I don’t know about you, but I keep saying Halle Berry when referring to Halle Bailey. So was the 23-year-old named after the Oscar-winning actress?
“Well, my family has always loved Halle Berry. She is amazing,” The Little Mermaid told Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos on Live with Kelly and Mark. “Originally, when I was a baby, they wanted to name me Hailey. But my last name is Bailey. So that wouldn’t have worked…So then they ultimately decided on Halle. And it is very similar to Halle Berry. But there is no one else I would rather have a similar name to her. She’s so cool.”
Does Bailey think Berry is cool in person too? The two met at the Oscars, and Bailey thinks her namesake is “like an angel!”
If I were the Oscar 2024 Oscar producer, I would have the two of them present together at the awards show. Could you imagine?
UPDATE: The Halles had a conversation about this reveal. To see what they said, then click here!
Before Kathleen Turner was scheming in The War of the Roses, she was already doing it on The Doctors. How gorgeous was the 24-year-old in that 1979 episode?
Ryan Seacrest is out of Live with Kelly and Ryan. And Mark Consuelos is joining his wife, Kelly Ripa, on Live with Kelly and Mark starting tomorrow.
So how are the married couple preparing for their big debut? They are sleeping. In their defense, they have to be up early for their live talk show at 9a.
It will be interesting to see if their nearly 27-year marriage will survive working together. But then again, this is not the first time they worked side-by-side. They met when they starred on All My Children.
Before Lauren Ambrose was dancing in Psycho Beach Party, she was singing Dancing in the Streets on Star Search. How amazingly talented was the 11-year-old back in 1990?
Yesterday, the actress was on Live with Kelly and Ryan, and she talked about her television debut.
During the Friends reunion, we found out that Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer had crushes on each other when they filmed the sitcom. But they didn’t talk about how it felt when they finally kissed each other.
Yesterday, when the actress was on Live with Kelly and Ryan, the hosts asked her if Rachel and Ross’ kiss was also the actors’ first kiss. And it was. So Kelly Ripa needed to know if it was weird. Without hesitation, Aniston said, “No, it was quite enjoyable!”
And yet, they never hooked up. Could you imagine if they did? It would’ve broken the internet like Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson’s sex tape.
