Halle & Gabriel’s Hot Dinner Date

That woman is damn pretty too!

Yep, the dude is darn good-looking!! They will make beautiful babies. :))

if they have children, it will be too much. their children will be out of this world beautiful!

JJ–thanks again. Looks like you’re catching up for lost time from when there was a lull. Is that the full article or a preview-guess I can check this weekend. Great pix and glad to see them actually doing stuff together. It’s nice that there aren’t any haters posting thank god. Yes, JJ you are correct Halle’s desire for motherhood and it being implied that she wants his children, which unless it’s in the interview or another, come out and said he’s going to be the father of her children, naturally or adopted. Not being a sore thumb or a hater just stating the facts. I hope he’s the one she does settle down with and has a family when she makes the time from her busy schedule.

I can’t wait for the Parade mag! This confirms what I said months ago. This wasn’t a case of a pretty black woman deciding to “try” a white man for a change because her relationships with black men didn’t work. Halle Berry is not dissing the black man at all. This was pure animal lust! Attraction. She saw the man, and she liked what she saw and couldn’t help herself! When chemistry is there, it’s there.

A lot of people don’t want to admit it, but they are often attracted to lots of different people of different races during their daily lives. But if they are not “open” to the idea of a relationship with that person (for whatever reasons), they keep on stepping and deny their feelings. However, the attraction is still there.

I’m so happy Halle Berry didn’t close her mind in this case. I’d flip for Aubry myself if that man was in my presence. I think he’s gorgeous. You never know. Aubry could be end up being the love of Halle Berry’s life. What a beautiful couple they are.

Thanks JJ…saw the article…she didn’t go into the details of wanting to be a mother or have kids with Aubry, did I miss something in the article unless it was just a synopsis in the intro. Still think the In Style and Reader’s Digest piece’s were better. Can’t wait for Esquire and Ebony to come out. Didn’t think there was much info there. Please let me know if I didn’t hit the right link or something. Will check out the pictures. Does she say in the article she wants to have his kids or goes into her plans at some later date in the future for motherhood?

It must be a full moon or something….I don’t see the quotes you are referring to either after clicking on the link–where are they?. Here’s what I got:

PHOTOS & INTERVIEW
Halle Berry - Web Exclusive

In a revealing interview in this Sunday’s PARADE, Oscar-winner Halle Berry discusses new details of her failed marriages, her desire to be a mom and how therapy changed her outlook on life. Below, read our Web exclusive interview with Berry, who costars with Bruce Willis in the upcoming thriller “Perfect Stranger” (opening April 13).

Also, photographer Michael Larsen, of the husband-and-wife team Larsen & Talbert, takes you behind the scenes of PARADE’s photo shoot with Berry.

On surfing the Web…
In Perfect Stranger, Berry uses a false online identity to catch her friend’s killer. When asked if she ever goes online anonymously, she replied: “I did at first. I thought, ‘Wow! I can be whoever I want to be. I can say whatever I want to say without being judged the way I would be if I said it.’ It was very liberating. Then I got bored with it.”

“We’re all the same…”
“As people, we all have insecurities and imperfections, and we’re all just struggling to get it right, to figure it out and find our way. Nobody is spared that. I don’t care who you are. Nobody is spared.”

Playing the dating game as a celebrity…
“Fame is hard on relationships. If two of you are in the fishbowl, forget it. If one is, it’s tough on a relationship. Men can sometimes feel a bit diminished. It’s nothing you do but how you’re perceived.”

The benefits of therapy…
“People still associate therapy with being crazy. But I think you’re crazy if you won’t consider going to get help for yourself—to learn the tools to deal with the problems in your life. Once people see what it is and what it’s not, they race to go back. They get the benefit. But it’s hard to get people to the first session because of fear.”

She’s just one of the gals…
Writer Emily Listfield, who interviewed Berry for PARADE, says: “I was pleasantly surprised by how un-divalike Halle was. We were due to meet at 8:30 a.m., and she showed up alone, on time and was overwhelmingly polite. She is absolutely beautiful with no makeup. She was open and curious about my life, as well as willing to talk about hers. When we got onto the subject of our love lives, she was a total girlfriend, laughing mischievously and giving advice!”

