Gary Gershoff/WireImageWelcome to Instagram, Halle Berry! Everybody, welcome to Halle Berry's Instagram account!
The Oscar winner, who did once say that she'd take nude photos all the time if she thought the media could handle it, has inaugurated her Instagram account with an au naturel pic, the iconic beauty eschewing a shirt while enjoying nature.
OK, yes, the pic is taken from behind and is the essence of tasteful and graceful...but really, even her back is just stunning.
"Hi everyone. Welcome! Today is a very exciting day for me..." wrote Berry, who also signed up for Twitter. "I'm looking forward to sharing our world through images that reflect my emotions and perceptions,."
"I am in awe of photography and its ability to capture and reflect this extraordinary world that we live in. I'm excited to share with you my love of nature, the arts, fashion and much more in the hopes that the images will inspire, promote conversation and bring you joy. ❤ Halle."
Back in 2010, while showing off a cheeky sculpture in her bedroom, Berry told Vogue that increasing acceptance of her body and sexuality had come with age.
"I've been slowly getting there," the actress explained. "If the world wouldn't persecute me, I'd take nude pictures every day of the week."
If by persecute she meant thank...
Either way, a lovely addition to Instagram, don't you think? [Follow.]
Speaking of tasteful nudity...
