Good biz posts. Pardon me if it’s been said, can’t tell from a lot of the long posts. The only way for the way for Aubry’s business to succeed is to be in NYC 24/7 (especially in this stage in the game) and be a hands on manager even if means being there on weekends which are a restaurant (not just in NYC)’s busiest times. Can’t see it working if he’s commuting back and forth from both coasts constantly.

As for his association with Ms. Berry, I am sure he’s a nice guy or she wouldn’t be going out with him, if the relationship is to succeed at this point, then it would be more practical for her to move or spend more time in NYC, which I really can’t see her doing when she didn’t like doing that when she was married to David Justice. Once the business is established which sometimes can take up to 3-5 for a restaurant to succeed if not less (1-3 years), then I can see Aubry flying back and forth while his biz is soaring. Don’t know if Halle is that committed to wait that long.

Halle's fan @ 11/19/2006 at 11:26 am

We know what the problem is in Halle and Gabriel’s relationship. We see it. It’s simple. They still care about what “we” think. They aren’t comfortable with each other in public. This is a major reason why so many of us refuse to date people outside our race. We don’t like people looking at us and making us feel weird. We want to be ourselves. I love Halle, but I don’t think Gabriel is a long-term thing. They may get along perfectly when they are alone, so we don’t know about that. I just hope this Gabriel really cares about her like we know a black man would. She should not lose her power in this relationship and let him control her. Stay strong Halle.

veryinterestingcomments @ 11/19/2006 at 10:02 pm

Very interesting comments by all. Somewhat enlightening. Understand the last and other posters point of view which are all very valid. Personally (perception), I don’t think they should care what anybody should think if they feel secure enough in the relationship. If they don’t (no offense) then they don’t need to be together as with any relationship. In the dialog between Serious/Answer, I know a lot of white people, both male and female who aren’t jealous of them or even careless if they were dating, don’t fantasize about either of them or think he’s as hunky as people make him out to be, or think he’s nerdy, emasculate, geeky or whatever (etc.) , so I think those views aren’t just limited to just Black males. I think there pretty universal for those interested in them or Halle.

For the jealousy comments, why would someone (other than what’s been posted) be jealous of them or Halle. The very thought of living up outwardly in public to the expectation or fantasy of others when they/she is probably total different or opposite of who they/she really are/is. I remember reading a Rita Hayworth quote something about all the men she met fell in love with “Gilda” and woke up with me (or something to that effect) as well as a similar quote from Marilyn Monroe about being admired and how it’s nice but different from the way things really are. I consider Halle being as big as them/other who are considered sex symbols. I don’t know how she really does it.

One final note (sorry for the ramble), I was talking with a friend today while watching the football games talking about how interesting it how much time people including myself at times, spend on the various sites on the Internet, instead of putting the same energy into helping a variety of social causes and/or the war in Iraq. I know people come to these boards for a variety. Just think it’s interesting and something to think about.

publicappearances @ 11/19/2006 at 10:37 pm

For what it is worth, regarding Aubry’s appearances with Halle at Malibu protest and Carousel of Hope Gala, while they are causes that Halle believes in since she still has a beachfront home in Malibu and has diabetes (besides being a speaker/presenter at the event) was also to prepare Aubry for last Tuesday’s fete (while he was mainly in the background but still present in the pix of them for the press or standing with Halle for the media outlets). Halle’s no fool.Aubry probably couldn’t careless about those events and the comments were met with mixed reviews too.

hallesfuturechoices @ 11/19/2006 at 11:50 pm

Agree don’t think Aubry’s going to be long-term thing either. I seriously doubt from all of the comments that posted on the internet about over the past year or so, that Halle will date a White person again because of the tension in the Black community even if the guy is good looking, confident/secure about himself as a person and career/finances, masculine, intelligent or a brainiac, comfortable with her celebrity status, be in the background or a stay at home bf/hubby, look like they belong together,didn’t want anything from her, would want to be with her just because she’s her, treat her like an equal partner, etc., I think there will always be some dissention. Unless, the guy is Hispanic, hiphop style like one of the posters mentioned, she will probably go back to dating Black/bi-racial men.

furtherproof @ 11/20/2006 at 8:10 am

I’m the same poster who had the Aubry sighting!

This is just further proof that Aubry does not necessarily have “model” behavior. Now I know where his a** is, in his personality — he’s an a** hole.

restaurantworker @ 11/20/2006 at 10:39 am

FP he probably is. And it only be time before it closes. Having worked in restaurants all over the country, two days is not enough time to train waitstaff. No wonder they are always advertising in the paper and craigslist and other sources for servers, cooks, waitstaff, hostesses, etc. Obviously, Aubry doesn’t know jackshit about running a restaurant, treating staff and customers–since it’s hit Page Six doubt it will really be open much longer. Let it go and don’t go back. Just because he’s an ******* you shouldn’t be. Don’t make this your personal vendetta. He’ll slit his own throat which he seems to be doing nicely. Maybe Halle’s tired of his childish diva behavior?

