Born August 14, 1968, in Cleveland,
Ohio, Halle is a stunning model, a celebrity entertainer and a star actress.
Halle
easily won Miss Ohio, Miss Teen All-American, and in 1986, was first runner-up
in the Miss USA pageant. She was the first African American to represent the U.S.
in the Miss World competition in London. Halle attended Cleveland's Cuyahoga Community
College, where she studied broadcast journalism. Halle abandoned her idea of a
career in news reporting however, choosing to wholeheartedly devote her time to
a career in entertainment. She first moved to Chicago, then New York City, where
she found work as a catalog model.
In
a short romance, Halle was involved in a stormy relationship with "Jungle
Fever" costar Wesley Snipes. In 1993, she married Atlanta Braves outfielder
David Justice, and three years later, Berry filed for a divorce, which was finalized
in 1997. After a nasty divorce from Justice, Halle became secretly engaged to
Eric Benét, a jazz musician, in August of 1999. The engagement was announced
in December of that year. Halle introduced Benét as her "husband"
at the public unveiling of her official Web site, Hallewood, in February 2001,
while the couple actually wed two weeks before at an undisclosed tropical location.
Halle has also been introduced as the new Bond Girl, and we are sure to see her
in a very sexy role in the near future.
