Halle Berry has admitted that she didn’t take a shower for 8 weeks while filming “Jungle Fever.”

The 47-year-old actress made her acting debut with Samuel L. Jackson in the 1991 film in which she portrayed a crack addict, and she’s admitted that she embraced her character by remaining unwashed during production.

Berry responded to a question regarding Jungle Fever by saying:

“I didn’t smoke crack. I drew the line there but it was 23 years ago so I was brand spanking new and at that time all I could really do was kind of try to be it, to be it so I didn’t shower for the whole entire time that we shot that movie, so that was probably about eight weeks. It was gnarly, it was gnarly. Certain body parts got washed, let’s just say that.”

Berry also claimed that she keeps her Oscar in her bedroom, hidden from view.

“I keep him in my bedroom so nobody ever sees him. He’s very protected in my room all tucked away and tidy … In my house we don’t have a lot of that kind of stuff out anywhere.

“You would walk in our home and not know that actors live there and so it’s some place that’s private. It’s just for me. It reminds me sometimes of the accomplishment so it’s really more for me personally.”

Berry’s next project, “Extant” will bring her to CBS as the lead.

According to Entertainment Weekly, she recently released a video in which she portrays an astronaut who is strangely pregnant, and her baby, Ethan, may be a robot.

In the video, a robot discusses natural selection to Ethan, focusing on the extinction of neanderthals. The robot goes on to say that because homo sapiens were stronger and wiser, they were better equipped to survive. She claims that he is a member of the homo sapiens species, but Ethan denies it. His mother interrupts their chat before he can respond.
