OlderHalle Berry is a Hollister Hottie
Halle Berry and her boyfriend, model Gabriel Aubry, go shopping at the Hollister store at Westfield Mall on Friday afternoon (May 8) in Century City, Calif.
Variety just did a piece on why stars can no longer insure box office profits.
“I went on a hike with a buyer the other day and asked (him) which actors he’d be willing to write a check for without knowing anything else about the project, and he only gave me one name: Will Smith,” says Brian O’Shea, executive VP of worldwide distribution at Odd Lot Intl. “There are still people out there, but the list is a lot smaller, and it really depends on the project. I think Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie can still greenlight a movie, along with George Clooney, Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Halle Berry, Johnny Depp and a few others. But it’s not the same as it used to be.”
10+ pictures inside of Hollister hottie Halle Berry…

Damn! They look GREAT!!!!
There you go again Brad and Angelina can still green light a movie hands down.
beautiful couple!
wow. she is hot!
um, that list is incorrect on so many levels. The only people who would rake in the dough are Will, Johnny, and unfortunately Brad and Angelina (not a fan).Everyone else including my beloved George Clooney have had several recent flops.
It’s ridiculous how he looks like he’s in a modeling shot in EVERY photo! haha. Gorgeous couple! :)
damn they’re a hot couple
DAMN hot couple!!

An honest person, that’s nice. Those are the only 4 true worldwide megastars these days that can still look at a project, agree to do it, and get paid big bucks, cause their films sell tickets. Everyone else is struggling to get films made and taking way smaller paychecks.
George is doing smaller films these days and for smaller paydays as well, and he is 48. RDJ is driven by his films not by him and Sherlock Holmes will tell whether he has the power to sell a film.
I think the next group of big bucks celebs will come from the Twiilight group. These 20 somethings have that shine on them.
This couple looks good together. Halle’s films are flopping however.
they’re an adorable couple with a ridiculously beautiful baby girl.
I like the hair cut and the boyfriend. Go Halle.
They too old to shop at Hollister.
Holy crap! Halle turned into a white chick! What a sell out! She basically did soft core porn to win her Oscar, in an almost identical role she played in a Spike Lee movie, except she was a crack addict and she actually thinks the black community is proud of her. Talk about a delusional celebrity. I wonder if she had any good accidents lately?
I love Halle and Gabe and Baby Nahla so much for haters like #14
Halle is gorgeous but is far from a bankable star when she’s the lead and not part of an ensemble cast like X-Men. Take Things We Lost In The fire, Perfect Strangers, Catwoman & Gothika as recent box office examples..
she has an amazing body!!!
whoa theyre such a beautiful couple. i like then lightyears better than brangelina. i’m so sick of them.
Time for him to make his paid appearance apparently! That just looks soooooo forced and fake!
Her hair is HIDEOUS, he looks like he does not want to be there, he is barely holding her hand. wow
WOW!!!!
they look AMAZING… individually and especially together.
Why so much negativity # 19 and #20 No one is putting a gun on Gabriel’s head to be with Halle. Get over it
hmmm interestingly Tom Cruise can still sell and so can Nicole Kidman… that surprised me. So did Halle Berry. I’m also surprised about Jolie and Pitt considering half their movies haven’t done soo well in the States here. But I guess they have big pull in the foreign markets…
Drew barrymore was kind of random though.
oh poor gabriel this must be sheer torture for him but thats what comes with this kind of territory,,,she really is a pest

ITA. Tom Cruise still rake money in the global market . but Clooney, Kidman, Berry are no longer that bankable anymore whether in the domestic or international market. Kidman and Berry was not even in the top 10 list of Forbes best paid actress list. both paycheck have gone down to less than 10 million /film.
I think Christian Bale, Channing Tatum, Rob Pattinson, Shea Lebouf are the younger crops with the potential of reaching the 20 million dollar status while for actresses, I could only see Anne Hathaway, and probably Katherine Hiegl .other’s are just bluff. Megan Fox? blah.
Well, I think it’s just a normal cycle, there’s always a younger generation catching up.
Man he looks like such a wuss!!
Does this guy had a regular job aside from part -timing as a model ?
Mann does Halle look HOTT for 42!
