'Crime 101' is an underrated heist thriller featuring strong performances, particularly from Halle Berry and Mark Ruffalo, now available for streaming.
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground.
Halle Berry has always been down to experiment with her style. While the " naked dressing" trend has only started dominating red carpets and A-lister events recently, the Catwoman actress has been sporting its essentials - sheer designs, see-through panels, and bra tops - for much longer. Suffice to say, Berry has come a long way from wearing her prom dress at the 1986 Miss World pageant.
The 74th Miss USA pageant will take place in Reno, Nevada, on October 24. Ahead of the pageant, we took a look back at celebrities who competed on the Miss USA stage. Halle Berry, Olivia Culpo, and Hannah Brown were all Miss USA hopefuls.
