Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The Hollywood actress might be best-known for her Bond Girl bikini or tearful acceptance speeches, but she is also the creator of three highly successful fragrances, bagging her this year's celebrity prize at the FiFi Awards.

Berry, who will receive the award at the ceremony on May 25 in New York, ventured into perfume two years ago with her woody oriental signature scent Halle by Halle Berry. The more floral Pure Orchid and the fresh and light Reveal followed in 2010.

"For years I have created my own personal scents by mixing and layering fragrances, trying to come up with something unique and different," Berry said in a statement. "It's a wonderful form of self-expression and I am thrilled to share these fragrances with consumers worldwide."

The US Fragrance Foundation chooses one celebrity each year that has especially contributed to attracting shoppers to the industry. Past honorees include Paris Hilton and Usher.
