Halle Berry & Olivier Martinez Freak Out At Paps

Last night, Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez returned from Hawaii to find lots of paps waiting for them at the airport. A long flight and the notoriously short tempers of both Halle and Olivier led to one minute of chaos which was captured on film.

Rage monsters! I wonder how much longer she can convince people she's a victim.

Jeneral said...

Some of these paps deserve to be punched in the face. Their behavior is so far out of line. They escalate these encounters just hoping for a reaction. I hate to see them abuse their first amendment rights.

RedHeadMed said...

CRIPES. That's what they have to deal with when they come back from a long plane ride from Hawaii? All those flashes were blinding. Poor kid, no wonder she never looks happy when she's with her mother. I'd look miserable too if that's what I had to deal with.

Jeneral said...

I'd go rage monster too if people were swarming around my kid like that. I'd be screaming back the fuck off like a crazy lady!

Priscilla said...

I don't much care for her but that was ridiculous behavior on the part of the paps. I thought she handled it rather well, actually, especially shoving him in the car.

lilo723 said...

I just don't think it is fair to put those cameras in that little girl's face. She didn't ask for fame. I would've done exactly what Halle did. She's a mama bear protecting her baby.

MISCH said...

That's odd she's not usually bothered like that it almost looks like they were waiting...wonder who else was due in...

annabella said...

I don't see how anyone can blame this one on halle or call her a 'rage monster' because paps got into her child's face w/cameras. seriously people have some sympathy.

as Jeneral said, their behavior is out of line and they should not be allowed to get so close to them. the airport in LA should have better security because what they have seems to be a tragedy waiting to happen. and I don't mean oliver martinez punching a pap, I mean a child getting hurt. which could easily happen when all of the paps are allowed to get so close.

remember - this is just about making a buck off of the child. that's gross.

nevermindthat said...

Halle will soon be claiming that she has yet again been abused at the end of another failed relationship. Boy, she knows how to pick them but I am not looping Gabe in with this angry, impulsive son of a bitch.

Della said...

1st if I knew my child was going to be bombarded with that many flash bulbs I would make them wear dark sunglasses. -like she doesn't know it's going to happen.

2nd- that boyfriend is trouble waiting to happen. She needs to dump him now before the violence happens again. Wonder how they explained Gabrielle's face to Nalah(?) last time?

3rd- Halle I think they can see that you have a child. Just shut up and get into the van. These people don't care if you have a child or not. The papps are scum but that doesn't change anything. You have millions in the bank, this is the trade off. DEAL WITH IT!

Audrey said...

We are part of the problem. Enty pays for the pics that are taken by assholes like that. We click on the links, which pays Enty, which he then uses to buy more pictures.

Yes, it sucks, but let's get our heads out of the sand. This is the ugly part of the gossip blog/magazine machine and we are part of it.

auntliddy said...

well, for once, I totally agree with Halle. Jesus christ, its 3 people coming down the stairs! and a little girl who was already tired. Just back off, and I thought she handled it well. I may have been even rougher. And rage monsters? I think not- check The Penns, dad and son for that.

crila16 said...

I'm team Halle for this one. I would have punched them in the face, not just pushed them. There was a child there. These paps are out of control. It's too much. I'm just so glad I'm not a celebrity.

Della said...

@MISCH- wonder who let the papps know she was on that flight? I think I would fly private if I had her $ to avoid those situations. Maybe she called the papps. I think he liks setting this type of situation up. We don't see it with other celebs very often.

Meanie Rhysie said...

Jeebus Christ on a crutch!!! Team Nahla here. Leave the kids alone, FFS!!!

Della said...

Oops - she likes

Unknown said...

I'm sorry but I would have done the same damn thing. I don't even know how they could have seen to walk through that shit. They didn't sign up to be harassed with their child in tow. Some shit should be off limits.

Jeneral said...

They can take pictures without getting in their faces and screaming at them. Have you seen the lenses on their cameras?

MISCH said...

@Della..something about this just doesn't feel right...

Unknown said...

Why would the paparazzi be waiting for her? She has NOTHING going on.

You know she called them an hour before and told them where she would be.

Unknown said...

Can't they prearrange something with the airline or airport to avoid this or maybe it's time to consider other travel options?

There are smaller airports in the NYC and LA areas with airlines that cater to business class passengers ie the cost to fly is either the same or maybe even less than regular commercial flights and then you avoid the paps at LAX along with avoid traffic as well.

I know of a few celebs who do that when they can and you can see why some charter private jets or indeed buy one. You avoid all this.

That said does she not travel with security and the reality is flipping out just encourages the paps. As upset as you are I think you have to try and hide it. Maybe you have the nanny or bodyguard take out the kid a few minutes later. There are ways if it really a concern.

Or maybe airports need to institute some new rules.

Oh puh-leeze! I bet Halle called the paps there herself, so she could have this "scene" and use it as an excuse to the court to move to France. I absolutely hate that psychotic witch. And spare me the "she loves her daughter" crap. If she loved her daughter she wouldnt be doing every possible thing she could to destroy her daughter's relationship with her father. Having had a father who refused to give me the time of day growing up, I am totally Team Gabriel--I admire any man that wants and truly tries to be a good father.

