Halle Links Motherhood to Plum Roles

by celebuzz on May. 30, 2008 02:14 PM / 5 Comments

Halle Berry feels that her two-month-old Nahla has not only brought fulfillment on a personal level but the tyke has the potential to help the Academy Award-winning actress expand her career possibilities.

The Monster's Ball star said, "I feel having a baby will open up a whole new world for me. I think I'll actually find better roles, because I've gotten past being the ingenue and sex symbol."

It will probably also help that Berry has decided to be more selective about future film roles, choosing to work less and spend more time with model boyfriend Gabriel Aubry and their newborn daughter.

However, still no word on whether or not Berry sees a wedding in her near future.

But at the very least, maybe this baby will keep the actress from venturing into Catwoman 2: Further Adventures in Leather and Spandex.

Quotables /

“Halle Berry isn't concerned that her status as a new mom will harm her career choices. In fact, the Oscar winner believes that her baby will actually present her with acting opportunities.

Totally. Now, she can play edgy MILFs. Just kidding. I actually think she's a good actress, but seriously, what if Catwoman had a baby...”

Socialite Life

“We spotted Halle Berry going into the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills yesterday. The new mom was looking fantastic in a blue and purple floral print dress, hardly showing any signs of fatigue despite the fact she has a newborn at home!”

“Now a mom to two-month-old Nahla, the 41-year-old actress said, “I feel having a baby will open up a whole new world for me."”
