- “i got next, right?”
Although Gabriel Aubry and Halle Berry have split up, the model says he has nothing but love and respect for the actress, with whom he has a 2-year-old daughter.
translation: “sh*t. what the hell do you expect him to say? he’s a freakin canadian underwear model who bagged, boned, knocked up, and bounced on the baddest chick on the planet, and i’m a recently divorced 47 year old journalist writing anonymous copy for people.com just so i can fund my p*rn addiction and pay child support checks. FML and f*ck him. he’s lucky i don’t pee on this report instead of actually publishing it”
“While I will not comment on all of the wild inaccuracies being speculated about in the media, I am sad to say that Halle and I have decided together to separate at this time,” Aubry, a model, confirmed Friday in a statement to Access Hollywood released through his agency, Wilhelmina Models.
translation: “while i will not comment on all of the wild inaccuracies being speculated about in the media, i will say that i was initially sad that halle and i broke up. however, this sadness quicky subsided once i remembered that i’m rich, white, in my prime, and not only do i already have canadian and european women on lock, bagging halle has allowed me to in climb into 3rd place on the black american woman “white guys who can definitely get it” list, narrowly edging out steve nash and and falling right behind matthew mcconaughey and bobby deniro. basically, i’m saying “how do you like those apples, b*tch?” to God right now”
Reports of the couple’s break up first began circulating widely on Friday. Berry’s rep couldn’t be reached for comment.
translation: “reports of the couple’s break up first began circulating widely on friday. berry’s 25 year old rep couldn’t be reached for comment, and we suspect it might have something to do with berry’s disturbing tweet friday afternoon, pledging to (sic) “disembowel the next 25 year old b*tch she sees with her bare hands.” she cryptically followed that tweet moments later with “catwoman aint got sh*t on me.”
Aubry says of his Oscar winning ex, “She is, and will forever be, one of the most special and beautiful people that I have ever known, and I am certain that we will continue to have only love and respect for one another. The couple are putting daughter Nahla first, according to the model. “Her happiness and well-being are the most important thing for both of us,” Aubry says. “Please respect our privacy during this very difficult time.”
translation: “she is, and will forever be, one of the most special and beautiful people that i have ever known, and i will continue to say nothing but overwhelmingly positive things about her in public to make sure she doesn’t f*ck me in visitation while also bettering my chances of having unattached and unprotected post-break up sex in the 3 to 6 month future.”
Berry, 43, and Aubry, 34, had been together four years. They first met at a Versace store opening in Manhattan in February 2006.
translation: berry, 43, could have saved herself ton of time and trouble if she would have just rented zoolander.

Funny!
zoolander makes the cut with undercover brother and stepbrothers on the list of “movies that i enjoy, but would also understand if someone considered them to be one of the worst movies ever made” list
Stepbrothers was effin hilarious
Boats and ho*es
Love that song! And the Sweet Child of Mine rendition.
@KayBeezy
LOL! That’s one of my fav parts.
so you just gonna leave of anchorman huh?
“so you just gonna leave of anchorman huh?”
no, because anyone thinking that movie is terrible is obviously a pedophile
i understand that. Anchorman is one my favorite movies of all time but i know so many people who hate the movie. *shrug*
Would you include The Hangover? I agree about Anchorman being above reproach when it comes to greatness.
Your voice is like a cross between Fergie and Jesus – StepBrothers
that comment reduces me to tears everytime!
Hilarious!
He really can’t say anything bad about her…he was always the background to her foreground. Besides, he would come off as a complete douche*
*thru recent experience around 2520′s, they seem to love using this word. I don’t get it personally.*
i personally love “douche” and all of its derivatives. there aren’t many other words that give you more of an exact idea of a person’s personality than douche
@Sweetbee,
I love how you slipped that subtle reference from WTE in there lol
I still don’t know who this fool is. Now that they broke up, I still won’t know who he is. Don’t care. next.
I’m with Liz on this one.
Although, my outlook on my romantic future just took another small hit as one of the most gorgeous women on the planet is single at 43.
Sidenote: I’m so mad y’all got me watching Brandy & Ray J, it’s like a train wreck I can’t not look at. Also, when did Timbaland get so big?

Since he stopped taking horse tranquelizers…he got artificially swole and then all that swole turned into…swelling. yecch. Remember for a while folks were talking about Dr. Dre, Janet and a bunch of other celebrities injecting hormones and sh*t….
I read too many gossip blogs.
“Since he stopped taking horse tranquelizers…he got artificially swole and then all that swole turned into…swelling. yecch. Remember for a while folks were talking about Dr. Dre, Janet and a bunch of other celebrities injecting hormones and sh*t….”
yeah. timbaland looks like he swallowed every beat he’s ever made. the best way to describe him now would be unfortunate.
LMBO & It’s too early to have me laughing like this!!
“yeah. timbaland looks like he swallowed every beat he’s ever made. the best way to describe him now would be unfortunate.”
HAHAHAHA!!! Oh my God, this is hilarious! Here lies Jai de Vivre…kilt on a Monday morning, by a ridiculous comment…
“yeah. timbaland looks like he swallowed every beat he’s ever made. the best way to describe him now would be unfortunate.”
bwahaahahahaa!!
has to be one of the funniest things you’ve ever typed. lol
“Although, my outlook on my romantic future just took another small hit as one of the most gorgeous women on the planet is single at 43″
eh. i wouldn’t worry too much about that. she’s single because she wants to be.
I don’t care about her break-up. I have my own love life to worry about. And I really don’t care that she’s uber fine and she’s single at 43. That has no bearing on me and mine.
No disrespect, but why do women do that? Why do some of us do the whole “well, she’s so-and-so and she doesn’t have a man, so I have no hope?” I have NEVER heard a man do this. Just curious….
@ Mo: Tru dat although we (women) tend to have a scarcity mindset when it comes to eligible men and our chances for a great relationship and also compare ourselves to other women way more than men compare themselves to each other. I have to catch myself when I do that.
I still think Halle has to a little bit crazy, something about her just screams “a little off” to me. I personally think they both used each other as a come up. She got her baby, and he got name/face recognition. I couldn’t have picked his run of the mill 2520 azz out of a line up a couple years back, now he might stand a 3 out of 5 chance. QUESTION: Are there are a lot of ladies that dig Steve Nash? I don’t know any…lol
Yeah.. She seems a little off to me as well… Kinda “Chilli-ish” in a way..
@miss t-lee,
Hey, Lady! I gotta agree on some things you posted here. As much as I like Miss Berry, I got a feeling that she might be a lil’ crazy too. I also don’t understand the Steve Nash thing. Who? Fa’ real?
@legitimate_soul
*waving* hey girl!!!!
I was/am thoroughly confused about Steve Nash, like maybe I missed the memo. But the same S.Nash who plays for the Suns? Because he seems pretty nondescript.
***refuses to google Steve Nash***
…yeah I just did. I had no idea who he was, and he looks like a very average looking dude with stringy hair. hate long, straight hair o white dudes. Am I supposed to want him? Or Bobby Deniro?? Ug.
You know who I do want tho, that Jeffrey Dean Morgan from the Losers…
Jeffrey Dean Morgan does have a certain appeal about him, don’t he?