Don’t think Halle and the media fiasco is going to help the place if not, the place would be swarming. Agree with the business posters postings. Regarding, all of the posters who have implied Halle gave him money for the place in spite of his ohso high modeling salary, I am sure if she did, her manager and/or lawyers had her have him sign some type promisary note. I’m sure if/when the place goes belly up, Halle will definitely sue his ass (and probably win even if he filed for bankruptcy-which with the new laws probably wouldn’t get because of his lavish lifestyle) to get her money back, she’s isn’t that much of a fool.

I seriously doubt they’re even still dating by accounts of Halle’s behavior and body language that night. If he was an ******* to you and his employees, I am sure he’s been an ******* to Halle and I really don’t think she would put up with that.

Think there’s only one room for a diva (which Halle may think she is, but isn’t) in Halle’s house (not their/our house).—LMAO. Both them and the restaurant are history. Will be interesting when the truth hits the tabloids, etc. Looking forward to Halle suing his ****** ass.

Annoyed Jolie fan @ 11/20/2006 at 11:05 am

WHAT’S MOST ANNOYING IS 1 OR TWO POSTERS HOGGING THIS BLOG. PLEASE STOP IT!!!!!!!!

Guess the bedroom isn’t the only place Gabby’s shooting blanks and coming up with nothing, huh? It must be riot seeing him as a diva ***** at photoshoots.

WTF is this really news worthy? This is getting more coverage than TomKats wedding, wtf or some other topic?

HeyAnnoyedJoliefan @ 11/20/2006 at 11:59 am

Hey Annoyed…other than a couple of people having more than one post seriously how can you tell one or two people are hogging the posts? I can’t tell other than a lot of people are saying the same thing, I’m kind of new to this blogging comment thing.

Go Halle! @ 11/20/2006 at 2:19 pm

I was hoping there was a new topic and photos this morning on my favorite couple at the moment. Too bad.

I’m going to post what I posted on the other site here too. I read a little above and I have to add my two cents.

First of all, there are a lot of haters here. I can “smell” you. You are pretending to be nonchalant, but then you are saying mean things quickly.

To one of the posters above, you quickly assume that you completely know Gabriel Aubry’s character by a couple or few incidents in a restaurant, calling him an @sshole. He just opened a new restaurant. So what about a stupid waitress. Stuff like this happens a lot. Ever watch “Top Chef?” I suggest you do. It’s all a part of the business. You cannot please everyone all the time. Some of you came on here to try to influence others to hate the guy because you do. It’s kind of easy to see.

I don’t care about you. Gabriel Aubry is trying out a new venture. It may succeed, it may not. He’s known for being shy and quiet. Maybe his social skills aren’t that great, but that doesn’t mean he is a terrible person. Halle wouldn’t go for a man like that, not for close to a year.

Anyhow I’m not going to waste my time with that since you already have your opinion. I’m here to say how much I ADORE THIS COUPLE and support them. I want Halle to have Gabriel’s child so badly! I am hoping and praying that instead of them having a lot of problems, they are actually the right people for each other. The age difference is only 10 years and he might want to have a child with her.

Maybe you have read this, but I am copying it here too. It’s Gabriel’s bio, which I find fascinating.

Biography

Gabriel Aubry was born on January 4, 1976 in a beautiful city Montreal, Canada. He is the ultra-elegant French Canadian representing Hugo Boss and Massimo Dutti.

The combination of elegance and masculinity has become the trademark of Gabriel Aubry in the world of fashion. As one of the top male models in the business, this proud Canadian radiates his glamour and elegance in many of his works. Perhaps, this quality is the essence that captivates his fans worldwide, and drives designers repeatedly to seek his image in representing their products, Hugo Boss, Tommy Hilfiger and many more.

Gabriel Aubrey is a native of Montreal Canada, where he was born and raised. Gabriel was discovered when He was approached by a stylist in a night club. His following exposure on local fashion news spreads lead to his early assignments with Calvin Klein, Versace, Exte and a few others, but Gabriel didn’t achieved his supermodel status untill the arrival of the new millenium, when he was exclusively featurd in Hugo Boss ad campaigns.