@F_U: Hey 19! Pardon the Steely Dan pun. I was thinking the same thing. Knew it was only a matter of time to do more damage control from what I gather the latest MIA rumors since they hadn’t been seen together for several weeks. They don’t look too thrilled to be together and it ain’t the pappis. So much for him helping her ‘mojo’.
@?: Halle’s paid sperm donor, her trained seal, her ***** etc. The list could go on.
@Jim: see boxofficmojo.com and Halle’s imdb.com message board. Catwoman, Things We Lost In The Fire, Perfect Stranger lost $120M dollars not good for studio execs and theater owners. A similar article in Variety from several/couple months ago listed Halle in the same list of getting $5M or less per picture if she/they’re lucky. Gothika kept her in the running and was made 6 years ago. The Industry/theater owners don’t go by past achievements sticking to the theory you’re only good as your last picture.
Let me look into my crystal ball,hmmm (sarcasm). I’ll give this arrangement until Fall unless Halle does really get pregnant in lieu of getting working on Nappily Ever After or one of her other projects, then I give them another year or possibly a year and half. They will be approaching the 4 year mark, 3-4 years is generally when Halle’s past relationships start souring. Let’s see if Madame Zelda’s right on this one?
The prodigal father returns in time for Halle’s Revlon/Komen Race For a Cure event this weekend and Mother’s Day. Ya’ll know Halle would be all over him if he wasn’t there Sunday!
Another set of photos of the happy couple shopping. Is it my imagination but in most photos of them together she always looks like she’s more into him that he is? Agree with the poster/s comment that he always looks like he’s modeling and forced.
They are cute, Gabriel is hot!! And so is Halle, she looks 30!
There’s a Westfield here in London. They also have a Hollister there.
Vanessa Hudgens has that same handbag :)
I think the point of the story is who can get a movie made not who’s boxoffice gold. Although Nicole Kidman, Halle Berry, George Clooney, etc are making flops they still have name value. Studios and producers still get excited if these people are attached to the movie. Why is it that if celebrities aren’t smiling or making out with their significant other people assume it’s because they are miserable? People don’t walk around with smiles on their faces for no reason and most couples don’t have makeout sessions in public. Even with cameras around celebrities probably don’t change their behavior.
They’re such a hot couple. Gabriel is hotness in person and Halle, oh my Gosh, she has a killer body! To me, they’re the Brangelina lol, I’d rather worship them =) They’re gorgeous and Nahla is the most beautiful baby I have ever seen <3
Forbes,Hollywood’s Most Valuable Actors, 2009
Here’s their list of “bankable” stars
Nicole is considered bankable (1 of only 4 actresses in the top 25), considering she has been and continues to be offered great roles, and continues to have the ability to get projects green-lit when her name is attached to a project.
she is after
Angelina Jolie,Julia Roberts,Meryl Streep and nicole kidman
http://www.forbes.com/lists/2009/58/star-currency-09_Star-Currency_Rank.html
All the critics and journalists love to call her “box office poison” and they think that she is overpaid and one of the least bankable actors. Now you have this Forbes list saying that she is the 22nd most bankable and people really want to work with her (some are almost drooling over working with her). And she is in talks for about 10 movies (rumored to be or not).
Where did you get your info ? you are absolutely wrong

“Tom Cruise still rake money in the global market ..”
samething with Kidman but with Little difference she is much biger than him when it comes to the global box office
Australia,Worldwide: $211,282,098
THE GOLDEN COMPASS ,Worldwide: $372,234,864
VALKYRIE, Worldwide: $198,107,372
from,boxofficemojo
but when it comes to the us box office Nicole is a Failure ,its ok with Tom i think but its not that much too.
Halle and Gabriel relationship is def set-up.Is it ironic that all suddely that gabe show up.But couple days before he was Asap.
# 40 do you ever hear of a job. he don’t have to be with her every 24hr of the day. you people on this site need to get a life and leave her lone.
They both look like they’re at a funeral.

What do you mean Jolie and Pitt’s movies don’t do well in the States??? What crack pipe are you smoking?
Kung Fu Panda, Wanted, Changeling — a trifecta of three totally different genres all made money and got award nominations.
Changeling had a limited release and still earned $35 million domestically and has made a profit when you add in worldwide money. It was a serious film not expected to break box office records. Wanted opened #2, earned 60% more than its cost domestically, with $134 million in US, $341 million total. Enough said. Sequel in the works if Jolie will come back and play Fox again.