Della said...

She knew it was going to happen. Give me a brake.

TracySwingKid said...

I got to watch that melee from the comfort of my own home and I was still terrified. Imagine being confronted by that mob every where you go. Just the thought of having to face that would give me nightmares. The guy clearly reached out and grabbed at Olivier, I am sure to incite a response. Why does LAX allow people that are not customers on their property anyway? Seems like a safety hazard to their paying customers. LA should declare Open Season on paps. If they are within arm's reach (or if they block your car) then you are free to do with them as you will. Imagine the look on Halle's face if she was able to come down that escalator with a ball bat in her hand and start crushing some skulls.

mynerva said...

I agree with the posters above up to a point. There never seems to be any drama when Nahla is with her father. The papa are doing this because they know how Halle will react. And the vicious cycle goes on....

mynerva said...

Papa = paps

delete account said...

Uh, hello sheeple? Halle most likely called the paps there herself so she could use it as an excuse to move to France and keep her daughter away from her father. Quit playing into Scary Halle's manipulative hands.

Unknown said...

I'm on the "could have easily avoided this" train. I've seen plenty of celebrities at FBO's. I've also seen many celebs at the big airports in Phoenix and l.a., no one is ever bothering them. They know full well how to avoid paps (step 1: don't call them). It's terrible that she's doing that to her poor kid.

msgirl said...

Supposedly there are always paps at LAX waiting for celebrities to disembark. However, after Oliver dumped Nahlia in the SUV he WENT BACK to kick a pap. Also when everyone looks happy Halle doesn't seem to mind the paps.

I do think it's absolutely disgusting behavior for paps to get in the face of a child. I'd be enraged too. But violence is not the answer. Oliver has a short fuse and one day he's going to explode in the wrong place. This is also not behavior to model in front of a child.

Anna V. Xol said...

Yeah, you fucking fuckers. My fucking kid is right fucking here!! A bright light will scare them way more than me freaking out and cussing.

Halle, I will gladly endure your suffering. You come to Texas and struggle to get by. I will go to Hawaii with my kids and endure the agony of pictures.

Jeneral said...

I find it difficult to believe that anyone would ask for this. They follow Halle and Olivier because they know they can get a reaction from them, sell a story, possible lawsuit for battery, etc. This woman is a human being and a mother, even if she's made some poor choices in her life.

Sarah said...

I obviously pissed a few people off, but let me clarify. If Halle was actually just a privacy seeking mother, I'd be pro Halle. However, she has played to the paparazzi when it suits her, called them when it suited her , and used them as a weapon to destroy her daughter's familial bond with her father.
I still think Halle has an axe to grind and I think they're grinding it.

Unknown said...

If her Ex were smart he would use this video to show the court that the child is not safe with her or her boyfriend who seems to have some serious rage issues.

She could have EASILY avoided that mess. Like everyone else I'm saying she called them up and had them waiting for her Grand Entrance.

Joanna said...

A couple of those parasites had their cameras within two feet of Nahla's face. That's ridiculous and nobody should have to put up with that.

As for all the speculation about why so many paps were at the airport, it's always that way on the Monday night after a holiday weekend. Lots of celebs and their kids flew out to visit family, and many would have been returning last night.

Diane said...

I dont understand why these famous/rich people dont take private jets? When I travel with my (extremely wealth Uncle/family), we have a separate entrance/exit that we take to get to the private airplane. When we arrive at our destination we have a car waiting litterly on the tarmac to pick us up. No people to deal with except security. Why don't celebrities do this? That would avoid this whole mess ...

FrenchGirl said...

team Berry, Martinez and specially Nahla!
it's the same story than Affleck's :the paps are too agressive,too agressive and one of the paps grasped Martinez just before he put Nahla in the car

Jessica said...

I would never, ever, ever want to be famous.

FrenchGirl said...

and there is always some paps at LAX: remember Kate Moss and her daughter or Christian Bale&co when they came back in China after his Oscar

google paparazzi=LAX and you can find many videos with agressive paps

Unknown said...

I have to say the video did bother me as a mom - I would have definitely been annoyed, as well. But, I think Nahla seeing her mom and Oliver yelling and upset would scare her, as well. Either way...I can understand why Halle & Oliver snapped.

Marisa said...

I do not blame her, I'd be pissed too...what a nightmare. Poor Nahla was covering her face...and all those flashes...

Sherry said...

She was completely justified in her anger. BUT someone told them what flight there were on so....Hmm.

Nahla was really distressed. No faking that.

Onyx Loathes Hydrangeas said...

Anyone thinking that Halle didnt set this up herself to sell her "paps are soo crazy we must move to France!" story obviously hasn't been paying attention.

SpunkyPR said...

As a parent, yes, I would want to defend my children against aggressive paps, but that being the case, and Halle HAS to know that they would be there, why wouldn't she just have security or a bodyguard take Nahla to the car and she and Olivier just walk by the paps? They're there for her right?

