Halle Berry: Stop Asking About My Pregnancy!

Halle Berry: Stop Asking About My Pregnancy!

Pretty parents-to-be Halle Berry and model Gabriel Aubrey arrive at LAX airport after a flight from New York City on Saturday. (Ms. Berry is 4+ months pregnant.)

Halle recently sat for a quick Q&A at a recent press stop to promote Things We Lost in the Fire:

Why do chicks find Benicio [Del Toro] so sexy? He’s not the most handsome dude around. He’s mysterious. You don’t quite know who he is, no matter how long you know him. You get a feeling you’ll never know him. I think women respond to that. And he’s talented. If someone is talented, I don’t care what they look like, that’s sexy.

Ever wish you’d never become an actor and could just live quietly? I’ve thought that when people ask me personal questions. It’s because I’m in a movie they didn’t like and there’s nothing else to talk about. But it’s frustrating this time, because it’s a movie I’m really proud of. Maybe there will be a reason [one day], but it’s baffling me now.

And finally, after being asked about her pregnancy for the upeenth time, Halle put her belly down and said, “It’s disheartening to have every question be about my pregnancy. I’m getting most asked not about the film.”

She’s actually thinks anyone cares about her pregnancy? She clearly got knocked up by that little boy just to promote the movie.

quiet no more @ 10/14/2007 at 5:30 pm

stop judging from pics,your comment don`t make any sense.so If they smile and kiss and hug each other in fron of camera that shows you they are happy couple,STFU that calls PR.

oh boy, WTF is your problem black woman and regina?

she kind of opened the media to it by announcing her pregnancy. its sad cause the movie looks really good.

When she was on Letterman, she had a 10 minute interview and they only talked about her new movie for about 2 minutes, which is pathetic and proves again, why she’s promoting her baby more than her movie. I mean, the man who knocked her up can’t even speak proper English.

oh please halle @ 10/14/2007 at 5:48 pm

she needs to suck it up as it comes with the territory.

what is your problem with her man?she can talk with him and understand him,so don`t worry about them.

OMFG can`t you wish one woman in this situation best without criticizing her for everything.Are you human with human feeling?this woman will give birth to innocent kid in afew month,just wish her and her BF best If you are human.

It’s hard for me to feel sorry for someone who is raking in money by the millions. She is famous, so people are gonna talk. Anyways, Im happy for her and her boyfriend. He is hot.

I really like Halle but she can’t act. There was only one movie I thought she squeak by in, and that was Gothica, and even that wasn’t so great. I just took Perfect Stranger back to the video store, it was a snorefest. Even when she starred in Xmen, I was glad she didn’t speak much. Monster’s Ball was awful and I thought she degraded herself, the se x scene was nasty,not appealing.

I recently saw old tv reruns of Knotslanding, that old tv night soap show she was in, she did ok in that. That was before she had the nose job and lost weight. Acting lessons would help, she has potetial, I like her.

I loved Monster’s Ball. It was good. I didn’t find it at all degrading and still don’t get why some people were so offended by the sex scene.

She acted her best in that role honestly, and I only noticed it when I re watched the film.

Perfect Stranger was terrible! Lord, it was awful. Gothika I didn’t watch, not my style of movie. But Perfect Stranger, she overacted every scene.

WELL SHE SHOULD STOP HAVING INTERVIEWS ABOUT IT!

She shouldn’t of said sh*t in the 1st place! She wanted sympathy, NOW SHE HAS IT!

IF she wasn
t a actress what the F*CK else would she be?

Halle’s man?
Dude ride that gravy train

Halle Lee Daniels got you that oscar the producer of MOnster ball pls aknowledge that he did …
also why did you leave the scene after you ran over that guy ? scandel she killed someone but got off
how is this fair?

THAT MODEL DUDE WILL LEAVE YOU HALLE
YOUR ALSO A MURDERER
HONESTLY
HOW MANY PEOPLE HERE HAVE KILLED SOMEONE LEFT THE SCENE AND GOT OFF ON IT?

Oh I 4got I liked her in Boomerang & the Wedding was ok. Except for the sex scene in Monster’s Ball, was’nt as bad, but no seconds for me.

ITA lulu29 with your Perfect Stranger comment.

I still stand by it being a snorefest. Took awhile to finish watching it, lots of breaks.

aging black woman with major issues

SHE LOOKS REALLY PRETTTY & HER GUY IS PRETTY HOT.

