I have an idea that'll make Halle happy,and is PC at the same time.Why don't the Oscars create a catagory for best African American female actress?

[popdonnelly]

Eric cheated on her with a dozen other women? He must be blind.

[LauraleeBraswell]

Halle Berry doesn't even look Black. She has got to be kidding.

[LadyPilgrim]

Maybe she ought to become a Republican and run for office. ;-)

[ThisLittleLightofMine]

I highly doubt that Halle Berry has encountered racism, after all she is also a white women and a very attractive women, there are not as many black woman roles in Hollywood for the same reason there are not very many Hispanic roles for women....they are a minority group.

[My2Cents]

Hey, now there's a thought! "Halle Berry IS 'Secty. of State Condoleezza Rice'!" I'd go see that movie.

[popdonnelly]

Hmmmm, Hollywood is so racist she can only make tens of millions of dollars. Well, life is tough for many. And she isn't exactly a great actress.

[Welsh Rabbit]

This broad is hot as all hell yet cannot keep a man to save her life.

She's beautiful, but I don't find her sexy at all. I'm not really sure why. Maybe it's because her beauty is too perfect to the point of seeming artificial, or maybe it's because her self-absorbed attitude over shadows her, even when in character. Also, she's a lousy actress (way too much melodrama...).

[silent_jonny]

Really? I heard that the Oscars this year are the most "diverse" in history--even more so than 3 years ago when Halle won her award.

[Don Corleone]

"I've been called a nigger straight to my face

Being interviewed by "Sheets" Byrd I guess.

[Sloth]

Such an original idea! Someone should buy the rights to ... "Hunt For Red October" . . . . .

And then re-write it with a bunch of "women of color" to make Halle happy. A black female CIA analyst realizes that a prototype missile submarine full of black female Russian naval officers intends to defect. Cast Queen Latifa as the sassy captain of the U.S.S. Harlem, an American fast-attack sub... I can see it now... "Oh no you DIDN'T flood them torpedo tubes at me, ho!"

[BibChr]

Oops, meant to ping you to #32, fwiw.

[silent_jonny]

Well, life is tough for many. And she isn't exactly a great actress.

Roger that. Her career has been based entirely on her beauty. Such misfortune!

[TommyDale]

Her first husband cheated on her with drugs.

[scouse]

If she had any sense of decency, she'd give back some of that money.

Or donate it to the "Condi Rice in '08" campaign. :>))

[silent_jonny]

BWAAAAHAAAAA!!!

[nothingnew]

Go polish your Academy Award.

I've got something else she can poli......never mind.

FMCDH(BITS)

[John Lenin]

For such a pretty girl she sure is angry.

[KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle]

If she had any sense of decency, she'd give back some of that money.

If she had any sense of decency, she'd have retired from the industry after this:

[silent_jonny]

Heh, heh.
