Before Halle won the Oscar many people doubted her capabilities as an actress, even her Monster Ball producer Lee Daniels. He told TMZ she was "at her worst publicity-wise. She had just run over somebody- backed up, took off and left them there; done the Flintstones [movie] and was being called a Black Barbie doll." Well luckily things worked out in her favor.
