* WagTheDirector: [[invoked]] How ''Film/{{Catwoman}}'' came to be. After ''Monster's Ball'' netted her [[UsefulNotes/AcademyAward Best Actress]], she seemed to subsequently become more and more egotistical with such examples as trying to be placed in front of Creator/PierceBrosnan on the ''Film/DieAnotherDay'' poster, despite the latter playing '''JAMES FREAKING BOND.''' She was more successful in getting a higher salary for less work in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'' and stated that she would have to be paid '''more''' to even considering cameoing in ''Film/XMenTheLastStand''. Then ''Film/{{Catwoman}}'' came along and, presumably humbled by the waves of negative publicity, [[LaserGuidedKarma accepted a lesser paycheck for more work.]]

* ButNotTooBlack: Berry, a mixed-race actress (white mother and black father) has been counted as one of the most beautiful actresses working in Hollywood, especially working in an industry that favors Eurocentric standards of beauty. But Berry has light skin, straight hair, and European-ish features, leading some to speculate she benefits from Eurocentric standards. At least some backlash against her casting as Storm in the ''X-Men'' films is because of this.