I have seen her on a few talk shows and she is the one talking about
her pregnancy and telling a little more than anyone cares to know.

only oprah can inquire about the pregnancy.

SHE IS SOOOO F*ING BORING!!!!

SHE’S THE ONE THAT STARTED TO TALK ABOUT HER PRGNANCY…SHE DOES THE SAME ALL THE TIME…

SHE TALKS TOO MUCH AND THEN WHEN EVERYBODY ASKS HER ABOUT THE STUFF SHE SAYS…SHE MAKES HERSELF TOO IMPORTANT TOO ANSWER….SHE WAS ON OPRAH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD…..FREAKING OPRAH!!!!

I’m glad J.Lo never commented on it. She might have also been aware that people will only ask about the details of her pregnancy and not ask about her album and tour.

Bad pr move Halle @ 10/14/2007 at 8:51 pm

Another bad pr move with less than a week before your movie is out. Guess you haven’t learned anything from your radio faux pas years ago in Chicago when you were in the greenroom without realizing you were on the air when you made an asinine comment about you thought doing radio interviews was stupid (using more foul language). Still a bad move about not talking about being pregnant with diabetes in ANY of these interviews. Is NO COMMENT not in your vocabulary, you’ve been around long enough in the movie biz to know this.

Am in agreement with most of the posters. It’s great your pregnant. You’re the one who started this whole thing making comments in every interview bragging about the daily and weekly pregnancy updates. If you don’t want to answer the question–say no comment. We have been bombarded practically on a daily basis with the latest updates of her or Aubry saying stuff, them shopping for baby stuff, the death threat letter reports and beefing up security only to be seen last week going solo when you were shopping or apartment hunting or something in NYC, etc.

Thought you weren’t going to give any more interviews. Seems you’ve been the only one talking and talking…like the Everyready Bunny. Major TMI.

As for the pix, no neither look too thrilled to see the pappis, maybe a long bumpy flight. Don’t want to read too much into the photos.

PRETTY-on-the-outside @ 10/14/2007 at 9:31 pm

Boohooo.GET OVER IT!!!!she went bragging to the whole world like she is the first woman to ever get pregnant on earth.She needs to pray for her ******* child and why she’s acting like it’s okay to have kids out of wed lock.and folks, you don’t know how this baby is gonna turn out{how it’s gonna look} . i’m sure it’s going to be a regular pale skinned baby with two parents with money. just like shiloh.i understand she’s exited, but God giveth abnd he taketh away, so she should stop bragging.

I would like to know how Halle’s getting on with her French-Canadian in-laws, bcoz they are forever whining about their identity being peril and still fussin over their territory. Now Gabriel has permanent residence in U.S, has knocked up an African-American and the grandkids will end up speaking English! How’s that for Quebec nationalists!

don't buy the bs about halle l @ 10/14/2007 at 10:03 pm

Hey Koko,

Don’t know what his folks reaction is but the latest BS is Halle’s learning French.

SHe is very confused about how to address her life in general…not unfahtomable.

gabriel seems like an airhead anyway. She needs sound afvice on how to handle stuff publicly bc it sounds so lame nowadays

Halle is such an idiot. Of course people are going to ask about her pregnancy–there are worse things in the world. She should be glad they don’t ask her about her pitifully bad acting.

Spay / Neuter @ 10/14/2007 at 11:53 pm

Come on ppl ! I’m sure Halle is raging hormones and at least she’s not playing the maybe I am but Maybe I’m not ! guessing game , besides can’t they ask about her freaking movie ? SHEESH ! It’s no wonder why reality t.v is so popular -

A Certain Smile @ 10/15/2007 at 12:05 am

See the haters are out in force and the liars. The car accident no one was killed. In fact, Halle had a head injury that was more severe than the woman who was in the other car. She plead no contest tp leaving the scene of an accident and the other woman was paid for her car and minor bruises. Stop lying, she did not kill any one.
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. all she did was annouce her pregnancy. christina and J Lo have not and they are criticized for not doing so. Now Halle is criticized for doing so. these people can’t win no matter what they do.
Gabriel speaks English very well. How well do you speak any other labguage? they have been together for over 2 years. He is not a boy he is a grown man. Never knew a man to be almost 32 years old to beconsidered a boy. He also is successful and makes his own money.
His father was the first one he told he was in love. His father spoke about it to the Canadian media so he is probably not as racist as people like most of you on this blog.

Halle looks beutiful as usual. The press is for the movie so maybe just maybe she would like some of the questions at least to be about the movie.

