Halle Berry doubles down on feud with Drake, claims she refused permission to use slime photo
Halle Berry is still mad at Drake for using an image of her getting slimed at the 2012 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards as the cover art for his new single.
After a fan asked why she was so “angry” since the photo “belongs to Getty Images,” the actress claimed the Canadian rapper first asked her for permission and she refused.
“Because he asked me and I said NO, that’s why,” Berry, 57, responded in his Instagram comments.
“Why ask if you’re going to do what you want to do!” That was the fucking you for me. Not cool, you know? ❤️.
Drake’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The “Catwoman” star’s clarification comes two days after she criticized the Grammy-winning artist for using the image to promote her song with SZA, “Slime You Out.”
Berry expressed his disapproval by posting a message on Instagram on Friday that read: “Sometimes you have to be the biggest…even if you’re a woman!
“[Drake] I didn’t get my permission,” the Oscar winner responded to a user asking what she thought of Drake’s cover.
” It’s not cool. I thought better of him!
The “Bruised” actress further addressed the situation with the “Nonstop” rapper, commenting, “When the people you look up to disappoint you, you have to be the bigger person and move on!”
