, I don’t care what anyone says. I have perfect vision.
Gabriel seems like one of those incredibly good-looking men who is not into himself. You probably won’t catch him religiously pumping iron at some gym. He appears to be naturally thin and uninterested in promoting some kind of studly image. Kind of like those tall, beautiful female models who don’t worry about dieting or exercising. They’re natural beauties and don’t have to “work at it” like most other people.
Sorry flamers. I know you want to stake your claims here, but like the poster above said, “It would be rather moot at this point.” Not gay.
To stillnothingnew
OH MY GOD!! I Would never want to date that skinny pale dude. Clearly you are high! Maybe you want to date him, but PLEASE don’t assume others do. Gross!
To ALEJANDRO DE LA CRUZ
Spell Halle’s name right! Second, yeah I remember the times when I heard how much Halle and Eric were in love with one another and truly were making an effort to make it work. Like another poster stated, Halle and Gabriel are in the honeymoon stage, true love is tested through time. Also, with regard to one of the posters saying Halle probably dated celebrity black men because they were successful…HOW RACIST! Are you saying that only celebrity black me are successful, Halle could have found plenty of black men who are doctors, business men, lawyers, etc. PLEASE!
Believe both are infactuated with one another for now (what Halle sees in him I don’t know, but to each his or her own!) But I think once that wears off and it will, both probably are extremely insecure (I mean Halle has been in therapy since she was ten). Agree with one of the other posters that them constantly shopping and eating out (although Gabriel is “this great cook”) somewhat shows both crave attention. I think eventually all of this will get old to both of them, Gabriel may in fact likely start to crave more fame on his own (real fame, not model fame) and may, to feel MORE “MANLY” and in control, take up with some non-popular beauty, won’t be hard for him to find and it’s funny how men trip when they start dating pretty women, they think they can get any other woman and like Chris Rock said, although he’s a comedianne it’s true, “a man is as faithful as his options” and Gabriel probably gets a lot thrown at him. And to be real, Halle’s trust factor for men is probably not that good, after leaving a marriage with a man who cheated in the dozens, Halle probably has had a PI on Gabriel, she probably checks his messages, after a while, that will get old too. Plus, Halle, according to her, is the type to carry baggage from her previous relationships to her current ones.
Plus, the story never changes, and quite frankly, Halle’s story never changes. She keeps making the same old mistakes, except each time she tries to do it in a different way, almost manipulative (like now she’s like “okay I just won’t ever get married again!”). But the fundamental lesson is still missed by her.
I think these posts are funny, because people use to hate on Eric when he first started dating Halle. And there were the lovers v. the haters there. The lovers quoting all of this stuff about Halle and Eric, how happy she looked with him v. how she looked with David, how sensitive and perfect Eric was and the haters pretty much doing what some are doing here. In fact, it got so bad for Eric, he had to shut down his fan message board on his record company’s website. So I agree the messages probably won’t break them up.
It will be the fundamental mistakes Halle consistently makes, and based on what I’ve heard her say recently, she will likely continue to make them. Based on what people, who have known her for a while (before Eric, during Eric, and waaaay before Gabriel) life and love seem to be a game to Halle and unfortunately it was her childhood that put this in her mind, she’s on this constant quest for EXTREME attention and for a father figure, she even calls this dude I know “daddy” in letters she used to write to him (he once tried to hit on her too, funny!) And she says her manager is the only father she’s ever known. WOW! Major issues and kind of sad.
With regard to Gabriel, I don’t doubt, he has some issues too, especially if he grew up like he did (foster homes, etc). At the end of the day, their looks are just that and do not make them a good couple, plus looks are fleeting, you can already see the wrinkles coming up on Gabriel’s face and definitely on Halle’s. And not to sound funny but it’s the “beautiful ones” that have the most problems, and not to quote Prince, but the “beautiful ones hurt you every time.” LOL! It’s true! But for the time being, I hope Halle enjoys this while it last.