@RocktheCatbox
I’ve always had a thing for Bobby Deniro (even before I knew he was married to his first wife….who was a sista). I also feel the same way about Chazz Palminteri. So I guess its safe to say that… I have a thing for Italians?? **looking over my shoulder to make sure no one sees this** (yikes…did I just say that?) I think I’m just fascinated with their movies. Would probably never date a 2520 in real life, though. I love brothas way too much! : )
@CNotes,
I thought I was the only one who dug Chazz Palminteri like that…lol
@miss t-lee
lol…..I was hooked on him from A Bronx Tale. I think it was his quiet but powerful persona that gave him the sexy stamp in my book.
@CNotes,
Yeah…I dug him in that movie and the Usual Suspects.
I think it’s that voice!
LONG LIVE BOBBY DE NIRO!
Okay, I had to look up Steve Nash. Scary, like an Avatar w/o the blue makeup.
Jeffrey Dean Morgan, yeah.
Robert DeNiro, yeah.
Joe Mantegna , yeah.
Mastuhiro Mariomoto, oh yeah.
Steve Nash…..NO. ‘kaythxbye
“QUESTION: Are there are a lot of ladies that dig Steve Nash? I don’t know any…lol”
thats because you live in texas.
@ The Champ,
LMAO!!! I don’t even think that has anything to do with Steve Nash being anti-cute.
She’s probably one of those clingy, eye twitching types that don’t want her man to leave the house without a lojack lol
@ miss t-lee “QUESTION: Are there are a lot of ladies that dig Steve Nash? I don’t know any…lol”
You know what? I was JUST thinking that same thing while reading this post! Gabriel Aubrey is 3rd to Steve Nash and Robert DeNiro? Champ, I don’t know which black womens’ “White-men-who-could-get-it” list you’ve had access to, but I don’t know ANYONE with these two on their list either!
Still, the comment did get me thinking about the first White celebrity crush I had. I’ll never forget watching Universal Soldier as a young’un and drooling over Jean Claude van Damme – pretty sure I wanted to marry him for some time!
I should have known someone would write about this. Funny post. Though, I think this is a win/win situation. Halle has her child, which is probably all she wanted in the first place. And Aubrey got to have sex with Halle Berry, and get invited to events he would have never been invited to if he wasn’t with Halle. He played the role of Mr. Berry very well.
“Though, I think this is a win/win situation”
i’d agree.
btw, i have no idea why i’ve started to say “i’d agree” instead of just “i agree”.
wow! i never get one of these this early. that means i have to WORK tomorrow?? really? hmmm…
anyways..there was a post in essence about her leaving a play with some black dude. once this news broke, the blogosphere blew up with posts from (mostly dudes) who claimed that Halle must be the devil/stinky kitty/crazier than the chick from misery + basketball wives combined since she can’t keep a man.
below is a comment left by someone else that i thought summed it all up pretty well:
I’m so sick of people saying she can’t keep a man! She was married for 4 years in her previous marriages and with Gabe for 5, so I’m lost on that logic..And why does it have to be her?? Could it possibly that they wanted different things? I think we’ve all been in relationships where we picked the wrong partners and it didn’t work out..Does that mean that all the single ladies reading and commenting, are crazy and can’t keep a man!? And why does George Clooney get called the “Confirmed Bachelor” when he goes thru women like underwear..And what about J-Lo who went with thru 2 husbands,Diddy and Ben Affleck in less time that she’s been married to Marc Anthony? Or Kate Hudson who bounces from d*ck to d*ck? People kill me.. Halle got treated like sh*t and got hurt in her marriages, so who wouldn’t be hesitant.
Yes. she’s the common demoninator – but doesn’t everyone go through a few relationships before they end up with the person they are supposed to be with? most don’t marry their childhood sweethearts.
because she’s considered one of the most beautiful women in the world.. she’s not allowed to be flawed like every other human being?
at the end of the day, there are still 20,574,619 men out there who would give up (fill-in-the-blank here) to a) speak to her b)date her c)f*uck her d)wife her e) have a baby with her to be connected to her and have an excuse to see her for at least the next 20 yrs.
#ontothenext…
That random commenter summed up my feelings pretty well.
@Keisha Brown
” And why does George Clooney get called the “Confirmed Bachelor” when he goes thru women like underwear.”
Because we know he has no intention on getting married. Most dudes that aren’t getting married want to live like George Clooney on their own level.
” And why does George Clooney get called the “Confirmed Bachelor” when he goes thru women like underwear.”
All a front. He’s a closet homo. This generation’s Rock Hudson. Let it settle.
Co-sign. I’ve been trying to put people on to that for a minute. His Gay-dar is in stealth, but it’s still on…
Bond.
@ Tx10inch
“All a front. He’s a closet homo.”
I concur. Something ain’t right about that kat either.
two things:
1. “And what about J-Lo who went with thru 2 husbands,Diddy and Ben Affleck in less time that she’s been married to Marc Anthony? Or Kate Hudson who bounces from d*ck to d*ck?”
whoever wrote this comment obviously doesn’t spend much time out of the blackblogosphere because women like kate hudson, j-lo, and jennifer anniston get hit with the “can’t keep a man” chorus 1000 times worse than halle berry does.
2. “Halle got treated like sh*t and got hurt in her marriages, so who wouldn’t be hesitant. but doesn’t everyone go through a few relationships before they end up with the person they are supposed to be with? most don’t marry their childhood sweethearts.”
while this is true, i think people are just amazed that someone as pretty/famous/successful/old (yes. old. she’ll be 50 by the end of obama’s second term) as her continues to pick the “wrong” guy. plus, unlike another uber-starlets, she seems like a genuinely likable person, which makes her lack of long-term relationship success even more puzzling.
That’s true, she ought to be able to have more discernment when choosing a man at this age. If marriage was her goal, you’d think that she’d go for less of a disposable dude. I respect her decision to do what makes her happy at the time/change her mind, but I think Halle never grew out of having sh*tty taste in men.
I think Halle never grew out of having sh*tty taste in men.
I think I agree with this statement.
@Champ
Everyone’s caught up on Halle, but she’s had her time. The real over 40 banger has always been Stacey Dash. Even in the 30′s she was badder than Halle during the same time period. Halle just got more shine. Very much under rated in comparison. Why is that?
Hot looks aside, Stacey is little not media-relevant, and wasn’t really in her 30s even with the Clueless sitcom. If you are black and don’t get major work in Hollyweird, you don’t get talked about and have to find a Kardashian to hang out with/hold their purse so people remember you (lookin at you, Ciara). Your average white entertainment writer generally has no idea and does not care who LisaRaye, Stacey Dash, the cast of Girlfriends or Megan Goode are (which is why the latter is always having her picture taken at random places with no bra). I have seen a lot of photo credits on white blog sites that confuse Megan Goode for Ciara
or Esther Rollebecause they don’t have to know the difference. They know the black actors who have major studio backing. There is no white equivalent for the BET Blackbuster! Most of “our” actors are just not considered worthy of news (looking at you, cast of Deliver Us from Eva).It just goes to show that looks really aren’t everything. People tend to judge others based on how attractive they are. If you ask me (which I know you didn’t)…I think a guy dates her and stays because of who she is ….and when he can’t take it anymore, he leaves.
