Many would have jumped at the chance to date Prince, one of the greatest artists of all time. During a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Cat Woman star Halle Berry said that the late “Purple Rain” singer, who passed away in 2016, once made an old-fashioned written proposal to her during his performance.
Her statement came in answer to the host’s query about the authenticity of the claims that Michael Jackson once sought Babyface’s assistance in asking Berry to go out with him.
Berry then responded, “I don’t know, but I know Prince asked me out on a date.”

She recounted, “I was at one of his concerts here on Sunset at the Key Club, and he had somebody come out with a piece of paper. And you know like kids do, you say, ‘Do you like me? Yes or no.’ I went, yes! I mean, I’m at his concert, right? Yes!”
The 58-year-old actress continued, “Came back out again: ‘Would you go out with me?'”
The Oscar winner, however, chose not to reply this time, saying instead, “No, I didn’t send the paper back; I kept the paper,” to which Kimmel jokingly replied, “Can I have it?”
The host, still in awe at the discovery, questioned, “So wait, he’s scribbling down notes between guitar solos? He’s like, ‘Bring this to Halle, let’s see.'”
Berry also remarked, “Somehow, I got it.”
Prince had many remarkable women he was known to have been romantically associated with. These women included Madonna, Kim Basinger, Sherilyn Fenn, Vanessa Marcil, Susanna Hoffs, and Tara Leigh Patrick, who subsequently changed her name to Carmen Electra, as reported by the Daily Mail.