Also, to the poster who keeps bringing up interracial couples in Hollywood as if that show blacks don’t enjoy each other’s company, please stop YOUR hating. Black love is beautiful and just because a select few of celebrities date outside their race does not diminish that. Celebrities should never be a representation of the real world. It has been my experience that MOST black women would rather be with a black man. In fact, Halle said her best date ever was with a black guy she once dated, so please stop the hating! And she said this when she was with Gabriel. I’m pretty sure if Halle could have found the “perfect” black man, she seems to always be in search of, she would be with him now (i.e., David Justice, Eric Benet, Michael Ealy, Shemar Moore, etc. etc..)
And yes I know there is no such thing as a “perfect man;” again one of Halle’s many flaws, she’s constantly looking for the perfect man, and like Barbara told her, “he does not exist.” I guess she felt she found a ken doll with this new guy. WHATEVER!!! LOL! Ken might turn into Mr. Hyde if she continues to look at the outside.
One thing I know is true, the world is created in balance, Gabriel to some of you (not really to me) but obviously to some of you is the finest man walking, that probably means he has even more of a flaw somewhere else (i.e., personality, mentality, etc.). Agree with the other poster. Time will truly tell who this guy is, and I don’t think he’s as good as he “appears.” But that’s just me, I don’t deal in the superficial.
I don’t know if you were referring to me above, but if you were, let me set the record straight. I don’t care who dates who, okay? Black men dating other races does not bother me. I have never had a problem attracting men in general, so I don’t feel threatened about the races mixing.
I mentioned Ice-T here and also on the other topic, but I couldn’t care less about Ice-T. Yes, his wife looks silly and he seems to be proud (”guys, look what I’ve got) about her flashing herself, but I guess that is their thing. It’s true that most blacks do not date interracially if you compare them to the total black population.
I mentioned Ice-T because you would think he would be the LAST black man on earth who would marry a blonde bimbo. But he did it and nobody said a thing about it. I think it’s because people in the industry would be too scared to tell him what they probably truly think. You know that when people see him showing up with Coco, they are getting a good chuckle.
Halle has problems, but she is not a bad woman. Since when did having problems equal a bad character? Gabriel may have some issues too, but that doesn’t mean he’s not worthy of her love. That doesn’t mean he is some kind of dirtbag white boy. In fact, Gabriel and Halle may have more in common than most people think. Maybe they understand each other. Some people say she is too needy. Well, Gabriel may be sensitive to her needs and want to take care of her. And he may be strong enough to handle whatever she dishes out, whereas maybe the other men were not. Sorry.
Personally, I think Halle is probably TOO SWEET for the men she has gotten involved with. I think most of them are cheaters and they realized that she’s a woman with class who would not put up with their mess. So, they want to go on to someone else who will let them have their cake and eat it too. So many married men cheat, but their wife turns her head. I know plenty of couples who have lasted for years and years together. Other people assume the unions are successful and happy because they’re still married, but there is cheating (usually by the men) in the couples’ history. Seems to me that part of staying together is commitment to the union in spite of cheating.
You are assuming so many bad things about Gabriel when all he has done is date Halle Berry. There is no major scandal. No one in the fashion industry is screaming that he’s gay. Now, you are even trying to make people believe that he’s looking old or not attractive. Give me a break! The man is gorgeous.
Go Halle!
To each his or her own, but for me Gabriel is not gorgeous. Halle has dated MANY good looking men, Shemar Moore comes to mind (now for me he’s gorgeous! I have actually seen him in person, she dated him for like a good year or more) so I HOPE it’s not just the looks Halle feels for this dude. And when you take away the airbrushing, your dude’s wrinkles are coming in. Of course they would, he’s blonde with blue eyes and frequently gets a tan, in fact I believe he once said something shallow like, if it weren’t for tanning his life would be a mess. okay????? Anyway, you are right Halle should date whoever she wants, we’ll see what the future holds. And yes Ice-T and the “white bimbo” truly a mess!
To “the truth”:
That’s right! And Shemar actually has a body. LOL!
