Halle Berry claps back at criticism over nude wine-drinking selfie

Halle Berry seemingly attempted to break the internet with her latest selfie.

Over the holiday weekend, the Oscar-winning actress posted an image of herself in which she is sipping wine on a balcony while nude.

“I do what I wanna do,” she captioned the Instagram image, which has since generated nearly 165,000 likes. “Happy Saturday.”

And while Berry received praise about the post from stars like Kelly Rowland, Meagan Good and Jenna Dewan, social media trolls also weighed in.

One commenter on Twitter wasn’t a fan of the 56-year-old beauty’s attention-grabby antics.

“Imagine being in your 50s, and still posting nudes for attention in menopause when you should be chilling with the grandkids. Aging with dignity is no longer a thing,” they wrote.

In on the fun, Berry offered a cheeky reply.

“Did you guys know the heart of a shrimp is located in its head?” the “John Wick: Chapter 3″ star tweeted.

However, her Twitter fan base was relentless in dragging the original commenter, as they stood in support of Berry among the nearly 14,000 retweets and 160,000 likes.

Reactions to Berry’s response included one from six-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald, who said Berry “won the internet today with this clap back,” while Daytime Emmy Award winner Sherri Shepherd commented with laughing emojis.
