I think Ann Coulter said it best:

"Yes, at long last, the "glass ceiling" had been broken. Large-breasted, slightly cocoa women with idealized Caucasian features finally have a chance in Hollywood!"

[Rummyfan]

"I have to fight for almost every job I ever get ... the ones that I really want to do," said Berry in Cannes

Maybe that's because she's a lousy actress, her Oscar notwithstanding.

[wizardoz]

Does she think white actresses don't have to audition?

[martin_fierro]

We Shall Over-Come.

[MamaLucci]

My friend who went to high school with Ms. Berry claims that the actress NEVER identified herself with african americans back then. Berry was raised by her white mother.

[keithtoo]

Yup. Her mom who raised her, is white, and her black dad took off on her. But she identifies as a black woman. that doesn't make sense.

[A_perfect_lady]

This is what I love about Keanu. He never whines about being half-Asian.

[eleni121]

Halle was raised by her blue eyed blonde caucasian MOTHER...and desperately needs to be in the limelight.

[Kenny Bunkport]

With an Oscar in the bag, it is hard to imagine Halle Berry would have to fight too hard for acting roles.

It's not hard to imagine. She's not that good an actress.

[Khurkris]

Don't she kick this dog everytime she gets an award of some type?

Seems like I remember this coming from her several times in the last few years. ut its always after some award ceremony.
maybe its a reverse mind-warp thing...

"Yes, at long last, the "glass ceiling" had been broken. Large-breasted, slightly cocoa women with idealized Caucasian features finally have a chance in Hollywood!"

That's a great line! LOL.

I remember watching Halle interviewed on Arsenio Hall many years ago, and back then she said it was hard growing up biracial - not African-American. Her quotes above suggest the same thing - not fitting in, etc. - but the article didn't make that very clear.

I'm still laughing over that line... lol.

[Tamar1973]

While critics at Cannes this year have given the movie lukewarm reviews, Berry says the fans were the harshest of critics and, ultimately, the most important.

I think this is the only comment she made in the entire article I agree with.

[rockrr]

"Halle reveals racism struggle"

Shucks! And here I thought she was (finally) going to admit her bigotry ;'}

[FOG724]

"I am not complaining but there is a little thing called racism that this movie X-Men speaks about that, honestly, people like me still suffer from on some level.

Not in liberal Hollywood surely.

[Mamzelle]

Halle, you're being discriminated against.

Age discrimination--

[LWalk18]

She does this whenever she's plugging one of her movies- as if she is the only black actress in the world.

[Clemenza]

Yes, a Quadroon who was raised by her WHITE mother in a WHITE suburban community is oppressed.

Try being a Twa (pygmy) in certain portions of Africa, and you will see what REAL oppression is, Halle.

[KellyAdmirer]

I suppose I'm in the minority, but I don't find her particularly attractive. She has a weird-looking head and hair that does nothing for me. Her attitude stinks, obviously, and that counts for something, as in, no thanks, baby. Any millionaire that whines about racism loses my interest real fast in any event.

[MotleyGirl70]

"I am not complaining but there is a little thing called racism that this movie X-Men speaks about that, honestly, people like me still suffer from on some level.

Cry me a river!

She's one the most beautiful women in Hollywood worth millions...yeah, she really "suffers."

Halle, you've got the 'First African American Woman' Oscar win , now shut up--you twit.

[Mr. Mojo]

But the Hollywood A-lister says she has to audition for parts like every other actor.

Oh, so having to audition is now racism? ....as if white "A-listers" never have to do so?

Yet another self-absorbed victocrat.