Maybe…and granted she is human (although I do suspect the woman may be a cyborg just based off her acting ability) she is wealthy and famous, and simply cannot date many/most of those 20,574,619 men, so it is exponentially easier for me to find someone compatible than it would be for her. I don’t really have to worry about stalker fans, psychopaths or the creepiness of someone wanting to be connected to me for an excuse to see me (what woman wants THAT?! I’m uncomfortable) I can safely date and be seen with men without, for the most part, my decision being damaging to my career or way of life. I see what you’re saying…being wealthy, gorgeous and famous doesn’t entitle you to more than the same, who knows what her relationships are actually like and she certainly did not deserve physical abuse.
Eh, That’s too bad about their break-up. Kudos for having enough sense to keep it mature in the press, whether sincere or not. Other than that… *shrug*
I totally agree…you gotta respect that. Hope it stays that way!
ionreallycare about halle and whatshisface breaking up.
but, there are BW that actually LIKE steve nash??? where is this coming from? i’ve seen it on this blog a few times and i just don’t get it. he makes nan list of mine except “nba player to most likely become a serial killer based on looks alone.”
This is the only place I’ve ever heard about it. *shrugs*
I actually like Steve Nash… He’s definitely not my first white boy choice (I like my white dudes, midwestern and corn fed, think Ashton) but I find him… endearing…
Yeah I’m going to have to agree that this Black women liking Steve Nash comment is rather unfounded.
me too. methinks champ must be mixing up basketball fandom in here somewhere. i think he kinda looks like a wet dog. not much sexy about steve nash at all.
not much sexy about steve nash at all.
Girl, Steve is as far away from sexy as a man can get. He always looks wet, and that is not sexy a sexy look for him. I think Champ got this info from the same source who told him women love Drake.
“I think Champ got this info from the same source who told him women love Drake.”
lol, panama wrote that (about women loving drake). and, while some vss’s may have disagreed, there seems to be quite a sizable population who dogmatically agree.
LOL… my bad Champ.
And you may be right, my younger sister loves him. But I think that’s because she faithfully watched Degrassi, and is a Drake fan because of that.
Hilarious post, Champ. And perfect too, til you got to that Steve Nash business. Steve Nash??? C’mon, I’m as perplexed on this one as a few of the other ladies posting before me.
Now if you had named Depp, Gere, Pitt or Clooney, I might not have even paused. But again, Nash??? Hell, even my 2520 UPS man would get it first. (No offense, Mr. Hot Brown Shorts.)
So Champ, you must really be into the playoffs lately, right?
Oh, and best wishes and sh*t to Ms. Berry.
I’m puzzled about the Steve Nash thing too??? I would have picked Johnny Depp or Clive Owen over Nash.
“Now if you had named Depp, Gere, Pitt or Clooney, I might not have even paused. But again, Nash??? ”
^^ Exactly…but this Steve Nash nonsense…extreme O_o Champ
Richard Gere. oh yeah. He is the man.
Steve Nash? Yuck. lol.
Lol, it lasted longer than I had anticipated.
Funny translation tho.
PS: WTF is steve nash again?
“it lasted longer than I had anticipated.”
thats what she said. welcome and sh*t, btw
Just wanna chime in on Steve Nash – that shit ain’t happenin’! LOL – he’s a great player though, & too bad about the breakup…
Co-sign. Nash is a great player and seems like a good guy by giving to African charities, etc but I don’t know know any woman who has a thing for him…
hie everybody!! new here. i must say, you people comment really early…
i really feel sorry for Halle, and i think that the reason why people say she can’t keep a man is (besides the multiple marriages and divorces) that SHE gives the impression she really does want to settle down with one person,and she has been wanting to have a kid since forever but she did not want to have one OOW (out of wedlock),but changed her mind after getting a divorce from the previous hubby and paying alimony. so since then it’s just been,-i want to have a baby.
i might be wrong.
welcome and sh*t. and yeah, vsb is like crack, only crack won’t give you carpal tunnel.
I know this post is supposed to be about Halle Berry, but I really am stuck on the whole Steve Nash thing…..did he get thrown into this cause he’s a Canadian too? seriously, I just don’t get it…
Always was a fan of Mr. Aubry physically, and Ms. Berry (no Hurricane Chris) is pretty,but looks clearly CLEARLY aren’t enough to build a relationship on. What’s been most disturbing to me is reading internet commentators(I’m assuming they’re basic women) talk about how if the most beautiful woman (more often than not they use the “baddest b in the game”) in the world can’t keep a man what luck do they have. I’d suggest having something besides looks to hitch your wagon to.
All in all, it really is just another human whose relationship didn’t work out, or maybe it worked out exactly like they wanted it to. moi, je sais pas.
so you also read the comments on necolebitchie huh? im still perplexed that people still think attractiveness is the foundation of a relationship. sure attraction has to be there when you initially meet, but if that is your sole basis for a long term relationship, it has ended before it has already begun. break ups happen all the time, halle berry’s relationship ‘problems’ are just spotlighted because she is famous. it’s none of my business, so i’ll just wish her goodluck and keep it moving. ’tis all
im still perplexed that people still think attractiveness is the foundation of a relationship.
I am constantly puzzled by that assumption… especially when people see others in the street and ask themselves “what is she doing with him or vice versa?”… It seems there is a whole gang of people out there who truly believe looks are the end all, be all… And there I thought it was not true… *smh*
“What’s been most disturbing to me is reading internet commentators(I’m assuming they’re basic women) talk about how if the most beautiful woman (more often than not they use the “baddest b in the game”) in the world can’t keep a man what luck do they have. ”
I joke like this all the time, but it is really sad to see how many women are dead serious when they says this.
“I joke like this all the time, but it is really sad to see how many women are dead serious when they says this.”
Exactly! I do not understand the whole “she’s much prettier than me and she’s single so I have no hope” attitude.
actually, its je “ne” sais pas. sorry i had to do it.
Me thinks Halle Berry’s inherent Halle Berryness will guarantee that she’ll be ok.
As a black man in love with a black woman and the brother of two black sisters the words “I wanna f**k Steve Nash” have never been uttered. Not buying it. Next you’re going to tell us there’s a sober Irishman somewhere.
I guess I was the slow one cuz I didn’t know what Steve Nash looked like and decided to google him. Ummm, he is so not the business. I agree with the other commenters above.
In regards to Halle, it just proves that looks aren’t everything.
What??? A second week of Champ?? What have we done to deserve such an honor… Ninja must be puttin in that work lol.
(somehow i sense a deez comment coming on…. )
“What??? A second week of Champ?? What have we done to deserve such an honor… Ninja must be puttin in that work lol.”
I know, I was sittin’ here like…o_O, um, where’s Panda? Panda deez?
He’s in solitary confinement this week.
i was thinking the SAME thing. lol.
thought PJ became a wayward ninja and caught a case or something and is ‘unavailable’. smh.
i kid i kid. lol.
i’m not surprised. He never really seemed like her type to me. Halle likes black men…she thought she would try something new..since, all of the previous men had dogged her out…her girlfriends, were probably telling her to open herself up to a white man again (I think she dated a white man back in the day before she was famous). She has already been spotted with a new man (a fine, chocolate brotha) She is wasting no time getting back into the swing of things….Good for you Halle! Get It!
