Pregnant actress Halle Berry - who won an Oscar for her role in the 2001 Marc Forster film 'Monster's Ball' - as well as a Golden Globe for TV movie Introducing Dorothy Dandridge; and has a star on the Hollywood walk of fame, has revealed her proudest moments.
On her proudest moment, Halle, 41, said "I've had many in my career. I have an Oscar and now I've a star on Hollywood Boulevard. I kissed it and then someone told me crackheads and drug addicts shoot up and do their drugs on the sidewalk. I was like 'Do you have to remind me? I'm having a moment."
In September last year, Berry - who confirmed that she was three months pregnant and expecting a boy, also revealed what wining an Oscar meant to her "It just meant on that day my industry said 'You did good' if I don't ever win another one, it wouldn't mean I wasn't good," she said. "You have to it with a grain of salt . That's why after winning, I resisted the feeling of: 'Now I only have to do great parts.' I got here by wanting to learn and grow and have fun. In Monster's Ball I went nude, which was really scary, but I took the chance to try something new and I want to keep that approach to my career."
When asked if she likes who she works with now, the 'Perfect Stranger' star, said: "I still want to work with Denzel Washington. I'm hoping that one day the right script will come along and Denzel will give me a call."
And Halle - who played 'Catwoman' in the hit 2004 movie of the same name, spoke about her feelings towards the movie: "I thought it was one of the best movies ever," she said. "Well, it was definitely different from any other I had seen. It was about a woman feeling empowered. I thought that we needed a better villain, but I was outnumbered in that area. You just never know how people are going to respond. I thought that Monster's Ball was going to end my career. And look what happened. You just never know."
And on her relationship with her mother, Berry added: "I'm extremely close to my mother even though I left home when I was 17. She now lives a few blocks away from me in LA, which is great because it means we can have coffee together in the morning. If I'm going on a trip, I can just run over and pack her bag so she can come with me."