This beautiful adonis now belongs to the group of elite models in the industry. Currently residing in New York constantly under the attention of fashion media, Gabriel is still a little reserved and timid around paparazzi, maybe because he is from Canada and is still influenced by the relatively conservative Canadian tradition. This young man is very far away from the sexy image and “glamour”, of which his principal employer Hugo Boss portrays him in publicities. “I was always a super-shy person. I do not like to be made and followed by the cameras.” says Gabriel. Contrary to most women, men do not dream to be mannequins, they often become it by accident. It is the case of Gabriel being discoverd in a night club.

Gabriel is described as the prototype of androgynous or boyish model that seems to prevail at the moment in the fashion. The sharpened nose, the blue eyes and the squre chin are his own characteristics in addition to his challenging and seductive glance.

He is on the runways in fashion capital cities in the world. He also projects a portrait of the perfect gentleman during his photoshoots. His work for Hugo Boss is one of his most important stints as a model, joining Mini Anden and Amber Valleta in the campaigns of Spring/Summer 2002. Both photoshoots were done with the accomplished photographer Craig McDean.These campaign ads has been described as one of the best examples of romanticism in high fashion advertisements.

On the runways, he is one of the favorites of Versace, Cerruti and Ralph Lauren, and among others. He established the fact that Canadians can and will be known as one of the most important supplier of the best male models for the fashion industry, joined by such names as Phil Missig, Joel McMillan and Robert Perovich to prove just that.

Go Halle! @ 11/20/2006 at 2:33 pm

Notice the bio called him a BEAUTIFUL ADONIS! My sentiments exactly. It also said he is influenced by the “conservative Canadian tradition.” I love it! I can see why Halle probably flipped for him the first time she laid eyes on him. He has that quiet, sexy kind of way. All he has to do is stand still and look beautiful. He’s not at all the average Joe Blow. Most men, even models do not have his kind of chiseled features. His shyness is usual for really beautiful people. They get noticed wherever they go, so they usually try to stay out of the limelight in their personal lives.

I hope Jared is able to land some new photos soon. It’s driving me crazy!

This is my first post here. Agree that the posts are too long and people are definitely repeating themselves. Looks like the last two posts were posted by the same person and there may be a few or a couple who have posted multiple times under different names but I don’t honestly believe that 1-2 posters are responsible for all these silly bloggings, come on get real. I would think people have better ways to make use of their time or seriously don’t think there that many no life losers on the internet who are going to post to this blog or other blogs on the happy couple. Doesn’t justjared like a lot of other blog sites check email addresses if they’re real or not or if posts are coming from the same email address? That would be the only way to determine if the same person/s are doing all the work/damage. I am not sure if that answers HeyAnnoyed’s question? If any others have any comments that might answer his/her question. Finger pointing, calling them haters (which some of them very well may be), etc. is solving the problem or answering the question.

gabrielseemsbi @ 11/20/2006 at 5:36 pm

This photo makes Gabriel look kind of well feminine! The way he holds Halle isn’t like this.

equiringminds @ 11/20/2006 at 5:42 pm

LOL3 what was he telling the bartender….sorry didn’t mean to sound like a gossip ****.

To Mac “N Cheez ho–if you weren’t bitter why are you posting the same crap here as on other blogs i.e. d-listed (and god knows what others)?Who cares about NYPost piece!

thisisprobablytotalbullshit @ 11/20/2006 at 6:00 pm

Some of the comments I expected, but I am guessing 80-90%+ of the posts are total bullshit.

LOL3idontbelieveu @ 11/20/2006 at 6:09 pm

LOL3, bad day possibly. But really don’t by the jive about Gabby-baby talking to the bartender about Halle in any context–very tacky and unprofessional. Unless you want to illuminate us on what you heard?

LOL3idontbelieveu @ 11/20/2006 at 6:18 pm

LOL3, forgot to add if you really did actually say something to the bartender about Halle he probably knew you were listening and did it on purpose.

herloveofblonds @ 11/20/2006 at 7:58 pm

Link to Halle’s love for blonds—link to the Chicago Dr. who tried to extort $80K from her.

therealness! @ 11/20/2006 at 11:29 pm

Gabriel is Halle’s b*tch of course he would be talking about Halle. She’s using him to fill whatever void is in her life. She would not even give him a second look if a REAL man was looking at her. In terms of the poster, posting various post about Gabriel. No big deal to me, probably just trying to spread the word! Gabriel is a punk! And for two different people to say so, means something!

therealness! @ 11/20/2006 at 11:31 pm

Did one of you just say Halle would not go for an a guy who was an a** hole! Clearly you’ve missed the story of her life LMAO!!!

Androgynous for sure!

thefeminieone! @ 11/20/2006 at 11:34 pm

Gabriel I have one thing to say to you, based on a link I just clicked above! HOW YOU DOIN! (when one is suspected of being gay!)