Aubry doesn’t speak English well, he speaks with an accent. Have seen the TV clips. They will be together 2 years next month. He was in foster homes. How reliable can his father be? He also announced it before their relationship was made official. It was in the same article that his manager was bragging about Aubry’s small paultry salary at the time being $25/27K-$30/$35K per photo shoot and clammed up when he was asked if Aubry was using Halle for his personal gain.

You are right Halle didn’t kill anyone. She did have 2 hit and runs. And did have to have stitches from her head injury from when she was drunk which Oprah and Warren Beatty got the charges reduced and Oprah made her work off her debt when she did that TV movie w/Michael Ealy.

love Halle,and if u were asked a million questions about something, i bet you’d get tired of it too!!!

Mediterranean @ 10/15/2007 at 3:21 am

Dear Halle, then you should stop talking about it! It’s you who has started, right?

She is much older and too ugly for that guy……

Mediterranean @ 10/15/2007 at 4:55 am

The reason she has been with this guy might be that they can’t communicate well. OK, it’s enough sarcaism.

At the end, everybody got what they want, she got the baby and knows the father, he got the fame.

ROFLMAO !!!!

People are so judgemental of Ms Berry. Good grief. She sure brings out the ulgy and hatred in people.

nettiesmith @ 10/15/2007 at 10:21 am

I am so sick of halle berry. all she does is complain. she complained about being the only african american at school, she complained about failed marriages (I think she was the problem) and now this. get over yourself.

If you are sick of her.. then don’t watch her. That’s not hard.

Hypocrite @ 10/15/2007 at 1:30 pm

Oh get over yourself already what a hypocrite ***** you are the one who were who is and still talking about it ! she is a pretentious ho and act like a diva with her employed one of theme talked about how she was not treat theme well .

totally agree @ 10/15/2007 at 2:36 pm

What a waste. She brought it up first and it should be fair game since she has made it such an issue since her divorce from Benet of sooooooooo much wanting a child. Now, all of a sudden, now that she is going to have one whether by a facade or not, she suddenly doesn’t want to talk about it. Halle when are you finally going to grow up. If anything her pregnancy updates will hurt her movie not help it. Which is too bad bc the script isn’t too bad and neither is the director. Halle’s character doesn’t really come alive until the end of the movie. Halle you really need this movie to do well if not your career is definitely over. If so, Gabby better be looking for another sugarmomma to mooch off of.

wannabe PR agent @ 10/15/2007 at 3:22 pm

The reason ppl want to know about the pregnancy is because there is nothing else that seems relevant about you Halle. Sure you’re doing a movie but what else is there about you that is interesting. Your comment, just like Mr. Pitt, concerning marriage is laughable. What you really are saying is that you don’t have the ability to commit to one person for the rest of your life. That, my dear, is not an ingredient for a superstar. For example, Michael Jackson, with all of his weirdness, was a superstar, an icon, until his image suffered. It wasn’t necessarily his looks, it was the continuous allegations, his inability to communicate in public, his ignorance of business, his alienation from his people, and his refusal to recognize that these issues would hurt him in the long run. Your marriage to David Justice was based on Lust. It was one of those “Burger King” marriages where unless you can “have it your way, you get out of it”! Your marriage to Eric was the same. He was never a SEX addict. He wanted to help you save your career. In any event, Halle Berry is irrelevant. She should be calling Tyler Perry about now. It’s amazing how famous African Americans only want to embrace that fact when they are not as popular as they once were. In my little wannabe agent opinion, she should answer the pregnancy questions that she doesn’t want to answer by saying ” I appreciate your concern, everything is well at this time. Now if you don’t mind, why don’t we let the rest of this interview center on the movie” Thanks- Stars are still made. I would love to have the chance to turn Jessica Simpson’s career around. I would do it for free just to prove I could.

dianad1968 @ 10/15/2007 at 3:24 pm

this is halle berry MO. she is one of the most hypocritical celebrities ever. when both of her marriages ended, she had an agreement with both ex-husbands that everything will be done privately. and then she did a horrible interview in a magazine about the first husband, david justice, i remember david saying he felt so betrayed, because no matter if he was a scumbag, they had an agreement. then she went on her friend oprah’s show and called her second husband eric a sex addict.
she does these things all the time. i have never liked her. gabriel better not piss her off.

Halle is likeable, but then you really think about it and realize that she is also in my opinion is somewhat of a sociopath.

