cruel to be kind 'cause it's easy to be hard
It would be easy to be hard on Halle Berry for driving another man out of her life. It would be easy because it's her fault. If she can't be blamed she's probably still responsible. Yet she and Gabs were trying to make it in a town and an industry that isn't organized around relationships and families so much as it is around 24 hour ego tripping. Even the most level headed can get ground down a bit. Like Milla Jovovich. Milla burst onto the scene at 18 with the release of her 1st album. Music was her first love and it showed - critics compared her to Tory Amis.

Something else showed too, and that was that Milla was one of the few truly beautiful women in the entertainment business. So the sex sells crowd thought that there should be a way of making money off of that, Perhpas by getting Jovo into modeling and movies. Though Jovo has said that she never took modeling seriously, except as a way of paying the bill, she got herself talked into it.
ride her cowboy!
Eventually she got hooked up with 2nd husband Luc Besson. He envisioned an entire career of prestige pix with Milla in the lead and him holding the riens. Giddyup Go! Only problem was that Luc took to cheatin' and Jovo wisely realized that the relationship wasn't going to get any better and split.
She's Milla inspite of herself
The Messenger 5th Element parts dried up as Jovo found herself busted down in rank to the B list. Still she was a serious actress who gave her roles everything that she had to give. Though her performance in Dummy was a little bit laboured at times, it's still the best thing in the indie flick. It's also the most memorable part.
Still Milla after all these years - She ain't perfect, but she'll do!
Other roles were to come as she won the respect of her collegues. Finally one fateful day she met curretn husband Paul Anderson after attenting a casting call for his Resident Evil project. The rest as they say is history. The couple are currently on their 5th instalment in the franchise. Milla also is managing the balancing act between mother wife and professional admirably, and inspite of where she lives and works!
stay hungry - just don't ever get fat!
How ever things were bound to catch up with her sooner or later. She's no spring chicken anymore. She gained and lost a ton of weight during her pregnancy. She also learned a little through that. People who used to be in awe of her - while she was beautiful, were giving her a hard time when she'd packed on the pounds. Milla herself has spoken in interviews about how sales ladies wound give her dirty looks when she'd go into the smart shops and then ask for sizes that they didn't carry.

She's also burning the candle at both ends. She's juggling a marriage, a child, and a career while in her mid 30's. That's bound to take it out of you. Maybe that's why some of the advance posters for the next RE show Milla looking a little different then you might remember. In fact she`s no longer the girl you've seen in the movies! Let's have a look see:
the pressure must be messing with Milla!
Evil Women: Milla Jovovich 2.0 & Resident Evil - TNG
Yikes! No lets not jump the gun and blame the work load. Hanging around with the comic con crowd was bound to rub off and nerd her up (Hear that Megan Fox!). So maybe it's time to bring some one else into the franchise. Now where would Anderson & co. find a drop dead grogeous chick with brains, enthusiasm, and some action experience? Well Julia Voth has starred in Bitchslap. She was the scan/model the programmers based the Jill Valentine character on in the Resident Evil video games. Plus she has an uncanny resemblance to a young Milla. Taking her on in a supporting role - side kick capacity might give Voth the apprentice work she's looking for & cut Milla some needed slack. She looks like she needs it. Get well soon Milla!

Now here's more of Ms. Voth - go on and grab a closer look. You know you want to!
BTW don't let those Follywood types have you thinking that there are no such things as zombies, 'cause that's what they want you to think. It keeps you off guard. In fact Follywood is full of them, and even worse creatures of the imgaination!