Kung Fu Panda opened #1, earned 50% more than its cost domestically with $215 million, worldwide is $630 million. Sequel being discussed.
Benjamin Button, Burn After Reading - made tons of money, two different kinds of movies entirely, plus nominations.
Button earned $127 million domestically, and has earned double its production cost before DVD sales. It was #3 its opening weekend!
Burn After Reading earned more than double its production cost domestically with $60 million, and has earned $157 million worldwide.
If these are flops, I don’t know what you’re expecting….. Just another clueless hater throwing your bile around.
Star,
Get over it yourself, this is a gossip site message board not a fan site. If you want things ‘Kumbiya’ visit one of their fan club sites.
1). Heather’s comment is quite valid as well as the other posters. The last known photograph of them together was the 3.28.09 on newscom.com or some other photo storage site.
2). He has his photoshoot w/Aygnes weeks ago while TMZ has a field day with Halle looking disheveled taking Nahla to the doctor’s office with a friend or one of her assistants.
3). A week prior she’s seen here with her photographer pal who took the photos for the Esquire cover and Halle perfume stills. 4.5.09
4). Halle’s solo at her Charity auction with the Golf Tourney canceled because Aubry was working and the country club was doing ‘grounds work’. She’s suddenly at one of the film premieres on the night of her canceled golf tourney.
5). A few days later she’s solo or with her mother at the “The Soloist” and “Wolverine” premieres.
6). During this 5-6 week per period, Halle’s been pimping her weekly photos of Nahla (as cute as she is) for all of us to see solo, her assistants and body guards.
7). Halle has her hissy fit last weekend with her body guard and assistant.
8). She or they are a no-show for Calvin Klein at Monday’s Met Costume Institute Ball.
9). CBB and other blogs announce that Halle’s taking Nahla out at Gabriel’s assistance when he hates the paps and doesn’t like taking her out much in the public. Halle making it sound that Gabriel says that she’s home too much -bs when we usually seem them 1-2x/week here and elsewhere on the ‘Net.
10). He’s always not present when Halle has a crisis with Nahla and is known to go into hiding. Can guarantee you he wasn’t working on that photo shoot or other work all that time or we’d have seen the pictures. The dude really doesn’t work that much. He has a couple of fashion shows, photo shoots, CK appearances a year. Don’t know if he’s trying to still re-open his restaurant in New York or still trying to sell that music CD he was trying to pimp last year.
Nor do I think he was home watching Nahla when Halle’s been seen solo doing her paps prick tease or at A-List functions when one of the nannies or her mother is.
11). Throughout their 3+ year relationship, he always suddenly appears any time shortly after there is a rumor that he is missing, they’ve broken up, or Halle has a crisis.
So, I think Heather’s and the others comments are quite valid. I’m out of here…see ya Halle & Gabe loser fans.
Yeah CATE.
Why the grim faces?????
They always look very stuck up. If I had a good looking man like that and a sexy looking woman on my arm, I would be smiling for days.
They look great physically but something is off mentally.
Just my opinion.
AND I AM NOT A HATER!!!!!!!!!!! JUST AN OPINION!
12). When they’re photographed together candidly or at an event he’s generally looking at the camera, for the paps and usually not that interested in her and when photographed by himself or work related photo, he’s usually happy.
13). He generally likes to be behind the scenes when with Halle at a premiere or A-List event generally hates it when he has to do the Red Carpet with her usually there at the after party or what ever. If he’s there it is mentioned whether he is photographed or not. Even at her Essence Award Luncheon, he was seen in the crowd pictures.
they are hot, damn it.
Why they don’t bring Nahla with them and have a family day out?
I want to see Gab snarl at the paps to protect little Nahla.
Oh well, maybe next time.
Impressive 4star are u in the computer 24/7 do you even have a job just saying
TY yes I do, work at home for as a computer geek who gets paid to post crappy comments for a living. No just kidding I’m in high school and like doing celebrity debunking as a weird hobby. Post on other sites on other celebs during my free time.
Is Halle really that stupid to think her bf makes an appearance to show when he does regardless of what’s really going on between them that all of us are going to believe all’s well at HalleGabrielville?
4star @ 05/09/2009 at 10:33 am
The last known photograph of them together was the 3.28.09
*************************************************************************************
Which proves what?
