Halle Berry tripped and fell flat on her face yesterday, but the Oscar winning actress found the humor in her embarrassing misstep, Media Take Out has learned.
Halle was invited to speak at a popular charity event, Looking Beyond LA. As she was walking to the podium to say a few words, she tripped on the steps and fell. And when we say fell, we mean she was laying flat on her face. How embarrassing. Look:
Halle seemed to take it all in stride. She actually posted video of her fall onto her Instagram account – and included some pretty hilarious edits to it.
Halle established herself as one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood during the 2000s. She won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance of a struggling widow in the romantic drama Monster’s Ball (2001), becoming both the only Black woman and the only woman of color to have won the award. She took on high-profile roles such as Storm in four installments of the X-Men film series (2000–2014), the henchwoman of a robber in the thriller Swordfish (2001), Bond girl Jinx in Die Another Day (2002), and the title role in the much-derided Catwoman (2004), the latter for which she received US$12.5 million.
A varying critical and commercial reception followed in subsequent years, with Perfect Stranger (2007), Cloud Atlas (2012) and The Call (2013) being among her notable film releases in that period. She launched a production company, 606 Films, in 2014 and has been involved in the production of a number of projects in which she performed, such as the CBS science fiction series Extant (2014–2015). She appeared in the action films Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017) and John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum (2019) and made her directorial debut with the Netflix drama Bruised (2020).
Berry has been a Revlon spokesmodel since 1996. She was formerly married to baseball player David Justice, singer-songwriter Eric Benét, and actor Olivier Martinez. She has two children, one with Martinez and another with model Gabriel Aubry.
