Halle Berry raises major eyebrows for her beautiful sensuality lensed by Ruven Afanador and styled by Deborah Waknin for the March 2011 issue of Ebony Magazine. The actress talks about her custody battle with Gabriel Aubry over daughter Nahla, which is mired down in very series arguments over Nahla’s racial identity.
Halle Berry says in her Ebony interview that Hahla is black because of the one-drop rule. I daresay we’re all black under that rule. Marcia Dawkins writes for Huff Po Halle Berry and Nahla: Not So Mixed, Not So Happy.

Lou Schoof Delights In Tom Schirmacher Images For Harper's Bazaar Netherlands
Model Lou Schoof covers the July-August 2017 issue of Harper's Bazaar Netherlands, styled by Sarah Gore Reeves in whimsical looks from Fendi, Stella McCartney, Celine and more. Photographer Tom Schirmacher captures the famous bob who reflected on her childhood in this 2017 Interview magazine chat.
"When I was a child, I compared a lot to people around me and wished I could live their lives," recalls German model Lou Schoof. "My father said: ‘You would have to live their whole identity—don't just think about one aspect. Would you rather have their family, their health situation, their habits, their friends, their schedules, their outlook, their social life?' If you look closely, no existence is flawless and easy," she continues. "With distance, most things seem attractive. I would rather work on my own life than chase after others."
