After receiving harsh criticism for a scantily clad photo, Halle Berry retaliated with a cutting remark

The 56-year-old X-Men actress stood nude on her balcony while drinking wine.

Fans of the X-Men actress were generally supportive after she tweeted a naked photo of herself on a balcony, but one critic said Berry shouldn’t be “posting nudes for attention.”

While many of her followers applauded her for uploading the racy photo, one Twitter user said the actress should be “chilling” with her grandchildren instead of “posting nudes for attentio’n” adding that “aging with dignity is no longer a thing.”

In response, Halle made a humorous tweet in which she compared the troll to a shrimp, writing,  “Did you guys know the heart of a shrimp is located in its head?”

The tweet had Berry’s supporters in fits of laughter, and they quickly flocked to the comments to show their approval.

“You won the internet today with this clap back,“ singer/actor Audra McDonald said.

One more voice added, “Ms. Berry I see you’re on 10 today…and I APPROVE.”

Radio host Kaylah Oniwo of Nigeria stated,  “I stan a solid clap back ! Whew.”

Someone sent a sardonic message that read, “Imagine being in your fifties, still posting nudes for attention in menopause when you should be chilling with the grandkids. Aging with dignity is no longer a thing.”

The singer posted the following caption with her balcony photo: “I do what I wanna do.”

Berry hid her genitalia by positioning herself next to the bars.

Many of the actress’s admirers went crazy after reading her message and showered her with praise.

Someone said, “That seems like the cover of a romantic novel in which the main character falls madly in love with herself.”

Kelly Rowland of Destiny’s Child exclaimed, “YES!!!! “.

“How many people ZOOmed in on that pic hoping!! LOL I know I did,” exclaimed one. I certainly did.

Four others chimed in, “I know that’s right Halle Berry, you worked hard to be able to do whatever you want to do! Be loud and proud.”

After posting a rare photo of her daughter Nahla to celebrate her 15th birthday, Halle went and did this. She has a daughter with Canadian model Gabriel Aubry, and they posted a series of photos together.

Among the pictures was one of a young Nahla, framed with the words “Love You More,” and another of Halle and Nahla laughing and hugging.

She wrote in the caption, “One of the greatest gifts the universe has given me is my daughter, Nahla.”

“She is the sun that never fades and the moon that never wanes! Please join me in wishing her a happy 15th Birthday today! I love you sweet angel.”
