Theron makes amends with Halle Berry

Charlize Theron is trying to make amends with Halle Berry following reports that she made insulting comments about her fellow Oscar winner.

The star scooped the Best Actress Academy Award two years after Berry's win in 2002, which led to a report claiming that she had criticised Halle's movie choices by saying, "Note to self. Do not become Halle Berry".

Theron has insisted, "That was a comment the writer made, and he said that I'd said it. That's not my style. I don't like that kind of cattiness. Women shouldn't go against women. I tried to make contact with her. I sent her flowers saying, `I really want you to know I never said that,' and she never called back.

"I think Halle Berry is an incredible actress. I have no problem with the choices she's made. And she seems to be fine. She doesn't seem to be hiding under the floorboards. At the end of the day, we have to take responsibility for the choices we make.

"If it doesn't work, at least I took the power in that situation. I'm sure Halle has done the same."