This Gabrield dude will be okay. She is probably financing him. He will shut up about her…in fact, I have never, ever heard him speak * in an interview or anywhere else*…he seems pretty docile to me…
Um hmm! I saw Halle w/ that new brotha on her arm too. She should’ve know better…. you can’t leave the brothas alone! Welcome back, Ms. Berry
LOL!
I think I agree with this assessment…the white guy was just a little experiment with getting in touch with the other side of her gene pool…
Ima have to google Steve Nash…WTH is that?!
Girl I swear! Not even two minutes ago I had to google his azz.
o_O Champ.
What’s funny is that I always hear of his name (mostly from Champ), but I always have to re-google him to see what he looks like. lol
So the new rumor is that Halle thought Gabe was lazy & didn’t contribute much…well let me see…he was a model when she met him…his JOB is to be gorgeous & take pretty pictures…fast forward to now…he’s still a model, still gorgeous, still takes a pretty picture & can claim 50% to the making of Nahla (cue Lion King music). What am I missing here?
Seriously, who the heck is Steve Nash???
LOL, he’s a professional basketball player (NBA), plays point guard for the Phoenix Suns.
@Michele
“Seriously, who the heck is Steve Nash???”
A point guard that is one of if not the worse defensive liability in the NBA.
Halle’s relationships have lasted a lot longer than a lot of people I know and definitely lengthy as far as Hollywood goes… #shruglife
Is Halle really the most gorgeous woman on the planet? I never thought that about her…but I’m not a dude, and everyone’s aesthetic isn’t the same. I always thought she was cute and basic and having a nose job definitely helped both de-ethnicize her and get her more work next to leading Hollywood white actors. I always thought Angela Basset was better looking (but had some bad weaves in her day. then again, so did Halle). Halle isn’t aging as well as Angela IMO. As far as acting I always found watching Halle to be supremely boring in movies, especially post-Boomerang. In fact all films she did after she stopped acting with Black casts (other than god-awful Baps) bored me to death because it was clear she was trying to make it in Hollywood by being Black Gwenth, the most boring white woman of all time. Sure she was very good at it and it made her rich but I was not a fan of her films anymore, lol. Meanwhile Angela acts like a member of the Overacting Negro Ensemble. I don’t know which is worse.
@RocktheCatbox

Halle is beautiful in the face. But she is lacking in the @ss department. I’ve always thought she was very attractive since I was a kid. To me she has never look good enough to overlook her lack of @ss. I still like Angela Bassett. It just seems like she is always crying or about to cry in ever thing she does.
Halle is definitely worse! Angela Basset isn’t about to go down as some actress whose just out there because of her good looks. she’s gonna show us that hell, I deserve to be here! So act on Angela, as dramatic as you want to be!
And not to take anything from Halle’s Oscar win, but I think it speaks volumes to some serious overarching issues (racism, sexism, patriarchy, yeah, I’m taking it there!) in Hollywood that she won an Oscar for freaking crusty Billy Bob. All I can remember from Monsters Ball is that scene, and the big boy fainting on the street in the rain. It was THAT bad.
Hey girl, hey!!!
LMAO!!!! Why you just go in on Halle like that?
I was watching some show…on E! I think…they were talking about the most shocking plastic surgery jobs ever. Before a commercial break they talked about Halle having one (which she denies). The plastic surgeons they had on the show consulting said it’s possible that she didn’t have one and her faced changed over time
*kanye shrug*
I haven’t seen Angela in a while…but I know Halle is aging gracefully imo
“Is Halle really the most gorgeous woman on the planet?”
She is in the conversation a** or not. Angela Bassett never got the proper “she could get it” credits from the masses. Time is being really kind to both of them.
“Is Halle really the most gorgeous woman on the planet?”
To me she is. She’s physically flawless.
I’m a straight female, for the record.
“Is Halle really the most gorgeous woman on the planet?”
You know what? I’ve heard a total of ONE brotha say that she ain’t all’at. It was my bro-in-law and the convo went a lil’ somethin’ like this:
*us watching some E! chexy humans countdown special or some sh*t*
Cheekie’s sister, Chyna: Ya know, I ain’t even gon’ lie. She is pretty!
Cheekie: *nods*
Bro-in-law: Eh, she ain’t all that to me.
Cheekie/Chyna: O_O
Chyna: WHAT?! Come on now, even I can admit she’s very pretty.
Bro-in-law: She aiight. She ain’t prettier than Alicia Keys.
Chyna: Alicia Key?! Oh, you just sayin’ that because she’s lighter skinned huh? (aside: keep in mind that my sis is damn near the same complexion as Alicia…lol) Typical.
Cheekie: *looks between them both with a :/ expression*
Bro-in-law: Naw, she just look better than her.
Chyna: Yeah, it’s because she’s light-skinned. *grumble*
*argument ensues*
@Cheekie
Your Bro-in-law is wrong. Alicia Keys over Halle Berry? I don’t think so. I’d hate to see his taste.
Alicia Keys over Halle Berry?
Hell naw. Not even 10 years from now.
Yeah I’ma have to say hell no, Halle wins….phsycially Halle seems to have a more elegant build, Alicia’s got her mama’s saddlebags/ass flatness and her arms seem to short for her body. Neither of them have much ass but Halle’s build makes sense.
@RocktheCatbox
” Alicia’s got her mama’s saddlebags/ass flatness and her arms seem to short for her body. Neither of them have much ass but Halle’s build makes sense.”
It’s funny how a woman notices this and men don’t. I’ve told mad dudes that Alicia Keys, Beyonce, and Halle Berry don’t have @ss. I’ve had dudes argue me and everything.
@Humnle_One,
“It’s funny how a woman notices this and men don’t. I’ve told mad dudes that Alicia Keys, Beyonce, and Halle Berry don’t have @ss. I’ve had dudes argue me and everything.”
Yeah, I think women are better experts in ass than men. lol My sister will argue up and down that Beyonce’s arse ain’t all it’s cracked up to be, but she’ll just be labeled a hater. She says it’s big, but doesn’t have a shape. I’ve never heard a man say her arse ain’t all that. In fact, that’s what they’re usually mesmorized by.
@Cheekie
Yeah, Bey is just wide…not much bump to the rump
@ Humble_One,Cheekie, LaBakir
I was almost stoned once for noting Beyonce’s lack of rump. I felt like Huey in last night’s Boondocks episode.
@LaBakir,
“Yeah, Bey is just wide…not much bump to the rump”
Yup. “Wide”. That’s the word she used actually. lol
@humble_one
“It’s funny how a woman notices this and men don’t. I’ve told mad dudes that Alicia Keys, Beyonce, and Halle Berry don’t have @ss. I’ve had dudes argue me and everything.”
wow. so who has an arse to you? i thought bey and a.keys were thick as they come.
“It’s funny how a woman notices this and men don’t. I’ve told mad dudes that Alicia Keys, Beyonce, and Halle Berry don’t have @ss. I’ve had dudes argue me and everything.”
beyonce and alicia keys both have asses like “big-booty” white girls. (trust me. this will make sense when you think about it)
@The Champ,
Yes. There is a big difference. Big booties along race lines are definitely not created equal.
a few famous women with, IMO real booty:
Janet.
Tracee Ellis Ross.
LisaRaye.
Jill Marie Jones.
Michelle DeSousa (semi-famous chick from Best Man).
