Shemar Moore is one of Hollywood’s sexiest men. The actor is best known for his roles on the TV crime dramas S.W.A.T. and Criminal Minds. But like many stars, his personal life has often been the subject of gossip. Early in his career, he dated several popular ladies, including actress Halle Berry and singer Toni Braxton.
In 1994, Moore landed the role of Malcolm Winters on the soap opera The Young and the Restless. The newcomer not only attracted the attention of viewers but also some high-profile female celebrities.
During the 90s, the star became a tabloid sensation thanks to his Hollywood romances. His first celebrity relationship was with Braxton, whom he dated from 1994 to 1995. Two years after their breakup, he began dating Berry, but their relationship ended in 1998.
Although Moore was already gaining fame for his award-winning soap opera role, his personal life is what earned him notoriety. In an interview with People, the Daytime Emmy winner discussed how the Hollywood romances affected his life.
”I had a pretty good entrance into Hollywood,” he revealed. Soon he earned the reputation of being “the guy who dated Halle Berry and Toni Braxton.”
When Moore became single again, he was the most sought-after bachelor.
Lovely ladies would look at me and say, ‘You want to hang out?’ and I’m like ‘Duh!’ Initially I became more popular as ‘that guy’ than I did as an actor. I had a good time being single. But I did it right – I was always honest.
