Halle Berry's Movie Was the Last Straw in Custody Battle, Says Source

Halle Berry's latest movie was supposed to be the big-budget romantic comedy New Year's Eve – but for the actress and her ex, Gabriel Aubry, the feel-good film may have been the final straw in their already-strained custody arrangement over their 2 ½-year-old daughter Nahla.
According to a source close to Berry, the actress's movie contract included compensation for Aubry to accompany her and Nahla to New York City for about two weeks of filming. But when Aubry decided not to go, says the source, Berry was forced to abruptly pull out of the film. She has since been replaced by Katherine Heigl.
Berry, 44, who has a nanny, currently shares custody of Nahla with Aubry. She pulled out of the New Line production not because she wouldn't have childcare help but because she was concerned about leaving Nahla in L.A. while she filmed in N.Y.C., claims the source.

Those close to Gabriel Aubry say this Canadian model has been forced to take Halle Berry to court because he fears her jealous rage over his dating life will result in less time spent with the couple's daughter, Nahla.

As reps for the two sides exchange public barbs, it's been unclear why Berry says she "has serious concerns" over Aubrey's interactions with the two-year old. Until now.

For more on Halle Berry's battle with Gabriel Aubry, read this People cover story.

In the latest issue of People, Aubry's former business partner, Stephane Bibeau, describes his ex-friend as "vindictive" and says: "Once they broke up, he became verbally threatening to Halle Berry."

Insiders tell the magazine and TMZ these threats included the use of the "N word" and other slurs.

Explains one friend of Aubry's:

"From the beginning, Halle Berry kind of had the upper hand because she was essentially supporting all of them for the most part. Gabriel never liked how that felt. Their split was tough because they're both so involved in raising Nahla, and neither ever wanted to give that up."

Aretha Franklin: Halle Berry was 'not my only choice'

Aretha Franklin: Halle Berry was 'not my only choice'

Actress Halle Berry arrives at the Golden Globe Awards Sunday, Jan. 16, 2011, in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Aretha Franklin had said she would like Halle Berry to play her in a biopic being written now.

But Halle Berry was modest in an interview with E! during the Golden Globes, saying, "If I could carry a tune, I'd consider it. Someone should tell Aretha that I can't do her justice."

Now Franklin has responded to that, issuing a response to Wendy Williams on Monday, saying:

"I would have liked Halle Berry to portray the older Aretha in the upcoming biopic of my life based on my memoir Aretha: From These Roots. She was my first, but not my only choice.

Everything is subject to negotiation and she shouldn't underestimate her own talent. There are a number of other leading ladies out there that can definitely handle the role."

She continued: "I never expected Halle Berry to sing, she's an actress, not a singer. Many actors have portrayed vocalists by lip-syncing to the artist's original recordings."

Williams put her two cents in, suggesting Angela Bassett, Jennifer Hudson, Queen Latifah or Taraji P. Henson could handle the role. What do you say?

Gabriel Aubry Files For Physical And Legal Custody Of Nahla

Gabriel Aubry Files For Physical And Legal Custody Of Nahla

I’m confused here. I was under the impression that Gabriel Aubry and Halle Berry have stayed on good terms for the sake of their daughter, Nahla. There doesn’t seem to be much animosity between the two of them. I know they’ve had a few custody disputes, but honestly, they sounded more like scheduling conflicts over who Nahla would stay with while Halle worked and I never thought that would amount to anything too serious.

But this doesn’t sound good. Things could get ugly between them. Gabriel filed a petition to be legally recognized as Nahla’s father.

A source says,

Gabriel , who split with the 44-year-old star in April 2010, is also seeking to establish physical and legal custody of the child, whose surname is already registered as Aubry.

Yikes. I hope that Gabriel and Halle can keep it civil for Nahla’s sake. They are both her parents and they both deserve to spend time with their daughter.
