Halle Berry, an American actress, former fashion model, and beauty queen. Berry has received Emmy and Golden Globe awards for
Introducing Dorothy Dandridge and an Academy Award for Best Actress in 2001 for her performance in Monster's Ball, becoming
the first and, as of 2009, only woman of African-American descent to have won the award for Best Actress. She is one of the
highest-paid actresses in Hollywood and also a Revlon spokeswoman.She has also been involved in the production side of
several of her films.
The breathtaking Halle Berry made history as the first black woman to win a Best Actress Oscar for 2002's Monster's Ball.
Before taking home her historic Academy Award, Berry's career was a balance of blockbusters (Die Another Day, X-Men) and
critically acclaimed dramas (Spike Lee's Jungle Fever and Introducing Dorothy Dandridge).
Despite her professional success and stunning beauty, she failed to find lasting love: she divorced Atlanta Braves baseball
player David Justice and singer Eric Benét–both of whom cheated on her. But in her 40s, Berry found happiness with model
Gabriel Aubry. In March 2008, she welcomed her daughter Nahla–mere months before being named Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive at
42.
