Two days before her 58th birthday, Halle Berry showed up at the opening of The Union in a very daring sheer dress. Her co-star, Mark Wahlberg, praised her look, saying only she could pull off such a bold outfit.
However, not everyone was impressed. Some critics online called her “low class” for hugging a married man while wearing such revealing clothing.
Halle Berry and Mark Wahlberg star together in *The Union*, a comedy thriller that came out on Netflix on August 16. Wahlberg, 53, plays a construction worker named Mike, who gets involved in a world of espionage thanks to his high school sweetheart, played by Berry.
Halle Berry, 58, was thrilled to finally work with her long-time friend Mark Wahlberg. She told The Hollywood Reporter, “When this happened, I thought, ‘Wow, this is the thing I didn’t know that I needed.’ I’ve known Mark for about 30 years, and working with him was like going home.”
Mark Wahlberg also spoke highly of Berry to Entertainment Tonight. He said, “I’ve always been a big fan of hers. Working with Halle is easy and a joy. Any guy or gal would want to impress her, so it was easy for me to follow her around like a puppy.”

Berry also attended the premiere with her 16-year-old daughter Nahla, who was thrilled to meet Wahlberg. Berry shared with People, “I got cool points when I introduced my daughter to Mark because she loves *Daddy’s Home*. It was the first time in my career that she said, ‘Oh, you know Mark Wahlberg? Okay, you’re cool.’”
Critics and fans had mixed reactions to Halle Berry’s outfit at the premiere. Some were critical of her choice, saying, “Low class hugging him dressed like that and he’s married.” Others felt the dress was too busy with lace but admired her overall appearance, with comments like, “She looks amazing, but I’m not feeling the style of her dress. I hope I look like this at 57, though. Unreal.”

Fleetwood Mac star Stevie Nicks finally reveals what life changing advice Prince gave to her
She spent the night working on a song that would end up becoming the lead single from Nicks’ 1983 solo album “The Wild Heart” and the single went to No. 5 in the U.S. Billboard Top 100.
After writing her song ‘Stand Back” she asked for a meeting with Prince and 20 minutes later they were introduced to each other for the first time in a studio in Los Angeles.
Nicks said Prince listened to her song, inspired by his “Little Red Corvette” classic and went straight over to the keyboard to start adding his own parts.
He then got up, gave her a hug and left.
“He spoiled me for every band I’ve ever had because nobody can exactly re-create — not even with two piano players —what Prince did all by his little self,” she said in the book “Rock Lives.”
Nicks said as much as she admired Prince, she avoided a romantic relationship with him because she appreciated their musical connection.

Nicks said as much as she admired Prince, she avoided a romantic relationship with him because she appreciated their musical connection.
“I really wanted a musical relationship, and I had smartened up, even then,” she explained. “You’ll break up and never speak again. But he wasn’t interested in just that.”
In turn, Prince’s “When Doves Cry” was inspired by Nicks’ song “Edge of Seventeen.”
The Fleetwood Mac star said that she was heavily into drugs when she collaborated with Prince.
“The eighties were pretty bad drug years for me,” Stevie Nicks told The New Yorker. “And Prince was not very into drugs. And the fact that he ended up being on a lot of pain medication just blows my mind, because he was so against it, and he gave me so many lectures about it.”
The “Gypsy” singer said Prince warned her about her drug use. “I’d talk to him every once in a while on the phone, and we’d talk for hours, and he’d go, ‘You gotta be careful, Stevie.’ And I’d go, ‘I know, I know.’”
Following his death Nicks said, “My sadness is that he did die of an accidental drug overdose. He’s up there looking down, saying to me, ‘Sweetie, I can’t believe it happened either.’”
It seems Prince was right to be worried at the time as Nicks ended up in rehab twice. The singer checked into the Betty Ford clinic in 1986 for her cocaine addiction, and then went to another hospital in 1993 for her addiction to Klonopin, which Nicks said she was over-prescribed.
But in 1986, Nicks spoke to a plastic surgeon about her nose. The doctor told her she had burned a coin-sized hole in her nose from her cocaine abuse.
“I said, ‘What do you think about my nose?’” the singer recalled. “And he said, ‘Well, I think the next time you do a hit of cocaine, you could drop dead.’”
Following her conversation with the doctor, Nicks decided to check into the Betty Ford clinic. The move helped turn her life around and arguably saved her career and her life.
Thank goodness she had a conversation that set her on the right path. It sounds like it came at just the right time.
It is, however, a tragedy that Prince couldn’t get off the harmful opioids that he was on. Nicks’ story just confirms the musical genius he really was and how generous he was with his talent.
He will always be a musical legend, missed by millions.
