Halle Berry is not happy with Drake using her picture for the “Slime You Out” cover.
This week, the Toronto rap star kicked off the campaign for his next album “For All The Dogs” album with a brand new song with SZA. Drake now receives some criticism for using Halle Berry picture for the single “Slime You Out” artwork.
While the artwork on the streaming services is the album cover, Drake originally posted a picture of Halle getting slimed at the 2023 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards. “What are your thoughts of drake using that picture of you for his single?” asked a fan.

“didn’t get my permission. That’s not cool I thought better of him!” responds Berry. “Hence my post today when people you admire disappoint you, you have to be the bigger person and move on!”

Berry added more details of the whole thing and revealed the Drake used the picture even after she declined. “Cuz he asked me and I said NO that’s why,” Berry wrote. “Why ask if you intend to do what you want to do! That was the f–k you to me. Not cool. You get it?” “Exactly!! Its about principles and integrity. So happy many of you get that.”
“He did have his people call my people and i said NO. i didn’t like the image of slime all over my face in association with his song,” she added. “And he chose to do it anyway! You see…that is the disrespect. Not cool!”