Behind the scenes at PARADE’s photo shoot with Halle Berry

Below, photographer Michael Larsen—who, with his wife, Tracy Talbert, shot Berry for PARADE—offers fun details from the photo session:

Where did the photo shoot take place?
Miranda Lofts in Manhattan.

What time was the shoot scheduled to start?
9 a.m.

How long did the shoot last?
Five hours.

What food was served?
Both breakfast and lunch were served. Breakfast included fresh fruit, muffins, pastries and yogurt. For lunch, salmon, tangerines, sandwiches and veggies were served.

What music was playing during the shoot?
“I had downloaded what I thought was [Berry's] favorite music, which was listed on her Web site,” Larsen says. “It turned out that information hadn’t been updated in a while. So when I proudly displayed all of her ‘favorite music’ on my iPod, she looked puzzled and asked where I got my information. She laughed and explained how those were here favorites about three years ago!” Shortly after, the photography staff downloaded some of Berry’s current music choices from iTunes, including Justin Timberlake and The Pussycat Dolls.

Who accompanied Berry to the shoot?
She arrived with her publicist.

Observations of Berry:
Michael Larsen says: “Halle was charming and professional, and everything went very smoothly. We had a lot of fun, took some great pictures and said goodbye.”

Adds Erin Nedell, PARADE associate photo editor, who attended the shoot: “Halle was quiet, demure and not demanding. She got in front of the camera and worked it without being coaxed too much. She really knew which poses to hit.”

Gosh! Does that man ever take a bad picture?

Yes, that Gabriel is a lovely hunk of man. I’ve seen a few of those photos before. Thanks a lot.

Andre, you have got to be kidding, right?. Those are mere children compared to Halle Berry. Gabriel is a refined, mature, hot-blooded, Canadian male with a deep, sexy voice. The three young ladies you mentioned may be nice, sweet, cute and all, but they don’t have the experience and wisdom of Halle Berry. Scarlett Johansson is not beautiful to me. She’s got fresh, pale skin that looks great in makeup. Keira is beautiful but a little childish. Natalie is pretty, but not in a womanly way. Too young. Why would Gabriel want those little girls?

The only other woman of Halle’s caliber is already taken–Angelina Jolie.

Those startlets wouldn’t be right for him. Scarlet is fug and looks a little downsy, while Keira is too androgynous and shaped like a gangly teenage boy, Natalie is pretty, but then again looks like she’s 12. Halle is perfect for him; shes gorgeous and has the ultimate feminine figure. Plus they’re both exotic looking and hott!!

A real man wants a real woman. I have an hourglass shape myself and I have always especially attracted masculine-type men. Yahoo!

That is one good looking couple. Who is that guy? He is smokin!!

I think Halle is a stunner! Imagine the beautiful child these two would have. It would be nice to see a little weight on her.

I sure wouldn’t be complaining if that guy is the one she’s practicing with.

I love the black leather jacket, the hair, and the beard. Sizzlin hot!!

I agree that Gabriel should be with a real woman and not a little girl. Any man who would prefer them to Halle is either a fool or just immature.

^^ i think its Fuego

At the beginning of her career, I remembered Halle always said how much her mother would tell her as a little girl that she was a black girl and should fully embrace that part of her mixed ethnicity as White people when seeing her would only see a Black person, and that it was ok to be Black and beautiful.

In those interviews, Halle added that thanks to her mother, she grew up with fewer growing pains when comparing to other mixed race children…So I guess her mother is pretty comfortable with the fact that Halle is seen as a Black woman who happens to have a Caucasian mother since she is the one who instilled that in her daughter in the first place and raised her as a Balck consious person.

that dude is so average
she is stunning

He’s with her for the money. It’s pretty obvious. He’s gorgeous, she’s fug. And she’s a mess.

