*DJ D-Nice has finally responded to the rumor that he’s dating Halle Berry after fans caught them flirting on Instagram Live during his virtual ‘club quarantine.’
As it turns out… they’re only friends, D-Nice, 49, confirmed in a new interview with PEOPLE.
“No Zoom dates,” he told the publication on April 3, when asked about flirting with Halle. “I’m not that fortunate yet. Hopefully one day,” he admitted. “You know what, we were just having fun. Halle is my friend, and we were just having fun with it, like, it could be light flirting, but nothing serious. We really are just having fun with it.”
D-Nice admits that even he was surprised to see the hashtag #BerryNice trending on social media.

“First of all, the fact that ‘#BerryNice’ was trending at No. 4 on Twitter is just like, what world world do we living in right now. ‘Berry-Nice’ — I love it!” he said
DJ D-Nice hosted a massive “#ClubQuarantine” event on Instagram last month that was streamed by over 100,000 people — including several celebrities.
Erykah Badu, Oprah Winfrey, Will Smith, Michelle Obama, Missy Elliott, Ava DuVernay and Kelly Rowland, were among the A-listers who tuned in for his online DJing set, USA Today reported.
“It was one of my favorite sets,” D-Nice told People of his “club quarantine” virtual party. “Because normally when I’m DJ-ing, I’m paying attention to body language and I’m watching you dance. So, if you’re not feeling it, you could potentially dictate the direction I’m going in. Being that there was no one here and I can’t see a soul, I just played from my heart,” he explained. “And, the fact that I played from my heart and it hit people, is like this is what I should’ve been doing for the longest. I should’ve been playing that way and giving people 100 percent of who I am.”
D-Nice plans to continue hosting club quarantine while in self-isolation.
