Sex scenes can be many things, but danger shouldn’t be one of them. Clearly, Halle Berry didn’t get the memo as her attempts to improvise nearly failed.
Many actors have suffered from the Oscar curse over the years, and while it’s safe to say she was one of them after her historic Best Actress win, she ended up taking the stage at the Razzies to ring three years later Catwoman piece of crap, he shouldn’t kill his victims.
However, it might have happened if not for a co-star who jumped into action and saved Berry from possible suffocation, all because her attempts to be sexy fell flat, which would have been a terrible addition to the most prolific and successful period of her career.
Starring in a Bryan Singer film X-Menwhich helped rescue the superhero genre from the brink of irrelevance, she continued it with Dominic Senna. swordfisha film that far fewer people would have cared about if it weren’t for the publicity generated by the star’s first-ever topless scene, which, by the way, she wasn’t paid an extra $500,000 to film.
Afterwards, Berry was in Oscar-winning form in Monster Balland she was so good at her job that she felt the need to remind everyone that she didn’t actually fuck Billy Bob Thornton in the movie, because for some reason the actors still have to point out that it’s all fake and not real on set.
Next was a controversial appearance as a “Bond girl” in Die againwhere Berry did a great job as Jinx in 007’s landmark 20th adventure, released on the franchise’s 40th anniversary and becoming the highest-grossing entry in the series, which could have been a resounding set of positives if not for the fact that the film was pretty crap.
Her character was supposed to get a spin-off that was eventually scrapped, but Berry wouldn’t have gone even that far if Pierce Brosnan hadn’t rushed to her aid when their bedroom antics nearly escalated from raunchy movie to snuff film.

“I did a scene with Pierce Brosnan in Die again“, she recalled. “I had to be so sexy and try to seduce him with a fig, and then I choked on it. And he had to get up and play Heimlich. So not sexy means not sexy.”
On the other hand, not everyone is truly saved by James Bond, and as a result, Brosnan “will always be one of my favorite people in the entire world.” A word of warning: never add figs to your boudoir, because if they nearly took Halle Berry’s life, you have no chance of surviving.
