===After 2000=== {{More citations needed section|reason=contributions to tribute material has NO citations|date=November 2014}} In 2000–2001, Berlin contributed to several artist [[tribute album]]s. The only track to make it on to a full Berlin release is a cover of [[Marilyn Manson]]'s "The Dope Show", which is included on Berlin's ''4play'' album as well as the Marilyn Manson tribute album ''Anonymous Messiah'' (2001, Vitamin Records). Other tributes include material by [[Madonna (entertainer)|Madonna]], [[Blondie (band)|Blondie]] and [[Depeche Mode]]. In 2004, Berlin was featured on the [[VH1]] show, ''[[Bands Reunited]]''<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0518395/|title="Bands Reunited" Berlin (TV Episode 2004) |website=IMDb.com|access-date=August 15, 2021}}</ref> where the roughly pre-''Love Life'' era lineup of the band (John Crawford, Terri Nunn, David Diamond, Ric Olsen, Matt Reid and Rod Learned) agreed to reunite as a band and as friends. They played one show at [[Roxy Theatre (West Hollywood, California)|The Roxy]] in California to a sold-out crowd. The band, featuring Nunn supported by other members who were not part of the classic line-up, toured with rock band [[INXS]] during the summer of 2011.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.popinstereo.com/?p=17378/ |title=INXS Announce North American Tour, Select Dates With Berlin |publisher=Popinstereo.com |access-date=May 26, 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120730155030/http://www.popinstereo.com/?p=17378%2F |archive-date=July 30, 2012 }}</ref> [[Gerald Casale]] of [[Devo]] created a video for Berlin which was scheduled to debut at a late November 2011 performance.<ref name=Patch/> Nunn herself was scheduled both to debut a radio show on [[KCSN|KCSN-FM]], and to record a new album, in 2012.<ref name=Patch>{{cite web |url=http://agourahills.patch.com/articles/berlin-s-terri-nunn-an-agoura-girl-at-heart |title=Berlin's Terri Nunn: An Agoura Girl at Heart |first=Susan |last=Pascal |work=Agourah Hills [[Patch.com|Patch]] |publisher=Patch Media |date=March 22, 2012 |access-date=August 9, 2013}}</ref> In July 2013, it was announced that a new album called ''Animal'' would be released on September 17, from which a single "It's The Way" would also be issued.<ref>{{cite press release|url=http://berlinpage.com/news/new-album-animal-set-for-release-september-17th|publisher=Berlinpage.com|title=New Album 'Animal' Set For Release on September 17|access-date=August 9, 2013}}</ref> In an August 9, 2016, interview with ''The Washington Times'',<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/aug/9/berlin-reuniting-terri-nunn-and-rest-original-line/|title=Berlin reuniting with Terri Nunn and rest of original lineup for possible tour |last=Valcourt |first=Keith |date=August 9, 2016 |website=washingtontimes.com |access-date=November 8, 2017}}</ref> Nunn announced the original members (Crawford, Nunn and Diamond) had been writing new material, and planning a tour and new album for 2017. On the 80s Cruise 2018, Ric Olsen, David Diamond and John Crawford performed with the Nunn-fronted version of Berlin. Rather than replacing any of the existing members, Diamond and Crawford are merging with Nunn's current Berlin incarnation to form a six-person line-up. They performed two new songs from their forthcoming album. They jokingly announced the album's title would be ''Woke'', a suggestion from VJ Mark Goodman during a Q & A session on the cruise, and that the album would be released in July 2018. Although an official name has not been determined, the new album was scheduled for release later that year. In May 2019, Terri Nunn announced that she and co-founders John Crawford and David Diamond would be reuniting for a new album, ''Transcendance'', to be released on August 2, 2019.<ref>{{cite web |last=Graff |first=Gary |title=Berlin's Terri Nunn Talks Reuniting With Co-Founders for New Album & Sex In Your Fifties |url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/rock/8510681/berlin-terri-nunn-reunion-new-album |date=May 9, 2019|website=Billboard.com}}</ref> Berlin was among hundreds of artists whose material was reportedly destroyed in the [[2008 Universal fire]].<ref name="Rosen2">{{cite web |last=Rosen |first=Jody |title=Here Are Hundreds More Artists Whose Tapes Were Destroyed in the UMG Fire |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/25/magazine/universal-music-fire-bands-list-umg.html |website=The New York Times |access-date=28 June 2019 |date=June 25, 2019}}</ref> The accuracy of this report was disputed by Vinny Vero, a music producer who works for the reissue label Cherry Red. Vero observed that Berlin's album masters were “safe and sound” while working on reissues of another Geffen recording artist. Later the same year, Universal located two session reels containing 11 unique or early versions of songs recorded in 1983 between ''Pleasure Victim'' and ''Love Life'', as well as an unreleased outtake from ''Love Life''.<ref>{{cite web |last=Davies |first=Scott |title=For those who were guessing Berlin, you were right |url= https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/new-classic-alt-reissue-label-rubellan-remasters-now-open-for-business.748331/page-22#post-22810187 |date=Dec 20, 2019|website=SteveHoffman.com}}</ref> On August 2, 2019, Berlin featuring Terri Nunn released their eighth album, ''Transcendance''.<ref name="Apple-Transcendance">{{cite web |title=Transcendance by Berlin on Apple Music |date=August 2, 2019 |url=https://music.apple.com/us/album/transcendance/1469479234 |publisher=Apple, Inc. |access-date=August 8, 2019}}</ref> On November 27, 2020, Berlin released their ninth album, ''Strings Attached'', which includes re-recordings of previous songs backed by a full orchestra.<ref name="Forbes-Strings-Attached">{{cite web |title=Berlin's Latest Album 'Strings Attached' Marks An Unlikely Alliance Of Synths And Orchestra|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidchiu/2020/12/09/berlins-latest-album-marks-an-unlikely-alliance-of-synths-and-orchestra/?sh=5ae03a666ad5 |work=Forbes Media |access-date=December 13, 2020}}</ref> On December 31, 2020, Terri Nunn performed as a solo act at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago New Year's Eve Party along with [[Vanilla Ice]].<ref>{{Cite news|last=Melendez|first=Pilar|date=2021-01-01|title=Missing From Trump Mar-a-Lago Gala: the President & Masks|language=en|work=[[The Daily Beast]]|url=https://www.thedailybeast.com/donald-trumps-mar-a-lago-holds-gala-amid-coronavirus-pandemic|access-date=2021-01-01}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Inside Mar-a-Lago's Maskless, Super-Spreader New Year's Eve Bash With The Trumps|url=https://guestofaguest.com/miami/events/inside-mar-a-lagos-maskless-super-spreader-new-years-eve-bash|access-date=2021-01-04|website=[[Guest of a Guest]]|language=en}}</ref> Soon thereafter, Nunn expressed deep regret for participating in the event, stating not only that she did not intend it to be an endorsement or support of any political party, but also that she was unaware of the laxness of COVID laws in the State of Florida and was astonished to find that masks and social distancing were not required at the event, as she had been led to believe otherwise.<ref>[https://variety.com/2021/music/news/berlin-terri-nunn-apologizes-mar-a-lago-new-years-eve-1234878605/ Willman, Chris (2021).
