She was once Miss America, Miss World, or berlin and Oscar queen; she visited China during the Shanghai International Film Festival and won the Outstanding Contribution to Film Award at the Shanghai International Film Festival; she was an uncompromising basketball fan and a die-hard fan of the Los Angeles Lakers and Sparks: she had "Hollywood's highest bidding breasts", but love often made her prank; she was repeatedly named "The 50 Most Beautiful Women of the Year" and was named "Man Gang" magazine" many times. Topping the 100 Sexiest Women in the World in 2003 and first among the most beautiful people in People magazine, she is also the face of the well-known makeup brand "Revlon" and has successfully launched a number of perfumes or names after herself... She is Harley Berry, a Hollywood star known as the "Black Pearl."
<h1>Beautiful Yoze acting</h1>
Harley Berry was born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1966. Her name comes from the Halle Mansion in Cleveland. Harley's father, a former nurse at a hospital, had African ancestry: her mother also worked in the hospital, and she was a nurse in a psychiatric hospital, Caucasian.
Harley's parents divorced when she was 4 years old, and she has lived with her mother ever since. In high school, she was an active member of the school, and after graduation, she attended Caihoga Falls Community College in Cleveland.
Due to her natural beauty, Harley Berry began participating in beauty pageants when she was a student. In 1985, she represented Ohio in the Miss Under 20 contest and was selected as Miss Teen Usa. The following year, she participated in the Miss America pageant, that is, she was elected "Miss Ohie" and "Miss America".
After becoming an idol, Harley Berry naturally embarked on the road of modeling, then turned to the film and television industry, and successfully stepped into Hollywood with the beautiful stepping stone.
With miss America's figure and beauty to be a star, it is rare to be regarded as a "vase". But Harley Berry's "vase" is powerful, as seen in her first film, The Jungle. In the film, directed by Spike Lee, Harley plays Vivian, who plays veteran black film star Samuel L. Jackson.
In 1992, she gained attention by playing Angela, a young professional woman, in Reginald Hadrin's "Stealing Hearts." In 1996, Harley was invited to participate in the filming of Stuart Brad's action film Supreme Crisis, and she played with Kurt Russell and Stephen Siegel, who had the title of "unkillable tough guy", which left a deep impression on the audience. The film was a box office success, and Harley gained a foothold in Hollywood.
Incredibly, when the producers of the series "Life and Death Speed" invited Harley to play the heroine, she gave up the opportunity that others had to fight for to break their heads. Fortunately, Harley was really lucky, and she soon received another acclaim through the film "The Devil's Deal". In 1998, Harley teamed up with the famous Warren Beatty to make a name for herself in the film Election Order, where she was named one of the "50 Most Beautiful Women of the Year."
The following year, Harley continued to star in the cable channel's self-produced film "Red Face blood and tears", which depicted the struggle story of the first black actress to be nominated for an Oscar, Rossi Dandesić. Harley's performance was so moving that she won both the Golden Globe and the Emmy Award for Best Actress, and shared the "Star of 99" awarded by the American Association for the Advancement of the Rights of Colored with black star Denzel Washington.
The animated film X-Men propelled Harley's acting career to its peak. Harley's cool style in the film — silvery hair, eyes instantly turning white when she does it — was loved by animation fans around the world, and the film created a myth at the box office.
"Dance of the Death Row" is the film that won Harley an Oscar for Best Actress. In this extremely low-cost, heavy and dull film, Harley attacked naked, boldly performed, and conquered the Oscar jury with a delicate and layered performance. At the awards ceremony, Harley was so excited that she almost lost her voice: "Tonight I won the Academy Award for Best Actress as a black actor, which is a new page in the history of the Oscars, and a door closed to black actresses has been opened." ”
<h1>Low key to China</h1>
In June 2009, Harley accepted the invitation of the Shanghai International Film Festival Organizing Committee to visit China and accepted the "Film Outstanding Contribution Award" awarded to her by the film festival.
She walked out of Pudong International Airport 10 minutes earlier than the plane arrived scheduled, wearing blue jeans and dragging her suitcase with her own, accompanied by managers who had followed her for more than 20 years. With no assistants, no makeup artists, no bodyguards, the Black Pearl simply came.
On behalf of the organizing committee of the film festival, Jin Yuxi spent more than two months in contact, and finally invited Harley Berry to participate in the Shanghai International Film Festival. Yusai told reporters that Harley did not make any requests for celebrity big names, "She is very well-behaved and does things exactly according to the arrangement." Although she took a plane for more than ten hours, she hardly had any rest and came straight to our party... She's very civilian."