The gorgeous one is BOOOOOORIS KODJOE! And I have to agree. Gabriel HONESTLY looks like any male model on the runway. There’s really nothing special about him, he could almost look like a female. In fact, I thought Paris Hilton was dating him, because he at least from a far kind of looks like her boyfriend or ex-boyfriend now. But anyway, BORIS KODJOE is D’ MAN!!!!!!!!!

Hey, I thought Shemar Moore was fine. He overdid it with the masculinity thing by wearing unbuttoned silk shirts to show his chest and acting super cool on black award shows, but I forgave him. When Shemar and Halle got together, I sure was hoping, but I knew it was too good to be true. The chance that those two would make it for the long haul was very slim indeed. They were too cute together. That’s like Mariah Carey and Derek Jeter or Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz. Somehow I just knew it would fizzle.
Gabriel Aubry is lanky, but he has a big, tall frame. That’s all the man needs, especially to be a top male model. If he got any bigger/muscular, he would be too much… probably too much man for Halle.
I’m willing to bet you that Gabriel finds Halle attractive because not only is she pretty, but she is nothing like him. His face is chiseled like a rock, and Halle’s look is soft and womanly. She’s getting a little bit of fullness in her cheeks and nose. They’re probably sharing good meals together. Yea, I’ll bet Gabriel would never be very attracted to a tall, lanky female version of himself - Leonardo DiCaprio’s ex old lady, Gisele Bundchen.
This is not to put down Boris, you know? I think he is definitely good-looking, but I have seen and personally met several black males with his types of features. That’s the reason why I don’t go gaga over him. But Gabriel look is not usual… not around the good ole USA. I’m telling you. His look isn’t even American. He looks foreign. His nose is not just a slim, pointy nose. It has some character to it. He also has a pretty thick accent. I find him sexy.
How was Shemar too good to be true, and Gabriel is not? Is it because Gabriel is white?
Do you know Gabriel? How do you know what he finds attractive? You must be him???? Trying to get on this board and start feeling yourself! Gabriel get off this board! And if you are Gabriel, or a family member, how dare you talk about black men like that. There is nothing like a black man on this planet. No man can touch the swagger of a black man! Halle even said that!
Go Halle!
Go away and just get you a white man! Boris is waaaaaaaay finer than Gabriel - it’s not just about the face, it’s the body, the abs, the smile, just everything!
I could straight up give you a list of white male models who look VERY similar to Gabriel…in fact that’s what I’ll do! I’m not saying they are twins with Gabriel, but the SIMILAR look you were referring to DEFINITELY applies to Gabriel!!!
First let me do a little boris and gabriel comparison…it’s all relative, but what the h*ll!
Gabriel in a speedo (Gross!) — he looks plastic! I don’t find anorexic men fine!

Let’s do this again!
http://www.electronicfiles.net/files/1289/Boris-Kodjoe-.jpg (YES!!!!!)
Does not look like they will allow all of the links to be posted on this site.
Gabriel (plastic and girly)!
http://www.theones2watch.com/milanomania/versace/images/big/11.jpg
But the point! Halle could have picked any of these dudes and folks like you would have been saying, “OH MY GOODNESS!” THEY ARE THE PERFECT COUPLE! THEY ARE GOING TO MAKE BEAUTIFUL BABIES! (Rolling eyes). In the end, Gabriel to Halle is just what he is in the modeling industry, an ACCESSORY!!!
The link you posted no longer works and has been previous been posted last week, check the posts from last week from the 20th (Gabrielseemsbi) http://www.theones2watch.com/milanomania/gq/images/big/14.jpg.
Whatever’s gonna happen will happen…it will be interested as The Truth said how things unfold. Aubry doesn’t hold a candle to someone like Brad Pitt or even Robert Redford who even at his age still got it going on or even Richard Gere who is probably more genuine than him.
Looks like Gabby’s getting more out of the deal than Halle. I know a lot of us woman have had our moments of going deaf, dumb and blind when it comes to men probably more than we’d want to admit or have fingers and toes. If Halle wants to continue to have blinders on, so be it. If she wants a cook she needs to hire a personal chef. If she wants an errand boy to do her shopping then she needs to hire one. Can’t see what she’s getting in the deal (and don’t mean that in a sexual way either)? Don’t mean to take the thunder out of anyone’s sails who think he’s a nice cute guy or they make a great couple, etc. He’s just not my type.
