Halle Berry changes tone after receiving backlash for considering transgender acting role
Academy Award winning actress Halle Berry is apologizing after she received backlash for considering a transgender role.
Catwoman's claws are coming out.
Halle Berry shared her disappointment with Drake on social media after the rapper used an image of her to promote his new single "Slime You Out" without her permission.
The photo, taken at the 2012 Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards, shows Berry covered in green slime, much to her chagrin. Celebrities are notoriously drenched in the neon goop throughout the course of the show.