If daily or weekly photographs of a couple together are necessary to prove they are still together, then 99% of the couples in Hollywood are in trouble.
# 39 to lulu @ 05/09/2009 at 7:42 am
when it comes to the us box office Nicole is a Failure
***************************************************************************************
The studios count the bottom line, and the foreign box office is where the money is. That’s why they spend millions of dollars promoting their films overseas.
4star you know so much about how she run her life . do you live with her that you know why she wasn’t at the gala. you read newpaper and internet saying that a celebrity would be at a function but is it true are they just say that to get more cover of the event. it just an opinion like the rest on this site. so you can kiss my a**. 4star and get a real job.

That Forbes list is interesting. The Jennifer Aniston fans like to deride Angelina Jolie as box office poison, but she’s sharing the #2 spot with Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp and Leonardo DiCaprio, while Aniston is buried down at #55 along with Halle Berry and Hugh Grant.
isn’t she abit too old for hollister?
I don’t think Halle’s turned into a white chick just because she wears hollister, anyone can wear hollister and in any case it looks really good on her and she is half white so what’s the deal lol…Fake or real, this couple looks really good! She has an amazing body and hes really handsome!
Uh I know a lot of black people that shop at hollister. & they wear dunks and jordans and listen to drake and lil wayne and the dream and all of that.
Wow, they are a HOT couple. I love Halle’s hair.
Why are people talking about Brangelina?? This post has NOTHING to do with them.
that haircut…
Man, they are a hot couple. I can’t wait until they make some more babies!!! I love her hair.
I’ve always thought these two are an odd couple. They just don’t look connected somehow. I’m not puttting money on the rel’ship ending any time soon though. Gab though he has his own income can live much higher off the hog when coupled with her. I think, too, because he’s so much younger, and not an intellectual heavyweight, she has more control over him that her previous men. All my gay friends say their gaydar goes off when they see/hear him. Nothing wrong with having a child with a gay man, especially one so awesome looking as he is. Afterall, she was on Oprah years back, saying she’d love to reproduce with Nate Berkus. Very telling. I never bought their facade for a moment. I think they probably have a really close friendship as opposed to a romance.
Thank You Pandora, my gay friends say the same exact thing (not wishful thinking mode). Old news, folks have been saying that Aubry s ince he and Halle hooked up years ago.
Star who made you Prez of the Halle-Gabriel fan club on Just Jared? You are worse than those you accuse. They could actually be high schoolers or someone just trying to yank your chain.
Why let these folks bother you? None of this crap on the internet should be taken seriously, I come to JJ for the laughs.
star me thinks UR the same poster who posts under several aliases her and other boards always posting the same type of thing in her/their posts when others make comments on your fantasy couple. Think UR the one who needs to STFU
I think that she was so much better with Eric Benet, she seemed happy although they had problems. They looked so good together. I’ve since read interviews and things from him and he seems like he was trying to work on his issues. I have to believe that Halle played a role in this as well. It’s no coincidence that she can’t keep a man but, Eric has been in a long term relationship with the same woman for years now. I honestly think the problem is with her if you ask me! She seems like a b!tch but tries to portray herself as sweet. She looks like she beats Gabriel’s @ss! Looks like she’s going to smack him in the head any minute!

Jill can you write a post without mentioning Anistun - this thead is not about her.
4star, you need to stop taken s**T series.
i agree with what the person said
but not really the list, nicole kidman…not really
tom cruise…i guess but idk about making any movie a hit
and halle berry hasnt been in a good movie in a while so i wouldnt classify her, altho she is a pretty good actress
cute outfit, but i hate the short hair…
#64 She is the same poster constantly jumping on here saying the same thing over and over. She’s posting under a different name and agreeing with herself.
As far as movies go, certain stars can only sell in certain genres. Angelina can sell a movie so long as she marketed as an action hero. Whenever she moves beyond that, her movies flop. Her earlier movies were bombs like Original Sin and Pushing Tin. Not blockbusters. And the Changeling dropped from the top ten after 2 weeks. Nicole Kidman is a better and far more versitile actress. She never plays it safe and sometimes she suffers for it. Halle has the same problem. She can’t be categorized as genre specific because her movie rolls are all over the place.
