Halle Berry is channeling her inner Catwoman to deal with criticism. The actress is still active in the industry, fit and talented as ever. The entertainer continues to be an inspiration for women of all ages. But being a woman in the entertainment industry comes with the added load of constant challenges. Issues like ageism and criticisms from people remain rampant problems. But Berry proved to be a real-life star as she dealt with one such troll recently.

On 9th April, the Bruised actress posted a photo of herself with the caption, “I do what I wanna do”. She is seen standing on the balcony posing n*de with nothing but a glass that she sips from. The photo garnered attention in a mostly positive way as she looked radiant at 56. But sometimes you cannot always impress everyone.

Just sometime after that post, a news creator/critic reposted Berry’s photo and criticized her. He suggested that she is looking for attention by posting a photo in her menopause when she should be with her grandchildren. “Aging with dignity is no longer a thing,” he wrote, ending his criticism. But Berry also clapped back at the criticism by reposting that tweet and writing, “did you guys know the heart of a shrimp is located in its head?”
Both celebrities and fans came in immediate support as they backed and supported her. Here is what the comments have to say about her response.
Twitterati backs Halle Berry as she claps back at a critic
Halle Berry has hit back at a troll in the most creative way. Fans are not only supporting her but also calling out ageism.
Imagine being in your 50s, still posting nudes for attention in menopause when you should be chilling with the grandkids. Aging with dignity is no longer a thing pic.twitter.com/d6Oksvc76N

Twitterati straight up called out the critic for criticizing someone as successful and confident as the Catwoman actress.
Imagine being an average man online and thinking Halle Berry of all people isn't the epitome of aging with dignity. Good luck with your mentions.

Imagine being so obtuse that you actually believe THEE Halle Berry has to do anything other than exist to get our attention. This photo, with which we have all been blessed, is the visual epitome of dignity, chilling, and menopausal goals. Stay mad, Red Nightmare.

Another one set the record straight by explaining how a woman being in her 50s does not make her a grandma. One even quoted Oscar-winning actress Michelle Yeoh, who said, “Ladies, don’t let anyone tell you you are past your prime”.
Just because someone is in their 50's with children doesn't mean that they're a grandma.
Everyone doesn't have children that in their teens they impregnate or get knocked up to make their Mother a grandma before in their 50's. And everyone doesn't have children at an early age.— IJS💙🆘💙🇺🇲⚖️♥️🖤💚 (@IJS03422635) April 10, 2023
“Ladies, don't let anyone tell you you are past your prime” – Michelle Yeoh.

Hi 👋 why do we want to prescribe to women how they should live their lives with THEIR bodies?
There is nothing wrong in Halle Berry’ s picture.
Nothing distasteful about the picture, in fact it speaks volumes about the confidence and grace and humour and style.— Bushy Botha Mtirara (@bushlaboy) April 9, 2023
The actress is a mother of two children:, 15-year-old daughter Nahla and 9-year-old Maceo. She is active in her work still and played the lead role in Moonfall back in 2022. We will see the entertainer in the upcoming sci-fi thriller The Mothership.