Tichina Arnold
Wendy Raquel Robinson
It’s funny because when they’re on shows, sometimes the directors avoid shooting their behinds dead-on or only shoot walking shots waist-up, as though it will cause massive on-set destruction. LMAO!
@RocktheCatbox
Janet.
Tracee Ellis Ross.
LisaRaye.
Jill Marie Jones.
Michelle DeSousa (semi-famous chick from Best Man).
Tichina Arnold
Wendy Raquel Robinson
That’s a good list right thurr!
@RocktheCatbox,
You got throw the First Lady on that list, too. Michelle got a donk for real.

And let’s not forget the secret donk that’s not so secret anymore….

@Champ
“beyonce and alicia keys both have asses like “big-booty” white girls. (trust me. this will make sense when you think about it)”
Right. A lot of times when dudes say (insert 2520 women here) has an arse it is usually just wide hips and thick thighs.
@ComicBookGuy
“Yes. There is a big difference. Big booties along race lines are definitely not created equal.”
This became apparent to me when I hanged around the 2520s.
Alicia’s got her mama’s saddlebags/ass flatness and her arms seem to short for her body”
this comment made me think of a Tyrannosaurus Rex
which logically made me think of a T Rex singing NY state of mind…..which gave me a chuckle
@RocktheCatbox
I cosign your whole list except for Jill Marie Jones. I’m not sure about her backside. Her lips are crazy. I need some lips like that in my life right now. You are right about the cameras shooting them at certain angles. This is especially true with Wendy Raquel Robinson. She has a donk but you can hardly tell by the TV shows.
@Cheekie,
It’s really well-documented and known fact that Mrs. Carter nee Knowles does NOT have an a$$… She has wide hips and strong thighs but that’s about it… Reason why the 2520s love her… They don’t particularly care for a$$…
I take back Jill Marie Jones, lol. She’s got lips and tits tho. I found a pic of her rear end and it was a lot like Halle Berry’s, lmao
@Humble_One, ComicBookGuy, RocktheCatbox,
Yes, he most definitely wrong. Then again, I think he likes the light-brights just for being lightbrights His favorite chick is LisaRaye. Nuff said. I mean, while she is pretty…yeah, nuff said.
@Cheekie
“His favorite chick is LisaRaye. Nuff said. I mean, while she is pretty…yeah, nuff said.”
Yeah that says it all. I don’t get the appeal of her either. She has a body but other than that? When she opens her mouth it kills everything and she looks like an elf to me. But I shouldn’t be one to talk. I’m a 1.5.
My SL ain’t that into her either. He says she’s pretty and all but she looks like drama and that ain’t attactive.
I feel you girl!! You gon get some people tight up in here talkin abut Halle, lol.. But I feel you. Just about all of the movies she’s ever made (with the exception of Losing Isaiah) center around the way the looks and/or her naked tittays lol…
I mean, most gorgeous ever I think is mostly because of her age. Sure, I could think of a few that are technically prettier than her.. but if u take into account the way she looks, her physique before and after having a child and being 43… sh*t we should all be lucky..
Of course I’m sure she’s had a little work done but who hasn’t in Hollywood…
Its crazy how in Boomerang she was supposed to be the plain looking chick. I just recently saw this movie again and was baffled at that casting.
i am stealing Overacting Negro Ensemble for my own future use…..u have been given notice
negroes are legal (save Arizona)
Umm, how do I agree!!!!!
I have ALWAYS thought Halle Berry was a boring actress and the typical ‘light skinned’ beauty.
Thank you for summing up feelings about this – And I think being boring is definitely worse than being apart of the overacting negro ensemble, haaa!!!
I used to be like, “Hell, if Halle Barry can’t keep a man, what does that mean for us average-type women?!?!” (disclaimer: that’s no insult to all the fly and beautiful women out there, but on the real, most of us are just “average” according to Hollywood’s standards of superficial whateverness).
But I’ve come to realize that there is clearly some other ish going on below the subcutaneous layers, something us normies will never understand. And honestly, I’d rather be average with the ability to maintain a long relationship than an 11 with men dropping left and right on me.
But I’ve come to realize that there is clearly some other ish going on below the subcutaneous layers, something us normies will never understand. And honestly, I’d rather be average with the ability to maintain a long relationship than an 11 with men dropping left and right on me.
Agreed. She’s a beautiful woman but she’s obviously lacking in other departments. (Although she is in Hollyweird so 5 years is pretty long around there.) But its like they say, show me a beautiful woman and I’ll show you a man that’s tired of f’ing her.
Maybe it’s just the cynic in me, but I’ve got a sneaking suspicion that this whole relationship was staged just for the sake of producing designer offspring.
Halle: “Hey Gabriel, you’re kinda cute. Since my eggs are drying up and I want a kid, how ’bout we handle that?”
Gabriel: “Well, I’ve been wanting to tap that since I saw you in Swordfish, but I dunno about the whole married with kids thing. I’m a model and I’ve got worldwide smashership rights to enjoy.”
Halle: “Ain’t nobody said nothing ’bout no marriage. That gets lawyers involved and sh*t, besides, I’ve been there and done that. We’ll make it look good for a couple years, have a kid, amicably breakup afterwards, and go back to our regular lives – that way I don’t seem like a ho who got knocked up. You know a kid by us can’t help but look fabulous.”
Gabriel: “Ok, let’s get naked.”
You know, frat? That definitely doesn’t seem to far fetched at all.
LOL!!
I imagine the convo went exactly like this.
LMAO @ designer offspring
@Caballeroso
“worldwide smashership rights”
Hilarious!!!
I think a similar convo went down between her and Eric Benet when she said he had a sex addiction problem.
Halle: You cheated on me. I’m Halle Berry. I can’t have folks thinking a man will cheat on me. It’s gonna eff up my sex symbol status in Hollywood and this ain’t my first marriage. Look here, if you want this alimony you gone have to ride and go along with you being a “Sex Addict”. I need to provide some reason why my relationship failed again.
Eric Benet: I probably wouldn’t have cheated if you didn’t act like every random dude could get it. You let Adrian Brody tongue you down while I was sitting in the audience, decided to show you breastesses in Swordfish, and had wild monkey sex with nasty Billy Bob Thornton. But I do need this money….. fine!
Halle: *calling Oprah*
^I never believed Eric Benet was a sex addict. He didn’t have hella chicks coming out the woodwork like Tiger. He had one chick. Yes, he was wrong for that, but I think that was a deal to help her come out the marriage looking better to say Eric Benet had a “problem”.
I met get ish for this comment but…something tells me it was her. I don’t know what it is about Halle. I think she is the 2nd most beautiful woman (Iman is first) but she strikes me as unstable. Just because someone is beautiful doesn’t mean they are all together upstairs. She may be effin crazy for all we know.
Anytime I see a BEAUTIFUL and RICH woman (and 40+ years in this case) who can’t keep a man…I think something must be really wrong with her.
SORRY…my opinion
okay..maybe not so much that she can’t keep a man…but can’t keep a man for longer than a few years? lol I dunno
@SmartFoxGirl
“Anytime I see a BEAUTIFUL and RICH woman (and 40+ years in this case) who can’t keep a man…I think something must be really wrong with her.”
I lightweight believe that being beautiful and rich can prevent some women from keeping a man. I think the beauty is more of a hinderance than being rich. This goes back to Panama’s post about the downsides of dating a dime.
