Just saw the Halle making a commercial for Revlon on ET:

REVLON'S BOND GIRL
October 16, 2002 | HALLE BERRY only recently became a "Bond girl", but she's always been a Revlon girl. So, it's only fitting that Revlon would introduce a new line of make-up called the "Limited Edition 007 Color Collection" with Berry in mind. The actress will be starring in upcoming commercials touting the line for the cosmetics giant in conjunction with promotions for the 20th James Bond flick, 'Die Another Day,' out November 22nd.

She talks in the commercial about her being beautiful but still taking out bad guys. She also stated in the spot that she always thought it should have been,
"Berry, Halle, Berry"

yeah i saw that too! Although it didn't show any new footage of the movie, it did show halle and i must say SHE LOOKED AWSOME!! She looked better in the commercial than in the movie. I wish they would have let her have her hair a bit longer in the movie, like it is now! She is going to be a great Bond girl!!

I don't think she looks that good at all, I'd turn her down if she coming knocking on my bedroom door.

I wonder if they are planning to use Rosamund Pike in the Revlon Ads, as well. I seem to remember reading somewhere awhile back, that they were going to create earthy, warm colors for Halle Berry, and cool, icy hues for Rosamund in the ads. I hope they still plan to do this. Halle Berry is gorgeous, but Ms. Pike isn't exactly homely, either.

Ah but Halle already has a contract with Revlon, so they're already paying her. And she's a very famous face & personality that can sell the cosmetics, Rosamund isn't. But there are shots of her at the Revlon site with photos of the line inspired by Miranda Frost. She might show up in print ads but I doubt she'll be in commercials. Oh Revlon has updated their site now with photos of older Bond girls, and even a Bond girl game of concentration.