Kidman:
The Golden Compass: 372 millions dollars
Australia: 211 millions dollars
The Interpreter: 160 millions dollars
Bewitched: 130 millions dollars
The Stepford Wives: 100 millions dollars
The Others: 172 millions dollars
@’lena120′ and ‘you speak the truth’
I think I will take the response from a movie exec on who they would put their money on over anonymous commenters. Bottom line is, you cant really gaurentee a box office hit these days no matter who the star is. I think this exec picked those names based on the variety of skills they bring to the table. Will Smith, Johnny Depp and Tom Cruise have been known for the major box office movies (although Tom hasn’t participated in one since “War of the Worlds”)…people like George Clooney, Halle Berry and Nicole Kidman try to participate in ALL types of different roles regardless of the cost of the film and so do Brad Pitt and Angelina. Add to the fact that Halle Berry is the #1 black actress and there you go. They could have also thrown a few more names in there like Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. Other then that, thats a pretty decent list. Just because some of the stars on that list have had a few flops means nothing, considering that everyone has had some every now and then, and all the stars that were mentioned are all ver established stars. As far as “Twighlight”, that is a teeny bopper film, alot of those people in that film (Rob Pattison and even now the girl that plays Bella) are now typed cast and are no way the type of stars to pull in a huge draw headling a film. The reason why the “Twighlight film” did so great is because it already had a strong following from the books…not because of the cast. They could have casted just about anyone in that and gotten the same results.
@lulu
Halle Berry made $10 million for “Perfect Strangers” her last movie was “Things we lost in the fire” which was a small budget film and I wouldn’t expect her to ask for more money then what the cost of the movie cost to make…its no different then when Angelina Jolie only takes $8 million for that movie “Beowolf” because it was quick to shoot. Actors demand different amounts of money based on the type of movie…which is why there is a different actress/actor almost every year at the top of those lists. Its not rocket science. Halle made $14 million for cat woman and the X-Men movies, bigger budget films, bigger paychecks. I dont see actresses like Ann Hatheway (her last movie floped as well) or Katherine Hiegl (who tends to get on a lot of peoples nerves) getting $20 million dollar paychecks. It takes a certain type of star to demand that type of money.
Also, people kill me on here talking about these peoples relationship. Halle and her boyfriend have been together for years now…if they didn’t want to be together, they wouldn’t be together. They dont have to fake anything. How stupid is that? Only pathetic individuals would come up with that logic. Someone on here said she seemed happier with Eric Benet? Really? She seemed happier with a man that cheated on her with 20 different women to you? Give us all a break already. Did it ever occur to any of you that Halle and Gabe may not be smiling because they are being stalked by the cameras? Why would they be walking down the street smiling from ear to ear looking like two lunatics? Im over this…worry about your own relationships (if you even have one) and leave them alone.
Also I co-sign #69 ‘luciana’ comment…thank you for bringing some commen sense to this comment section when it comes to movie stars and how this exec came up with this group of names he would still write a check for. Its just commen sense…different stars bring different qualities to films, which is why he chose this variety of actors.
My goodness, I think I am just going to start just looking at the pictures on these blog sites and skip right over the comment sections. Because the lack of commen sens and downright patheticness of some of the people that comment is overwhelming. And its sad that some people in the world are so miserable that all they have to do is sit around and wish failure on someones relationship. My god, get lives! SMH
Hollister.. really?? I haven’t shopped there since I was out of high school (actually, before that) because the clothes remind me of every preteen in America.
OMG…please someone stop me from fanning myself –SO Fing HOt
4Star. I want to say that I’m sorry about my comment yesterday.I got you name and star name mixed up.
#14 you are so right on! She is a bad actress. She only won an oscar because they wanted to give it to a black woman. Lots of other great black actresses deserved it far more then she did. Her man is so hot! She always looks pissed off when with him. I bet she nags him to death!
No problem, I knew who you were directing it to. Thanks for your note.
the guy is just very geogeous…hope their relationship will last long….
Absolutely love photo #1 of Aubry missing reaching for Halle’s hand. Definitely an arrangement and absolutely another damage control photo. Halle stop the madness!
Halle shopping at Hollister? hahahha.
@F_U: THANK YOU, WE ALL KNOW THAT WHAT IS THE TRUTH, PAID BOYTOY, HE TO ME IS SLOW AND MAYBE GAY. HE IS A LITTLE OFF.