You really think it’s her looks and wealth that is hindering her? Really??? Men love a beautiful and independent woman. C’mon. I love Halle too but you don’t think she may have issues? Oh well, I don’t know her and may be giving this too much thought. Back to the real world…lol
That translations are hilarious, man. Like a lot of people here, I didn’t know about their breakup until I saw this post so it is news to me.
Halle Berry is still beautiful at 43 and badder than most of the women at my age. Could she be a little kooky? Wouldn’t be surprised. Some of incredibly beautiful women can be. Like Caballeroso, I wouldn’t be surprised if dating a Canadian underwear model to produce an uber-cute baby was all a stunt. It’s Hollywood. I know guys my age and a little older miss the Halle circa 1991-1993, with the pretty smile and shirt hairstyle out of Strictly Business and Boomerang, hell, even the Flintstones. Do I think her as Storm in X-Men was a stretch? Yes. Angela Basset would have superb as Storm. Do I think Halle has aged gracefully? Hell, yes. Pretty women out there should look at Halle Berry being single at 43 to be a bad sign for them not being able to get a man. That’s stupid. It just shows that there may be some truth to the idea of underwear models being about as deep as a blowup kiddie pool.
Oh, and Champ, where did you get the idea of black women liking Steve Nash? Matthew McConaughy and Jake Gyllenhaal have come up before, but not Nash.
Do I think her as Storm in X-Men was a stretch? Yes. Angela Basset would have superb as Storm.
Hmmmm…never thought about that until now. I think A.B. would’ve done a good job. That’s like when they cast soft a$$ Terrence Howard in Iron Man. I was sooooo mad! Like they couldn’t find ANYBODY else for that role? With is sweet voice “Tonay”…not Tony…Tonay
@LaBakir
“With is sweet voice “Tonay”…not Tony…Tonay”
LMAO. You made be crack up with this. LOL.
Boy, black women be killing me when they talk about Terrence Howard. My little niece had me rolling talking about his voice as the Dad in The Princess and the Frog. That comment was just about as funny as when Jamie Foxx impersonates Terrence Howard.
LOL..
I’m not gonna front…I had a thing for him when he was in the HBO movie Lackawanna Blues….but those are the roles he should stick to…like his character in The Best Man
A military man…a one w/ clout at that?!!! Nah, Terrence did not pull that off at all. He made me mad,lol
You are too funny. You can see him as the pretty/bad boy but not as a HNIC. Hilarious.
@ComicBookGuy
Yeah man…T. Howars is a PAN (pu**y A$$ ninja)
@ LaBakir
When I was crate digging on Sunday, I found a used copy of T-Howard’s cd. The idea of him having a cd doesn’t bother me. The fact that someone actually bought a new copy of it then sold it back is what upset me.
@Wu Young Agent of M.E.
LMAO! I actually giggled out loud…too funny
Have you listened to it?
@LaBikir
Listened to it? Hell I apologized to the lord last night for actually touching it. I saw his video once on VH1 and nearly called out sick from work. If there were a second in record stores labeled “Music for people who hate music” his cd would be in it. *mumbling* Have I listened to it?
@ Wu Young Agent of M.E.
LMAO! You’re slaying me today!
@Wu Young Agent of M.E.
@LaBakir,
And to think he had the nerve to talk bad about Jamie Foxx’s album. Jamie clowned his @$$ royally.
@ComicBookGuy
I haven’t heard Jaime’s latest…but his 1st album was fi-ya
@LaBakir ComicBookGuy
I live to slay.
I heard Jamie clowining him on Tom Joyner one morning. Just brillant!
“With is sweet voice ‘Tonay’…not Tony…Tonay”
Lmao, Somewhere tear an own his cheek
P.S. Iron Man 2 was great
I can’t wait to see it! I did read a bad review about it, but I don’t care. I need to see some ish get blown up and some fights go down.
@ComicBookGuy
“Do I think her as Storm in X-Men was a stretch? Yes. Angela Basset would have superb as Storm.”
You know I thought the same thing. I wondered who though she fit best for that role. I could think of a few other chics that would have been better. But Angela Bassett was number one.
Side Note: Did you get your free comics Saturday?
I think they were looking for more star power in the first X-Men movie for them to cast Halle like that.
Yes, sir, I did dip by the comic book store and copped a few few issues on Saturday. The Iron Man/Thor issue was pretty cool.
She sucked in the 1st one…..but got better as the movies progressed
@ComicBookGuy
“Yes, sir, I did dip by the comic book store and copped a few few issues on Saturday. The Iron Man/Thor issue was pretty cool.”
I picked up the Iron Man/Thor, G.I. Joe, and Savage Dragon issues. That was my first time being in a comic book store in almost 20 years. It was funny how damn near everybody there looked the same regardless of race. I looked around to see if any of the comics I use to read as a kid were still around. It doesn’t look like they make them anymore.
@Humble_One, Wu Young, & CBG
As anyone who actually has read comics, Halle was nothing like Storm. If casting was more about authenticity and less about star power, then they would have found a lovely, tall actress from Nigeria, Ethiopia, etc (think a young Iman). Like my fellow SC VSB noted, Halle was cast for star power…authenticity be d@mned.
Then again, if they were really trying to be authentic, they would’ve gotten Danny Devito to play Wolverine instead of H. Jackman. Go figure…
You definitely feel me on that one, then. They hit a home run with Patrick Stewart playing Prof. X, and that made Hugh Jackman, a dude that sang Broadway, into an action star. A young Iman wound have been great, too, but a strong actress like Angela Bassett would have been perfect. She definitely had the physique for it, because don’t get it twisted, Storm will throw dem hands when she wasn’t making it rain. That’s also why I feel that only Wesley can play Black Panther. If not him, a good African brother that can actually act will do. Hell, I’ll even take the dude that played Adebisi in OZ.
@ComicBookGuy
“That’s also why I feel that only Wesley can play Black Panther. If not him, a good African brother that can actually act will do. Hell, I’ll even take the dude that played Adebisi in OZ.”
What about Djimon Honsou?
@Humble_One, DG, & CBG
I’m still wainting on a Heroes for Hire movie. Will Smith and McConaughey as Luke Cage and Iron First. It could work.
@Humble_One,
Djimon would work, too, but he is too obvious. Plus, it seems like Kimora won’t let him out of the house without her anymore. My man been ghost for a minute.
@Wu Young Agent of M.E.,
Those two have become two of my favorite characters over the past 5 years. They are more popular than they were in the 70s. That would be a hilarious movie.
@ComicBookGuy
An ex-con with super strength, a super powered alkie white wife, an interracial baby who’s best friend is literally a kung-fu billionare with a black girlfriend with an afro and a metal arm. What’s not to like?
Honestly, I think Michale Jai White could pull of Black Panther too! He pulled off Spawn and he has the build and Martial Arts training.
Agreed on Angela Bassett being Storm….shoot, they even could have got Nona Gaye (remember her in Matrix and taking the role when Aaliyah passed).
@legitimate_soul,
Nona Gaye would have been great as Storm, too. Tall, brown skin and fine as hell.