Sorry, he doesn’t look so hunky to me in these photos. Still looks like a coke head to me as those rumors are flying around everywhere about his eyes always looking pinned and bloodshot. Hope he doesn’t have Halle on the ****,which she has been quoted over the years of saying more than once-if he has that really will make me lose more respect for the both of them. Still don’t think that explains her unkempt appearance over the last few months. Don’t say Halle wouldn’t be with such a man both hubbies loved to party too in the past among other things. If she is truly codependent she would be with such a man and stand by his side at any cost.
Sorry, gals they don’t look soooooo dreamy in these photos as in others. They really do look like they’re on something seriously. Hope the coke rumors aren’t true and he better not have Halle on the ****. Don’t say Halle would never use coke, she has repeated said over the years that she would like to try it or she wouldn’t be with someone who partied, she was with both hubbies who used to. And if she is really as codependent as everyone says she is than she will stay by her man until she’s had enough. I really hope the rumors are false and Halle’s just looking tired.
From the looks of all the pictures, no wonder he has let his hair grow out and flop in his face and let the hair on his chest to look more manly macho, hmm?
Wait????? said:
And if you are Gabriel, or a family member, how dare you talk about black men like that. There is nothing like a black man on this planet. No man can touch the swagger of a black man! Halle even said that!
Wait, I’m not into swaggers. What are they good for? I like a package of good looks and good character. I don’t believe black men are any better than any other man. Men are men, just different features and cultures. That’s what’s wrong with the world now…. people are always trying to be better than somebody else.
I can say anything I want to say. I was talking about those specific men. I think Halle’s exes were cheaters. I really do. And I think she is a sweet, kind person.
I’m sorry if I hurt your feelings about Boris and Halle’s exes. I guess my comments on Shemar hit a nerve. Well, I called it like I saw it.
I do know a man who looks like Boris, but he’s not biracial. He has the same height, complexion, head shape, and similar eyes. Boris does have excellent bone structure. He’s has a pretty sculpted face. And of course, a great body.
I’m not telling you what YOU should find attractive. I just stated what I find attractive. I see a lot of white men every single day who do not turn my head, but I still maintain that Gabriel does not look like any ordinary white man. If he did, he most definitely would not be a top male model. Your argument is in vain.
Wait,
I’m not a psychic (like some of you here claim to be), so I don’t know anything for sure. I don’t know if Halle and Gabriel will work out. I don’t know what Gabriel likes in women. It’s called SPECULATION. I’m speculating that he probably would not be attracted to a Gisele Bundchen type. Just like dark-skinned black men are usually attracted to light-skinned black women. Everyone is throwing out speculations, and I can too. You choose to be negative because you probably don’t care much for white people, and I choose to be positive because I like Halle and hope she finds happiness. Until Gabriel does something really terrible (like cheating) I am willing to give that guy the benefit of the doubt.
When Halle got with her past men, I wasn’t bashing them. I hoped for her with each one (except Benet–my instincts), but after a while, I could see that things weren’t going well.
I thought Halle wouldn’t last with Shemar Moore because he is too pretty. He is known for his looks, and he knows it. He’s a nice man I am sure, but he has millions of women after him. Shemar probably won’t be ready to settle down for years to come. How could Halle compete with that? I just had a feeling their relationship would be doomed. Unfortunately, I was correct. They could’ve had gorgeous kids too.
I don’t think Gabriel Aubry is that into himself. He looks great, but he seems kind of simple after years and years of posing for the cameras. That may be the kind of man Halle Berry needs.
P.S.
I love Gabriel Aubry’s hair. Looks just fine to me.
Looking above at several comments:
Aubry stated on one site (in so many words) that he doesn’t like a woman who is so into her looks. He said he likes someone that he can have fun with. He likes to laugh with her.