Gabriel Aubry Lover @ 10/15/2007 at 7:04 pm

I guess all of you negative posters are perfect right

nothing new @ 10/15/2007 at 7:17 pm

Nothing new. She does this kind of thing all the time. Let’s hope it won’t backfire on her like when she tried to back paddle on the Parade magazine snafu and hurt her movie.

remember the teeth/highschool @ 10/15/2007 at 7:27 pm

Any of you all remember the re-occurring chattering teeth dream where she can’t catch them and she is stuck in high school like Groundhog’s Day saying regarding the teeth part of her dream is that she was told she isn’t heard. The high school thing has to do with her fear of not wanting to grow up. Halle it isn’t that you aren’t heard or even seen. It’s that you are heard/seen too much. So much for discretion.

RE: her sociopathic tendencies–yes, she does have them as well as characteristics for ADHD, substance abuse disorder, dissociative identity disorder, adult child of an alcoholic, borderline personality disorder, co-dependent, battered woman syndrome, bi-polar disorder and a few others, but that doesn’t necessarily mean she has the disorder or any of them.

if you think about it? @ 10/15/2007 at 7:40 pm

Halle’s never on a talk show just to hang out with the hosts like a lot of stars do, only when she has a movie coming out and/or to talk about her personal life because she isn’t cool or has any really substance. There several ways as a couple folks suggested how to handle the P question.

Which I think is funny that you are getting tired of it after one month of making your announcement and the many months/year-years of making the blogs and photographers (which you probably paid) guess as well as being seen buying maternity clothes right after your last movie came out–this was all planned.

So, be a decent human being and for once own up to it. It’s not the reporters fault for asking the question/s it’s your’s and only your’s for giving them just cause. Quit the blame game.

She does need to suck it up. i mean she did announce her pregnancy and pregnancy is so wonderful and much more important than any movie. women, especially single women wanna hear about it.

HalleGabriel @ 10/15/2007 at 9:14 pm

Concerning Gabriel, I’m not sure he grew up in foster homes as has been said, just passed around a lot between relatives. Also, whatever Gabriel Aubry’s salary is, how can it be considered paltry? What is your daily salary that you can sneer at his, not so? As for his not speaking good english, If it is understandable, then it does not matter if he has a strong accent. English is not the only language in the world. He speaks at least three languages that I know of. How many languages do those criticising his english speak?

HalleGabriel @ 10/15/2007 at 9:22 pm

Let me say something else; in another recent thread concerning Halle, someone said that Eric Benet made more money than Gabriel, but i doubt that because he clearly wasn’t satisfied with his money, since he sued Halle for alimony. He is a ‘moocher.’ Where is everyone’s righteous anger over that? Eric Benet is the one who probably got involved with Halle because of her fame and money, not Gabriel. Get it right. And Eric Benet called himself a sex addict and even joined a group to get it help. He only denied it later when the press considered him a loser because of it, and he seems like an even bigger loser now. If you don’t like Halle being with Gabriel I suppose that’s your choice, but you should no what you are talking about first! Stupic, racist haters.

damn i just realized how obvious it is that she got a nose job from that pic of her profile. the one where she’s alone.

To HalleGabriel: Racist Haters???!!! What is your problem?!!! Stop halucinating and see racism where there is no racism. Primitive!

Halle Gabriel @ 10/16/2007 at 2:32 pm

Oh puh-leeze!! Why else are you so critical of Gabriel and Halle, except that he is white? I know that most if not all of you saying the ignorant comments about Gabriel are black and that you resent Halle’s relationship with a white man, her obvious love for him and her bearing his child. Don’t pretend any different. I think that Halle is headed toward a new, better place in life and that Gabriel is a harbinger of that. She is on the way to becoming a true power broker in hollywood, and Gabriel is a perfect consort. Its hard to imagine David Justice, Eric Benet, Michael Ealy, or most of those other men many of you would want her to be with being the asset that Gabriel will be. I truly believe that they were meant to meet and fall in love.

Halle Gabriel @ 10/16/2007 at 2:37 pm

Regarding the idea of her having a nose job; I really don’t think so. I’ve seen several pics of her recently from the side and her nose looks the same. Any change is simply do to the aging process.

dianad1968 @ 10/16/2007 at 5:48 pm

HalleGabriel : 10/15/2007 at 9:22 pm

in reference to your “stupid racist haters” remark, i am a black woman, and i do not care for Halle. I think she is very pretentious and superficial and never accepts blame for anything going on in her life. it’s always someone else’s fault. and about eric benet admitting to being a sex addict, what else was he supposed to say when halle and her mother took him on oprah and accused him infront of millions. i was so embarrassed for him, and really believe he was thinking about his daughter, and would have done or said anything to ensure a stable environment for her. i am not saying he was a prince, but i absolutely abhor women who cannot accept some responsibility for problems in a relationship.