@Humble_One, DG, & CBG
Movie adaptations have the habit of minimalizing characters. Halle’s version of Ororo is more of “I’m just gonna throw lightning at you.” The comic version fancies herself as more of a brawler and had no problem with laying hands. I agree that an African actress should’ve gotten that part. If they ever give Black Panther a film maybe that’ll will happen. This is Honsou’s role to lose.
Jackman was too tall for Logan, but he owned that sh*t.
Jackman was too tall for Logan, but he owned that sh*t.
Hell yeah he owned it! I loves me some him as Wolverine. When he fought Sabertooth in his Wolverine flick…and son was like…”VIIIICCCCCTTTOORRRR” *shivers*
My man Liev played the hell out of Sabertooth
@LaBakir,
My man Liev played the hell out of Sabertooth.
I totally agree. Yeah, Sabretooth is a bigger guy compared to Wolverine, but as far as being a conniving @$$hole as Sabretooth, he was great.
@ComicBookGuy
Yo! I was in the theatre amped! I never seen anybody give Wolverine the business like Sabertooth…he was kicking his a$$!!! I went to go shake the person next to me in excitement…and realized I went to see the flick alone…lol :/
I like ur thorough immersion in comic books, can definitely get down with all the comic book heads that contributed to this thread.
side bar I woulda liked a young bobby deniro (taxi driver) as wolverine….have no idea why…..maybe cuz wolverine was always an anti-hero to me
but yeah sabertooth was the truth in the flick
It’s funny how a topic about Halle Berry’s breakup could lead to a thread about Wolverine. Only on VSB. A young DeNiro would have been great as Wolverine. Wolverine is definitely the anti-hero, but he also Marvel’s cash cow along with Spider-Man. That’s probably why Marvel is giving the two of them their own team-up book. What will make that so funny is that two of them do not particularly like each other. Wolverine hates his jokes and Spider-Man hates that Wolverine actually kills people.
@Blacklaw
Sabertooth is such a great villian because nothing is beneath him.
@ComicBookGuy
Who is writing that book? I’m adding it to my pull list. The dynamic between Spidey and all of the X-Men was always good. At least to me anyway.Does Peter Parker know that Logan knew his parents? If not that should come up during the series.
@Wu Young Agent of M.E.,
It is written by Jason Aaron and drawn by Adam Kubert. It comes out Wednesday. Jason Aaron is becoming one of my favorite Wolverine writers. One scene that is funny from the preview I saw is they both are responding to the bank robbery and when they get there at the same time, they are both like “Oh God, not you.”
@ComicBookGuy
Nice. I’ll be sure to add it. I’m guessing this is taking place post-Seige?
@Wu Young Agent of M.E.,
Yep, but you are probably like me and wondering where the hell Siege #4 is. I do like the fact they are going to keep the two of them on the Avengers. Spider-Man needs as many friends as he can get.
@ComicBookGuy
Spidey always does need friends. I hope they restore the marriage. I’m guessing they will considering MJ remembers and Spidey has that One Moment in Time story line coming up. I have no idea where Seige 4 is. Obama’s role in that story is pretty interesting. Second Coming is good too. Maybe now the X-Men will act like they have friends too.
Who are the new Avengers now? Spidey, Wolvie, The Cages and who else?
@Wu Young Agent of M.E.,
Here is what I have seen:
Avengers – Bucky Cap, Iron Man, Thor, Hawkeye, Spider-Woman
New Avengers – The Cages, Wolverine, Spider-Man, the Thing
Secret Avengers (an underground, kinda black ops team) – Steve Rogers, War Machine, Beast, Black Widow, Moon Knight, Hank Pym as Ant-Man, Valkyrie and Nova.
Plus, Luke is supposed to the new leader of the Thunderbolts.
@Humble_One
Whenever the topic of comic books come up….I think of that episode of True Blood where ol’ boy is reading comic books to his vamp girlfriend over the phone
Hoyt?
Yes! My man Hoyt…couldn’t think of his name for the life of me at that moment
“Do I think her as Storm in X-Men was a stretch?”
She was cast in this role for the sake of star power. Storm intimidates with her presence. Halle as Ororo, not so much.
Yes I loved the “old” Halle from back in the day but she still got it. Her body is incredible now.
I hope it wasn’t a stunt cause many actresses are adopting or having surrougates. I don’t think she would have been looked down on.
“Oh, and Champ, where did you get the idea of black women liking Steve Nash? Matthew McConaughy and Jake Gyllenhaal have come up before, but not Nash.”
from out of my *ss. every once in a while i like to pull things out of there and see how that sh*t smells
Most guys have came to the conclusion that Halle Berry is crazy. Fine @ss hell but crazy. I don’t know the whole story and don’t care to know. She is in Hollywood and they live a totally different life than us. I do find it odd that a woman that old still makes bad choices in men. But it’s not like she is a special case. I’m still baffled by grown women that make bad choices in men when the signs are obvious. I only know one dude like that and although he is my homeboy he is “soft on h**s(street term and no disrespect to the VSS)” and is a sucker for a pretty face.
I think we are saying the same thing. lol It’s an epidemic. We simply cannot judge off of looks. Crazy people come in all types. I have some crazy ass friends who are gorgeous.
I’m a firm believer in looks attract but personality KEEPS. You got to have something to back up that nice look or I’m out. I think the same applies to Halle cause Eric Benet cheated on her…wtf?
I’m a firm believer in looks attract but personality KEEPS.
You ain’t never lied.
@ComicBookGuy
so true
SB: you got my cookies?
Awww, damn. Is today the day?
No sir…Thursday. Just want to keep it on your radar
I will keep that on my mind. Oh yeah, I just checked out your last blog entry. “The Reason” by Hoobastank is a beautiful song. The lyrics are great.
@ComicBookGuy
BTW…I watched The Mack….AWESOME!
“I’ll be your father, your friend, your lover…but you have to trust me bay-bee”
Man, that movie is full of quotes.
“N***a, you ain’t no pimp. You just a rest haven for h**s.”
“Now get yourself together, go out there and get me my money!”
Love that movie and love that soundtrack. RIP Willie Hutch, straight out of Dallas, Texas. That man’s music influenced so much in hip hop.
I’m not a huge blog follower/reader, but I checked yours out last week and I was very impressed….as mentioned by CBG, the joint on Willie Hutch was on point…as I stated last week, a woman who knows and appreciates good music = sexxy in my book.
Keep doing your thing, girl.
@DG and ComicBookGuy
@ ComicBookGuy
so many quotables in that movie. Max Julien’s voice alone had me in tears…he was so smooth. And Richard Pryor mustve been high like kite in a couple of those scenes.

“I think we are saying the same thing. lol It’s an epidemic. We simply cannot judge off of looks. Crazy people come in all types. I have some crazy ass friends who are gorgeous.”
We are saying the same thing. I totally agree with you.
“I’m a firm believer in looks attract but personality KEEPS. You got to have something to back up that nice look or I’m out.”
So, so, true. You can become unattractive or even ugly to me if your pesonality sucks.
“I’m a firm believer in looks attract but personality KEEPS. You got to have something to back up that nice look or I’m out.”
