Halle Berry: Hollywood Still Has A Racism Problem

Halle Berry: Hollywood Still Has A Racism Problem ...more Halle Berry »

Halle Berry has claimed Hollywood still has a problem with her colour, despite her glittering career.

The star became the first Afro-American woman to win an Oscar in 2002, when Tinseltown decided to have its ‘black year’ with the Whoopi Goldgerg presented awards also giving out Best Actor to Denzel Washington.

However, Berry says race continues to be an enduring problem in the industry, claiming she has to work extra-hard to secure a leading role.

She says, “It doesn't matter that I have an Oscar, an Emmy, a Golden Globe and a Silver Bear.

"I shouldn't have had to try so hard to be considered. I should have to stop convincing studios I am right for it - it should be on my acting merit."
