Gabriel Aubry’s pickup line: ‘you’re purtier than Kim Kardashian.’ Would you pass?


This is probably my favorite photo side by side I’ve ever made. It’s from 2010

Ok, so that’s not exactly what Gabriel Aubry allegedly said to a woman who spurned his advances, but it’s close. We know that Gabriel maybe fake-dated Kim for a while to make Halle Berry jealous when their split was still fresh. He may have liked Kim or at least admired her dermatologist’s handiwork, because he used her as an example of beauty in what sounds like the lamest pickup line ever, until you hear another line he reportedly used:

Gabriel Aubry is looking for love, but his cheesy pickup lines are blowing up in his face!

“Since Halle dumped him, Gabriel feels so alone,” an insider told The Enqurier.

“But he’s giving off such a whiff of desperation that he winds up alienating the women he meets.”

On a recent Friday night, the hunky 36 year-old French Canadian model hit on a hottie during happy hour at the popular Mexican restaurant and bar El Compadre in Los Angeles.

“In his most super suave move, Gabriel asked her, ‘Has anyone ever told you that you’re more beautiful than Kim Kardashian?’” said the source.

The flabbergasted girl laughed in his face, according to the source.

At another recent Hollywood party, Aubry… Approached three gorgeous aspiring actresses.

“Gabriel told them, ‘I’m here by myself tonight, ladies, but I certain don’t intend to go home that way. Are any of you fine women interested in going for a ride to check out the view from Mulholland Drive?’” said the source.

“His come on went over like a lead balloon. The girls smiled at each other and then wandered off…

“Deep down Gabriel is basically a nice guy,” said the source. “But nothing turns a women off more than a man who comes on as too needy.”

[From The National Enquirer, print edition, April 2, 2012]

So if an incredibly beautiful tall, gorgeous (I could go on) hunk of man like Gabriel Aubry moseyed up to you and said either of these things you wouldn’t go home with him or even give him your number, would you? More than these lame lines, it’s the neediness aspect that makes even the best specimens look unattractive. I once went out with a guy who looked like Keanu Reeves, but he just called me so much and seemed so into me that I couldn’t reciprocate. There’s a fine line between being open and accessible as a potential boyfriend and just seeming like you can’t cope and are clingy. I hope none of this is true at all, though. Aubry seems like a nice guy, but not like he’s this stupid or needy. Even if he is, there are plenty of women who would look up at that, smile and thank their lucky stars. L.A. is a different story. It’s like its own little world.

This might be true, though. “Beautiful” Kim Kardashian is said to be the one who dumped Gabriel back in late 2010, right before she started dating Kris Humphries. Memories.

Here’s Gabriel doing what he does best, being a hot dad. These photos are from yesterday. Gabriel took Nahla to The Grove, so he knew he’d be photographed.

    He’s obviously going through something. I used to have a HUGE crush on him but once you lay down with a Kardashian there is no way to take that stench off. Now I just feel sorry for him because of his problems with Halle. I think its going to be tough for him to date until he gets that whole thing settled.

      I thought his “date” with Kim Kardashian was an attempt to get his LA career going? You know, you “date” someone more popular than you, and you end up being talked about, i.e. marketed to the general public?

      But that didn’t work. Either he wasn’t into a Kardashian, or she didn’t like them white….errr, I meant she preferred “guys in sports”.

      I’ve seen him up close, very cute, but surprisingly unassuming. Don’t forget though, he was an international model, and he must know how to approach beautiful women, and also, he knows what real beautiful women look like.

      CB – you are one finicky b! Do you prefer your guys a bit on the bad and arrogant side?

      HELLO! They went to one basketball game together. He was subsequently read the riot act by Halle and never saw her again.

      It was a laps in judgement and had NOTHING to do with his career.

      Thank you.

    Nahla is SO cute! Yeah I get what you mean about desperation being so, so gross…but I don’t usually see Gabriel-Aubry-type hot dudes. I’d probably go home with him anyway! :)

    I wonder if this awful custody battle and being dragged through the mud by his balls has shattered his confidence. Sad- hope he meets a nice lady. Or doesn’t, and continues to be a good dad. Team Aubry!

      False accusation. Do you understand that Hollywood is as infested with paparazzi and a cheese factory is with rats? It’s impossible to go anywhere unseen if you are famous. There are informants among them all trying to make a buck. They work in teams.