Nine times out of 10 I would agree with this…but I gotta say that sometimes a person’s attractiveness will make you stick around a lil’ longer/tolerate more than you normally would. I don’t know about the women here, but I’m sure nearly every VSB up in here has put up with some crazy ish from a beauty with some crazy assets….I’m talking about be halfway out the door, then turn around and look at her and be like, “D@mn…she fine as hell”. I’m tellin’ ya, an ample a$$ and beautiful face can leave a ninja mesmerized.
i have stayed an extra 3 to 6 mos on the strength of a perfect, dimpled, bubble when a chick lay on her stomach…….coupled with the fact my old chick also slept on her stomach…… i was getting very little sleep in my relationship….
I understand completely, Team….been there a time or two myself.
Okay okay…very true. I put up with alot from my ex cause that ninja was foine!! lol Plus I can be a little eccentric sometimes..but that’s just cause I’m jamaican.
But would you marry and pledge the til death do us part stuff? I don’t think so. You’ll tolerate that crazy pretty girl but not for long. Case in point, Halle’s 2-4 year stints. Erykah Badu is one crazy beauty with a bootey…and where’s her man? I’m just sayin….
“But would you marry and pledge the til death do us part stuff? I don’t think so. You’ll tolerate that crazy pretty girl but not for long”
Perhaps, but keep in mind a good percentage of marriages in the US are over within the first 5 years. To love “thru sanity and madness” is not part of the traditional vows, as I recall.
BTW, Jamaican women are a prime example of what I’m talking about…gorgeous and maybe, just maybe, a lil’ eccentric (your words, not mine…love ya’ll to death tho)…a man will stick around and deal with almost every ‘ting you say, do, or hurl at him, if it means he gets to stare at you/be in your presence longer. Beauty just makes Crazy a lil’ more tolerable…that’s all (now that should be on a T-shirt)
looks attract but personality KEEPS
i’d like to place my order for this tshirt. ladies fitted in black!
“looks attract but personality keeps”…… on the front of shirt
“me and you friends after a breakup….”..on the back of shirt
Because of his single, “Say Ahh”, I picture Trey Songz saying, “whoababywhatsyoname” to Halle Berry in that pic.
Yeah, Gabriel did the right thing by saying what he did. I mean, he can’t badmouth the baddest chick who just so happened to get cheated on by a sex maniac. I mean, he can never look as big as a-hole as him (unless he is a sex maniac and one of his conquests was Whoopi), but I’d wager he wouldn’t want to be on the same playing field as him, let alone be a bigger douche. Plus, as hot as he is…his name is Gabriel. Folks would roast him like a pig on Memorial Day.
FUNNY!!!!!
This woman can’t keep a man! I am convinced that her inability to act is the reason why she can’t maintain a relationship. I find myself every now and then having to ACT in my relationship. This isn’t being dishonest. I just find that sometimes the small things can get a pass and you just ACT your way around them. For example: I am a bit of a food snob that is very particular about where I eat. My friend takes me to his favorite spot. He is all excited about the food and keeps going on about how he can’t wait for me to try it. I get there and I am completely turned off by the food and the place. So I realize that this thing is really important to him so I ACT like it was the best place ever so that I wouldn’t hurt his feelings. It wasn’t horrible. It just wasn’t the type of place that I’d ever go back to…even if I had to run in just to use the ladies’ room. She clearly doesn’t have this ACTING ability.
Gabriel: “Babe…you want to fool around a little?”
(Long pause & her looking at him with that blank Halle stare)
Halle: “I want you to make me feel good??”
“I am convinced that her inability to act is the reason why she can’t maintain a relationship. I find myself every now and then having to ACT in my relationship. This isn’t being dishonest. I just find that sometimes the small things can get a pass and you just ACT your way around them”
hmmm. good point
Gabriel: “Babe…you want to fool around a little?”
(Long pause & her looking at him with that blank Halle stare)
Halle: “I want you to make me feel good??”
hilarious and at the same time an erection killer…….the likes of which only a Halle “Burry” could undo
I’m really surprised it lasted as long as it did. I thought it was obvious he was there for the purpose of knocking her up and a guaranteed date for a couple of events.
Are we talking about Steve Nash’s looks are his wallet, because his wallet can get it. I’m just saying (no basketball wives).
hilarity
Y’all are f*cking hilarious. Seriously. I’m sitting here at the computer laughing for real, instead of just typing “lol” and smirking like normal. Love it! Keep doing your thing!
welcome and sh*t (i think)
Love is rare, very ellusive for most, it finds you, its even harder to hold once found..its like although it remains in the heart infinitely for certain people, you have to enjoy it to the fullest while them peoples are around, because thats the part that seems fleeting……Halle will be alright.

sounds like someone hijacked a hallmark truck this morning
LLS, no honey, just truth discovered for self LOL..
* sidenote* Three kinds of love, Philos, Eros, and Agape.
You can be in relationships without being in love. you can have a good relationship with just a friendship sort of love(Philos), but most want the passion of (Eros) and cannot be satisfied until they feel the fiyah…all three kinds of love intertwined like a rope is where its at though, Agape = unconditional love, the kind most have for fam kids etc the kind GOD has for us…..odds much better with all three.
If Halle really wanted to keep a man….she could. Maybe she hasn’t found what she’s looking for/Maybe she’s difficult to be with/Maybe she’s just unlucky in love. Relationships are difficult. Some people choose to stick it out….and some don’t (especially when they have options). But I think it’s unfair to be so harsh on her relationship choices. I find it hard to believe (given the failed marriages and abuse) that she is completely careless. I know many people who thought they picked the right one, dated/married for years and all of a sudden……it’s over (for a plethora of reasons). Bottom line is: Relationships will always be a crap shoot no matter what your method of choosing a SO.
I’m pretty sure Halle would fair about average or better, if everyone’s relationship history was on public record for open viewing LLS. Folk like to go in on Halle as if.. alot of folk record is far worse, trust ,you see it everyday!
@Orange Star Happy Hunting
Exactly!
So can we please put to bed how dating white guys is somehow “better” dude is like dudes from around the way just another “baby fatha”. I aint saying having the child by Benet would have been better but he would have been killed had hit it and quit it!!!
my two pesos:
I think Halle’s problem is secretly whatever caused her to think that she would be happy/get more bread, by looking less ethnic……to me, that is self-abnegation, which can only lead to sadness (Michael would concur: Anyone — Tyson, Jordan, Jackson Action, pack guns, ridiculous …i digress)
Do I secretly hope Halle’s next baby maker is one of the homies?
Will I be surprised when the next beau for Halle is not a brother? nope. Do I ask myself questions to further elucidate points? damn straight.
Halle in search of something….hope she finds it, and happiness along the way
Just sayin…..
Nothing like a well placed Biggie reference to make my day
Truthfully, I always saw old dude as just a sperm donor. halle was gettin up there in age and everyone knows she wanted to have kids. I see his time in her life as time to knock her up, bond with the baby and then let her be on her merry way. I don’t think this means Halle is crazy she just knows what she wants.
Exactly, I think with the white boy she just wanted a baby by someone half way decent, probably without the strong emotions/complications/risks associated with being in love…..a route alot of black women may have to consider if they want kids….
Has anyone every heard Gabriel speak? I’ve never heard his voice before…ever!
Not I said the cat
Daaaamn, y’all go AT IT on this blog! Diggin’ it
As for Halle, I feel bad for her. Everyone is gonna assume it’s her, & maybe it is but it must be difficult to be judged so publicly. Hope she finds last love @ some point…
Hilarious….Love your blog!!!
