A-list beauty Halle Berry abruptly withdrew from a new legal drama that portrayed Kim Kardashian as a hotshot divorce attorney and the head of an all-female law office in Los Angeles, a new report claimed. The social media maven is said to be feeling humiliated and snubbed by Hollywood's elite as a result of her decision.
Kim was taken aback when the "John Wick" beauty suddenly walked out of the new Hulu television series “All's Fair,” which was created by Ryan Murphy. Halle was supposed to co-star in the series and executive produce it, according to unnamed sources.
“Halle has made the excuse that she had to leave over scheduling conflicts, but Kim’s not buying that. It’s really bruised her ego in the worst way,” an anonymous insider told Globe Magazine.
“She feels like it’s just another example of people thinking she’s s not good enough. She was so excited when Halle signed on, it was a huge coup. The idea of being in the same cast as an Oscar winner was a dream come true. Kim’s also executive producing, so from that standpoint Halle was a huge get,” the informant told the publication.
However, when it was revealed that Halle, who is 57 years old, was on board, there was a backlash. “There was questioning why Halle would lower herself to share the small screen with Kim, so it’s extra humiliating that she’s now dropped out,” the tipster stated.
“People around the situation are saying Kim could be right about Halle’s real intentions. Halle considers herself a serious actress. She likely had second thoughts about working with someone as notorious as Kim, whose real life is more dramatic than anything written in a script,” the mole furthered.
“Then again, Halle is known to be a diva. She wouldn’t want Kim stealing her thunder. Regardless, Kim feels very snubbed,” the spy went on.
At the beginning of this month, Kim, who is 43 years old and just appeared in "American Horror Story: Delicate," was also excited about the fact that "Fatal Attraction" actor Glenn Close will be a part of the series, as per E! Online.
However, it has been reported that Kim is now concerned that they would lose her as well. “It’s gone from being something so she was so excited about to a big source of anxiety,” the tattler said.
Business Times has reached out to Kim Kardashian for comments.
