Van Hunt’s tribute to his girlfriend Halle Berry gave fans an inside look into her goofy side.
The Academy Award-winning actress turned 57 years old on Monday, Aug. 14, and her boyfriend of nearly three years decided to celebrate this new age by sharing several photos of Berry in various masks on Instagram.
In his 10-photo carousel, the “Monster’s Ball” actress can be seen wearing a few masks for beauty purposes while others were worn for amusement. She is also seen rocking different makeup looks, one even included a full-blown clown face.
“This is the woman i love,” Hunt wrote. “Behind the mask she makes me laugh til i hurt i see her behind the mask i always have happy bday, my love.”
Berry found her way into the “Seconds of Pleasure” singer’s comment section, where she thanked him for loving her wholeheartedly.
“Thank you Van for always letting me be ME and loving me anyway !”

Five years later Berry welcomed Maceo Rober Martinez to the world. The Emmy winner shares her 9-year-old son with her ex-husband, Oliver Martinez.
