Some people would say that Halle Berry isn't black. All I see is a good actress.

All I see is a good actress.

I see eye-candy. Actress? Depends on your definition of actress.

She's pretty limited to extremely well-define characters that's with in her limited ability.

If she were to push the envelope at all, she'd be like, umm, either of the "actresses" in Swept Away or Gigli.

Still, John Wayne made a very long career out of playing John Wayne.

Note to Halle: Rule of thumb. Stay away from TV Guide Channel Interviews. They are the worst PR outfit in the business.

You are right, but she gets very insulted when interviewers call her multiracial or whatever. Either way, she's pretty. She's just not my taste though. Most of her roles are too depressing.

Halle Berry is half black. Her mother is white.

[HighWheeler]

from Halle Berry biography:

"A native of Cleveland, OH, where she was born to an African-American father and white mother on August 14, 1968, Berry was raised by her mother, a psychiatric nurse, following her parents' divorce."

At a big awards show held in the last year or two, she chose to highlight only her black heritage (to the exclusion of her white half), even though her black father was reported to have walked out on the family, leaving her white mother to raise her alone. She didn't even mention her mother. Ingrate. And she can't drive either.

She still looks hot.

Most women spend far too much time, and allocate far too much value to their hair. They do it only for other women, because most men don't give a rats ass about women's hair - unless it's one of those whacko-liberal Haircuts by Hatchet™.
