Berry slammed the rapper for using a photograph of her slimed at the 2012 Kids’ Choice Awards for his new track, “Slime You Out.”“Sometimes you have to be the bigger guy…even if you’re a woman!” the actress initially shared on her social media.When asked what she thought of the cover art by a fan, she added: “That’s not cool.

I thought better of him! When people you admire disappoint you you have to be the bigger person and move on!”Drake has always had a thing for Berry, even admitting in September 2013 that he would date her if he got the chance.“I don’t know who the next strong female is, but I’m ready for a strong counterpart to share all these experiences with,” he said during an interview on HOT 97. “There’s nobody out here.

You have to point me in the right direction.”When Angie Martinez brought up Berry, Drake was quick to admit his infatuation. “You seem to have a fixation on Halle Berry, but she’s already preggo,” the host said, referring to Berry expecting her second child, first with then-husband Olivier Martinez.“I do.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was unfortunate,” he replied. “Like, being with her? 100 percent. Of course. What do you mean? I feel like she would be here right now sitting right there. … She would be here turnt to the max.”The Oscar winner and Olivier, who share son Maceo, filed for divorce in 2015 after two years of marriage.In August, they finally finalized their divorce settlement, with Berry agreeing to pay Olivier $8,000 a month in child support.