HalleGabriel @ 10/17/2007 at 12:10 pm

Did I not say that I know perfectly well that most of the people saying hateful things about Queen Halle and her consort are black? That they resent her relationship with a white man? I would think that admitting to being a sex addict is not a way of creating a stable home environment for a child. He tried to ensure a stable home environment for India by marrying Halle for her money and collecting alimony from Halle and using her affection for India in order to do it. He greatly wronged Halle. Yes, people should own up to their actions, but how is Eric’s sex addiction, chronic cheating, whatever, Halle’s fault?

dianad1968 @ 10/17/2007 at 3:34 pm

so i suppose if you are black you are bound and honored to like another black person no matter what.i am sorry, i did not get that memo. again, halle comes across as pretentious, my observation. if you think going on oprah and putting your husband on stage to accuse him of sex addiction is ok, then more power to you and halle.

SSDD…Eric didn’t marry Halle for her money. He doesn’t get alimony and claims to never have asked her for a dime despite claims on http://www.smokinggun.com. Halle wanted him to be a house-hubby so she can’t ***** about him not working. He’s not a sex addict he admitted saying that to save his marriage. If every man who cheated on his girlfriend, partner, spouse regardless of the number of times–we’d have a helluva lot of sex addicts in the US & World. Sorry but no offense.

Just because someone may not agree with your opinion and if you want to call them a hater that’s your choice. But assuming they are racist because Halle is Black/Bi-Racial is total ******* bullshit and quite childishly immature on your part. I view some of those comments as people getting real. Are there some actual racists on these threads and actual haters sure. Do they probably need get a life–subject to opinion. There’s nothing wrong with you defending Halle but get your facts correct. Again, no offense.

Re: Aubry’s salary not including his $2M Calvin Klein deal over x number of years or whatever the terms are. Making $27-$47K for a photo shoot is considered small salary sorry. Yes, I do make more than that per year and have more invested. His speech, he talks or mumbles with an accent. Yes, he can speak English fairly well but with an accent. You may want to listen to him again when he speaks.

Don’t give a flying **** that he’s White. It is what it is. Please. Halle won’t be a power broker in Hollywood if she can’t get her projects off the ground based on her pictures not doing well. It won’t matter who she is with. Gabriel actually could be very good for her and may be her perfect match.

Her new movie I am surprised (haven’t seen it yet)that it isn’t doing well despite hers and Benico’s supposedly riveting performances. Great script and a very innovative director. People in Hollywood unfortunately not all of them take her seriously regardless of how gorgeous she is, on the A-List, queen of the red carpet, all of her awards,moxie or savvy,,gutsy in role choices she may be,etc.

Is Hollywood Racist? Sure to some degree. But it isn’t all them. The woman needs to get a new staff, possibly take acting lessons not having an acting coach, do more for the entertainment community. Also, what’s the bs about her acting for 20 years( unless she’s including her start in modeling). Living Dolls was 1989 not 1987. Not hating just making an observation.

While I don’t blame her for not liking to talk about her pregnancy in public regardless of it apparency versus in private which she stated on Tavis and views it being a trade off and how everytime she has a movie coming out it seems that it coincides what’s going on in her personal life. Call it what it is. She has been trying to talk more about the movie than her personal life.

Enough with my soapbox, need to get back to work. Yes, I am successfully employed at home.

HalleGabriel @ 10/25/2007 at 7:25 pm

Yeah right, all of that was so stupid and contradictory. You do not even know what you are talking about. If you are trying to be spiteful about my posts, be direct like a real woman or man and not a coward. Gabriel is succesful and affluent, Halle is on her way to becoming a power broker, and Eric Benet will always be a loser. Many blacks are indeed racist. What’s wrong with speaking a language with a noticeable accent from another language? People often find that sexy if they can understand what the person is saying. Please get a life you pathetic *****. And everything I have said about Gabriel, Halle and Eric is the truth, Eric Benet isn’t enough of a man to admit that, and you are too much of a black racist arsehole to see that. Successfully employed at home? Doing what? Licking stamps? Ha.

HalleGabriel—I will pray for your happiness and have compassion for those who don’t agree with you. #60 is right you see racism where there is none. May God be with you.
