Halle Berry Still Can't Shake Cat-Stink
Halle Berry has managed to turn a regrettable post-Oscar career move the cinematic equivalent of scoopable litter known as Catwoman and turn it into a cottage industry of award collecting and self-mocking good PR. First she shows up at last year's Razzies to collect her award, announcing, "I want to thank Warner Brothers for casting me in this piece of shit." Now, those ivy and crimson-clad cross dressers of Harvard's Hasty Pudding club are still flogging a dead feline:
Halle Berry had to write "I will not make 'Catwoman II'" on a chalkboard four times Thursday in order to earn her pudding pot as Harvard's Hasty Pudding woman of the year. [...]
Before she was given the traditional brass pudding pot during a roast at Harvard's Hasty Pudding Theater, Berry danced suggestively with a Harvard student dressed like a French poodle, which Berry's presenter's dubbed Dogman. [...]Earlier Thursday, Berry rode in a silver Bentley convertible in the traditional parade through Harvard Square, flanked by two male Harvard students dressed in drag.
Berry, no stranger to heavily stubbled drag queens from her days on Lee Tamahori's Die Another Day set, has proven herself to be more than a good sport. Let's hope that with her final waltz of humiliation with "Dogman," she can finally bury her big mistake in the backyard and get back to the business of making other crappy movies for which she'll later publicly apologize.