    With all the crap this poor guy has gone through, it’s awful that people would put a story like this out at all, much less repeat it on a site like this.

    Why not write about how Berry seems to only wear her cast in the US for the Paps but pics of her in Paris show her doing everything without any sort of cast or cane?

    I don’t believe that he is “needy” for a woman, at all. I’ll just bet that this man has more offers than he can handle and is just very careful of who he approaches, after dealing with a nutcase like Halle.

    What he really needs is a good, ordinary, country girl like me!

    Sounds like more PR crap straight from KK” or HB’s camp either to garner a headline or make him look bad. From what I read, Gabe quietly dumped Berry cos she is crazy. I doubt he would dive into anything serious with KK, poor thing just accepted a ticket to a game at the holidays and he was papped.

    Oh sure he did. A person who looks like this needs to say very little. This is so an attempt by someone to make him look like a douche. And let me state for the record he could say just about anything and women would still not laugh in his face. This man is beyond handsome.I doubt he is as alone as he pretends to be. Halle goes even more crazy when he has a woman involved. He needs more crazy like a hole in the head. He is trying to regain some footing in parental role. And he must stay single. been there done that. I personally think he should flaunt a beautiful woman in her face make her even crazier make her do things a judge would take the child from her over. He needs to push her over the edge.

    I really do not believe this for these reasons.

    1. He is super sexy
    2. He would not have to say anything. Most women, who know anything about him, would sympathy bang him.
    3. Do you really think he went out with KK to bang her because she so desirable or just to get some media attention. (this reasoning keeps my repulsion down)
    4. Isn’t this the same rag mag (my granny used to read it) that uses psychics to predict celebrity futures and aliens.
    5. A lot of ladies like a Dad who appears to dote on their babies.

    Seriously….he is good looking in a way. Only problem he would have would be knowing Halle Berry his ex. And her and her matching male accessory look like psychos. I think the KK thing was a photo op as he is too pale for her.

    I’m not going to sign onto it either.

    But, let’s remember, he did pick Halle. Whatever the motivation behind hooking his wagon to her star, it hasn’t gone well. And, now, he has to pimp his little girl out to advertise his good fathering skills. Sad.

    On what planet are people who look like that desperate? I spent years watching smart, beautiful women approach my gorgeous male friends and beg to go home with them. My boys didn’t have to do a thing – and they weren’t famous male models who used to date movie stars. Some of them weren’t even too bright (and that is being kind). Didn’t matter.

    What I do believe is that Nahla is going to be SUCH a stunner when she grows up. Those eyebrows! Wow!

    Someone needs to take him in hand. He seems like such a nice guy and deserves better.

    Rather than trying to pick someone up at a skeezy bar, he should try the produce department at the supermarket on a Friday night. Go up to a female without a ring and say,

    “Excuse, can you tell me the difference between a shallot and an onion?”

    But *be prepared.* He has to actually have a recipe that calls for a shallot that he could conceivably make. Preferably as part of a menu for a meal that he could invite her to.

    Am I the only one who cringes at that woman taking his picture? The paps are one thing – everyone has to earn a living – but members of the public staring and treating him like a freak is just such bad manners. Especially considering he has a child with him. Have some dignity and at least try to pretend that you are not gawking lady.

    puleeez that article makes him out to be the 3rd long lost a wild & ca-razzy guy!
    what I kinda remember & took from that photo of him w/Kim @ the b ball game was he was newly single & most likely Kims mom was all over it to set them up. I can see the motives from the K klan @ that time but not him. that’s when Halle went bollistic & vowed every evil on him & now we are where we are today with Team A or H or N or H&N. I really hope he is a stand up guy in real life & he just isn’t minding his manners (attorney advice) until this Battle of the Berry is over. I hope he realizes ANY potential girlfriend is his child’s next stepmom. I hope he is putting his daughter first & forefront over hating the lonely life of a single.
    Halle didn’t she jumped into a new relationship pretty fast yet in her mind that’s ok because I really feel for the next serious girlfriend Gabe will have because Halle will make it pure hell on her.
    YIPES I just typed a mouth full but I think it’s because this sanerio playing out is one so many of us have been through or experience with friends or family-no matter who or what it’s the children who suffer. *cue bless the beast & the children by the late & lovely Karen Carpenter* *sigh teardrop* time to refill my coffee cup!
