Halle Berry Digs Waters Sports (Sort Of)
Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007
So by now it’s old news that Halle Berry —a/k/a the only good 6 seconds in Swordfish— is pregnant. But the latest gossip is that the actress is so “superstitious,” she saved 35 failed home pregnancy tests until she got the one delivering the good news:
We’d been trying for a while and I’m sort of superstitious so I saved all the negative tests in, like, a drawer… I don’t know why but I did.
I know I only got a C+ in “Old Wive’s Tales” at school, but I’ve never heard of the “saving bad news piss sticks superstition.” Nevertheless, it raises many exciting questions:
- Is this superstition related solely to getting pregnant or does saving urine-stained sticks bring good luck in general?
- Does it have to be exactly 35 sticks to work or will the desired result arrive as long your bedroom reeks like a public restroom?
- Can the sticks be kept in an ordinary drawer or must they be stowed in another, more magical, compartment such as something that is “like” a drawer?
and perhaps most importantly,
- Why am I still thinking about having sex with Halle Berry when I know she’s four months pregnant and preserves human waste?
Oh, right. Swordfish.
