Halle Berry


 I believe many people know Halle Berry, artist who was born on August 14, 1966, in Cleveland, Ohio, is one of the top list number one actress in Hollywood. A natural performer, Berry earned a handful of beauty pageant titles during the early 1980s, including Miss Teen Ohio and Miss Teen America. She was eventually awarded first runner-up in the 1985 Miss U.S.A. competition. For a short time she attended Cleveland 's Cuyahoga Community College , where she studied broadcast journalism. However, Berry abandoned her idea of a career in news reporting before receiving her degree. Choosing to wholeheartedly devote her time to a career in entertainment, Berry moved to Chicago then New York City , where she found work as a catalog model. As the ‘80s turned into the ‘90s, the aspiring actress began a career in television with a role on the short-lived sitcom Living Dolls (1989), followed by a year-long run on the CBS prime-time drama Knot’s Landing, in 1991. Berry's first big-screen break came later that year when she was cast as Samuel L. Jackson’s drug-addicted girlfriend in Spike Lee’s Jungle Fever. More substantial supporting roles followed, including that of a stripper in the action-thriller The Last Boy Scout (1991), starring Bruce Willis; and as the woman who finally wins Eddie Murphy’s heart in the romantic comedy Boomerang (1992).
Berry was involved in a stormy relationship with Jungle Fever costar Wesley Snipes before marrying Atlanta Braves outfielder David Justice in 1993. The couple divorced in 1997, after which Berry became secretly engaged to jazz musician Eric Benét. She and Benét were married from 2001 to 2005.
In November 2005, Berry met French-Canadian supermodel Gabriel Aubry.
Berry confirmed on September 5, 2007 , that she was three months pregnant by Aubry.
She finally delivered a baby girl on Sunday (March 16, 2008).