Hazeldazel said...

And Gee, for a woman who is so hounded by the paps that she feels that she must move to another country, how conveeeeeenient that she has no security, that she flys into the regular part of LAX, no private hangar, no private jet, not even into Burbank airport which is pretty close. Nope home-girl's gotta go to paparazzi central.

Mari said...

This.
There are people who avoid attention, and those who don't.
I truly feel badly for the wee one.

Sarah said...

I have kids, and while I think this should be off limits, I think Halle and Olivier's reaction was as scary as the incident itself for the girl.
Paparazzi follow the Afflecks and I have never seen Jennifer react that way, she smiles and they generally give her clearance.
Olivier has displayed violence more than once in front of Nahla, once toward her own father.
I guess they give me a bad vibe.

jw11 said...

I would not let them get that close to my kid either.

I know she is supposed to be some kind of psycho b*tch and all, but in this case I am on her side.

Also, Jennifer Garner is a different person. Why are "our" celebrities supposed to be composed all the time? People have bad and good days, people have the right to be annoyed.

auntliddy said...

Paps slways at sirport to grt pics.

justducky said...

On my mobile so unable to view but it sounds absolutely horrendous for Nahla.

However, for the last few days there have been pictures on various sites of the three in Hawaii. There is no way her mom was unaware there would be paps waiting on them in LA. Ms. Berry has the wherewithal and experience on how to safeguard her childs privacy if she chose.

The discussion of why she should be forced to take extreme measures is a valid yet separate one. I'm more unclear as to why she would place her daughter in such situations at times when she can do otherwise.

justducky said...

Sorry for the double post. I'm curious if anyone else saw the comment Halle made recently during an interview. She mentioned that Martinez was discouraging her to postpone learning french until they actually move to France where it would be so much easier to learn as she would be immersed in all things french. Also she has so much on her plate here.

Had to LOL. This sounds like a man who knows this will never happen and might prefer she not understand what he is saying.

justducky said...


I meant "encouraginging her to postpone learning French"

Anonymous said...

Well said @scratchy kitty

Onyx Loathes Hydrangeas said...

Hahaha @justducky, I liked "encouraginging" :-p. I watched the video on TMZ, you're not missing much tho, lots of flashes, Halle being her typical extra self, and Olivier flipping at the end after SHE touches him and he thinks its a pap.

Total set up, just yesterday there were stories about her reaching out to Jen Garner to help protect celeb children from paps. Halle is bat shit crazy, but kind of predictable. She wants to move to France any means necessary. And yes the Olivier not wanting her to learn French because he doesn't want to inconvenience her while she's just soo busy is hilarious.

portlandjewel said...

^this^ they are acting like these people aren't human just because their jobs are to make movies. Who cares? They are coming home. From a trip. Really there isn't much to see there.

Aoife said...

Halle wanted this scrum to happen. The only one I'm for is Nahla. Olivier and Halle can have all the drama they want. What did she say once they were in the car?
"See if we move to France this won't happen"?

Anonymous said...

I can't stand her! She seems like a total nut job. Odd that every relationship she has had starts with her saying "...the best man on the planet, soul mate..blah blah blah..." and as soon as he/she is done she screams abuse. I think she uses her daughter as a 'fuck you' to the baby daddy by crying physical abuse, yada yada. Wish she and Martinez would fall into a sink hole. :)

Ramone Love said...

What a bitch. Don't like it, poor little Halle? Quit showbiz, bitch.

mooshki said...

Another setup situation to make her look like a victim. Nice try, Halle, but we aren't buying it. She's the one who put Nahla through this. Not only are there plenty of ways she could've avoided it, but the paps were staying a few feet away from her until she freaked out.

Barton Fink said...

Hey, the bf and I went to see The Call, and ... it was revenge/grudge porn at its filthiest. The first 30 minutes were well-done, but then it turned into a horrid film that followed a blonde girl in a car trunk and a ridiculous killer who like smelling hair. It ended so stupidly. Aargh. She looked good, though, except for the hair.

B626 said...

Wasn't the Call' done by Chris Evans and Kim Basinger about a decade ago?'
And the paps can suck it on this one.
Gabrial wasn't even anywhere around for a good dustup.

CityGirl said...

I have a very strong dislike for this woman - but even I have to give her a pass on this one. Any kid would be freaked the f*** out at the mini mob of paps. At least she shoved whathisname into the car to prevent him from fighting even though he was proved. See hate them paps - now I'm kind of defending both of them

CityGirl said...

uhhh provoked - not proved

Hegg said...

Halle has been missing her weekly doses of 24-7 drama and going to the courthouse. She's due so I guess her ppl called the paps. In 2013, the paps are not gonna be going wild for these two. It's a joke!
Anyway, poor poor child. Like she needs this all of the time.
Don't buy this orchestration. It's just like all of the others.

Hegg said...

She ought to want to learn French as her daughter speaks it. What an asshole.
