Halle Berry just got told she looks "more like 19" – and she's 54 today. The Oscar-winning actress whose age-defying body has yet to fade proved just why she's out-doing starlets half her age on Friday, taking to Instagram with a bikini bottoms skateboarding shot as she rung in her 54th birthday.
Halle, who admitted throwing the "kitchen sink" at her abs this year for upcoming MMA movie "Bruised," clocked herself over 200,000 likes in just two hours for her carefree snap. Check it out below.

Scroll for the snap. Halle, who is Type 1 diabetic and has been keto for 15 years, more than showed off her jaw-dropping figure, with the photo also checking boxes for Instagram's adored off-beat trend. The "John Wick" actress had been photographed cruising through palm-lined and sun-drenched streets as she flaunted some serious muscle, with a knowing smile also manifesting as Halle was snapped from behind.
Halle, wearing nothing but floral bikini bottoms and a simple white t-shirt, then threw out a caption reminding the world she was born – yes – in 1966.

A caption from the Re-Spin founder read: "54....life just gets better and better! ?✨."
The likes came in fast – ditto the celebrity comments. Fellow actress and "The Morning Show" star Reese Witherspoon was quick to comment, writing: "Get out of here ! This pic made my day !! ? ?HBD."
Halle, followed by 6.3 million on her Instagram, also had her followers refusing to believe that she's one year off 55.
"More like 19" came from Rico Nasty.

Halle, who has been honoring Instagram's #FitnessFriday for a solid two years and herself completed three years worth of martial arts training in just six months for "John Wick: Parabellum," has been opening up on the training for her upcoming movie. "Bruised" brings back the MMA theme, with Halle telling Women's Health:
"I had to look (and perform) like a professional MMA fighter, so, in addition to practicing MMA for four hours every day, I was also doing about 45 minutes of general strength training and 15 minutes of work just on my abs."
"We threw the kitchen sink at my core and, let me tell you, it took serious dedication," she added.

Halle's Instagram mostly documents things from the fitness front, but food hasn't been ignored this year. The star made headlines for showing off her "next level delicious" Cheesy Bacon Ranch Chicken earlier this year, with her Women's Health reveal confirming she eats clean – no processed rubbish.
In February, Halle launched her Re-Spin fitness line. The range, opting out of clothing and retailing at outlets including TJ Maxx and Marshalls, offers workout accessories including waist slimmer and yoga bundles. Scroll for the unusual wheel gear Halle has been arching her back over.
