Halle's on her guard
Sydney Morning Herald ^ | March 1, 2005

Posted on 02/28/2005 4:49:58 PM PST by NCjim

US actress Halle Berry won a three-year restraining order against a San Francisco security guard she says sent a series of threatening letters to her home.

The man, identified as Robert Sawyer, said in court papers his contact with Berry was a result of mistaken identity and possible fraud and he begged the Oscar-winning actress for forgiveness.

Neither Berry nor Sawyer were in court for today's hearing where a judge ordered Sawyer to stay away from Berry's home and place of work and stop phoning, emailing or writing to her.

Sawyer wrote in documents submitted to the court that the contacts started after he met an attractive woman who introduced herself as Halle Berry and asked him to write a manuscript for her.

"I think Berry and myself are victims of mistaken identity, and possible fraud," he said.

He apologised for "disturbing (Berry) the way I've done. It was not my intention to do so".

According to papers filed on behalf of the actress, Sawyer wrote saying he wanted to spend Valentine's Day with Berry.

"Leave a message where I can reach you. I'm not playing now," he wrote.

Referring to the manuscript he had written, Sawyer added; "Call me. I'm serious, so stop horsing around. I'm tired as hell of not hearing from you. I was told that you'd talk to me when I finished. Its (sic) finished, so call me damn it."

I guess he can join me and all the others who Halle has taken out restraining orders on.

Funny that this story surfaces before the premier of her new made-for-TV Oprah movie.

I'm sorry the judge didn't also restrain Halle from delivering another over the top Oscar acceptance speech. But I guess there is no reasonable likelihood that will ever happen again.

Halle Berry is a racist. She's always pushing her blackness and racist causes...when she's half white. That's right. She's half white.

I disagree. Her mother raised her that way which I think probably says more about mom and her mind. I do think she's a bit crazy though. When she's interviewed in magazines, she says different things depending on whether the interviewer is white or black.

I think her hair is long because of the movie she just did, which I hope isn't as bad as the other Toni Morrison adaptation.

It's most likely a hair piece as you say for the new movie.

I love her short style. It frames her face so well.

I always thought they'd be a little "perkier" than that.

I don't know, I like her with long hair. I like a lot of women with long hair (only on the head though :-))