In Shanghai, Harley stayed for 36 hours. Like other Hollywood stars who went to Shanghai, she went shopping in Xintiandi and the City God Temple. Many tourists recognized her and asked her to sign, she was smiling, and those who came did not refuse.
Talking about the impression of Shanghai in China, Harley said that Shanghai is so beautiful, modern and prosperous, which has left a deep impression on me, and I think I have fallen in love with it. She hopes to learn more about Chinese culture and work more with Chinese directors. Because this will make you "grow faster".
<h1>Hollywood curse</h1>
There is a recognized spell in Hollywood that any movie star who wins an Oscar will fall into a trough within 3 years. Such is true of Nicole Kidman, and Harley Berry is even more iconic. The first film she starred in after winning the award was 007 "Death in a Day". As the 40th anniversary of the 007 series and the 20th film, which totaled $142 million in total investment, Harley became the most upscale "Bond Girl". Although Harley managed to make herself the most elegant black "Bond Girl" in history, then, this flashy and real vase role surprised the critics.
Immediately after, she starred in a bad film "Catwoman", which was full of bad reviews, for which she won the Golden Plum Award for Worst Actress. No Hollywood star would take the initiative to accept ridicule, but Harley was willing to "accept the award". At the award ceremony, she held the Oscar Little Golden Man in her left hand and the Golden Plum Award in her right hand, and confessed her heart to everyone: "My mother told me that if you don't know how to be a loser, you can never be a winner." ”
Harley, who confessed to her failure after success, could not find a direction to continue to succeed for a while, so she made a wise arrangement for herself - to have a child.
<h1>Emotionally defeated and defeated</h1>
Harley has had two failed marriages, the first with baseball player David Justis and the second with singer Eric Bennett. As soon as her first marriage ended, Harley was in a serious car accident with more than 20 stitches on her head. To make matters worse, Harley was even charged with fleeing the scene of the accident and was fined $9,000 by U.S. police and fined 3 years in prison and 200 hours of community service. Harley admits that she has been greatly affected since then.
However, these effects are temporary. What really saddened Harley was that neither of these two failed marriages had brought her children. As she grew older, her maternal nature as a woman became more and more effective for Harley, and her desire to be a mother increased day by day, and she even expressed her desire to go to the artificial sperm bank to buy sperm so that she could become a mother.
In an interview with the German weekly TV Movie, she said: "The failure of the past two marriages has had an impact on me and made me lose confidence in love. And the failure to bring me children in both marriages was particularly frustrating to me. I long to find a man who loves me and I love to accompany me so that I will have a child for us. I really, really want to be a mother. If I had been alone before the age of 40, I would have had to resort to sperm banking in order to fulfill my wish to become a mother. ”
Fortunately, Harley's desire to be a mother did not rely on an artificial sperm bank, and Canada's chief supermodel Briel Aubrey fulfilled her motherhood dream. In 2006, Harley met and began dating Brie, who was 9 years younger than herself, while filming commercials for Versace. Two years later, the two welcomed their daughter. At that time, Harley said with great joy: "We are more like people who are married— couples, and our life together is more important than that marriage certificate." ”
However, in April 2011, the "more like husband and wife" man and woman chose to part ways. A few months after the breakup, Harley approached a lawyer to discuss custody of her daughter and other financial issues. According to insiders, the breakup was first proposed by Brie, who at first felt that the age difference of 9 years was not a problem, and Harley was the most beautiful girlfriend since he was dragged, so he loved her very much. But slowly he felt the obstacle of sister-brother love, so he began to pay attention to other women, perhaps he had already taken a fancy to one and wanted to develop with that one, so he proposed to Harley to break up. Despite this, Brie openly stated that he would still respect and love Harley, and praised her as the most beautiful and special woman he ever knew.
After this blow, will Harley despair of love completely? Not necessarily! Media reporters captured Harley on vacation with her family on Malibu Beach with a gold emerald ring on her left ring finger. At the time, Harley was having lunch with Martinez. Olivier Martinez and Harley came together by working together on the film Dark Tide. The first time the two were exposed in front of the media was during the intense filming of "Dark Tide" in South Africa. Later, Harley introduced Martinez to her mother. One is Hollywood's famous sexy "black pearl", one is called the "French version of Brad Pitt", and Harley, who has suffered from love, seems to have ushered in her own willow dark flowers.