I think Scarlett and Natalie are really mature women..specially Natalie..Keira is a really childish..but I think it’s the way she’ll always be…i like that.
I don’t know..I just don’t like Halle…i don’t like her as a actress and I don’t even think she’s beautiful. She’s always wearing the ugliest, non-stylish clothes, and her hair always looks like a wig.
And younger guys with older women look like gigolos to me..LOL

I tell you people….she allready is pregnant!!!

She is smiling way too often these days…..and she kinda glows, don´t you think?

Oh, but on another note…….I finally know who her boyfriend reminds me of- SAWYER from LOST.

Oh please….she’s not pregnant (at least yet) and the only money he will ever get is if she gives it to him i.e. for his restaurant or pays for something, etc. He ain’t going to get much more bling. She ain’t gonna change her mind and marry him or have his kid. When is she going to squeeze getting knocked up with her heavy work schedule?
If the make work cool, but I still give them 4-8 more months officially together—let’s where there at then before we make conclusions about the baby bump and her money.

#37 Andre — I don’t need to be conceited here. I was telling it like it is. I honestly believe that really manly men (I don’t wan’t to say macho) are usually attracted to feminine types. I said before that a Gabriel type probably wouldn’t go for a woman like himself — tall, skinny and lanky like most of the models in the business are. He probably prefers more meat on a female’s bones. Halle has a wonderful waistline curve. Most men (period) really appreciate a tiny waistline in a woman because it is the opposite of what they have. If you have an hourglass waistline, you should always flaunt it. I read an article that said that a small waist is one of the first things a man will notice on the female form. They love it.

I notice couples. A lot of times opposites attract. Really muscular men often like a soft or fuller-figured gal. A lot of bodybuilders are like that. Dark-skinned black men or women are often attracted to lighter complexions or Caucasians. Aggressive types are attracted to a passive partner. The list goes on and on.

Andre, it’s plain that you just don’t like Halle Berry, and that’s okay. I don’t see her as an old woman and I’ll bet you she looks better than any of those three starlets you listed are going to look when they turn 40. Those girls all seem too immature for a man like Gabriel Aubry. When I think of them, I think of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Nicole Richie, Britney Spears. Only thing is, your starlets seem to have more sense. Still lacking terribly in wisdom and experience, which is normal for youngsters. That’s no fun. Sorry, but I guess if you’re a teenager or older man who prefers young girls, they might be your dream girls.

He’s a keeper Halle. Please don’t go on Oprah discussing this relationship. Great looking pair.

#44 When is Halle going on Oprah? Is it today? I can’t miss that episode. Thanks.

Hey GH—Halle’s in Europe…not going to be on Oprah (or at least just yet)—#44 was being sarcastic because of her past visits when she was bashing EB when promoting Catwoman and the Nate Berkus thing a few years ago. Don’t know if she filmed anything for Oprah when she was in Chicago promoting the movie in the US.

Do know she will be on the following (you can check her Yahoo fan groups for more info):

4/9 Letterman
4/10 Good Morning America
Regis & Kelly
4/11 The View
The Daily Show
CBS Early Show TBD
Will let you know of any others

Besides this Sunday’s Parade, do know she will be in the May 2007 issues of Ebony, Esquire and Good Housekeeping Pet Issue (May/Insert). Here are all the print interviews that I have to date:

Here’s a list of other current or upcoming interviews Halle’s done to promote her new movie:

IN NEW YORK (March 2007)–not a bad article. Does have one of her supposed quotes when the record/CD hoax was going around.

GOOD HOUSEKEEPING Pet Feature (May/Inside)

http://magazines.ivillage.com/goodhousekeeping/

You’re welcome…enjoy the reading/viewing.

Of course, I would love to see Halle Berry have children, but we sometimes forget that many women who are in their mid to late thirties have trouble getting pregnant and have to seek help from a doctor.

In any case, if Halle doesn’t give birth to Gabriel’s child, she will adopt and I think that’s great.

JJ–understand what you meant about the Motherhood quote—still implied not definite. Was going by the link which led me to the preview…the full article should be online Tuesday if it’s not there sooner.

DAMN!!! Halle keep your hands off him! He’s mine!
I never have seen such a beautiful man!
