Halle Berry To Present Video As Evidence For Move To France

Posted byBy Popular Critic | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Halle Berry and her 4-year old daughter Nahla are hoping to make Paris their permanent home. Olivier Martinez, Halle’s fiance is already a citizen of France and will help his new family settle in nicely. There’s just one snag, Nahla’s father Gabriel Aubry lives in Los Angeles.

The Oscar winning actress is hoping to convince a judge that the paparazzi stateside is brutal and compromises her security while raising Nahla.

TMZ spoke with several paparazzi agencies and discovered that Halle’s lawyer, Stephen Kolodny, has been hunting down video showing her being terrorized by overly aggressive photographers trying to get a high-paying shot.

According to TMZ, the trial will be a sort of “video presentation” that will include the incident when she had to call the police in Beverly Hill so she could get out of a restaurant with her daughter.

Earlier this year, a judge ordered Halle to pay Aubry $20,000 a month in child support, even though Nahla loves with her mother.

Berry, who wants to move to Paris with fiance Olivier Martinez and has even shopped for schools in Paris, is assured of having more of a safe buffer in Paris, where the paparazzi operate by a different set of rules.

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
