Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron (pronounced /??r?li?z ???r?n/; born August 7, 1975)^[1] is a South African actress, film producer, and former fashion model. She became an American citizen in 2007.

Personal life

Theron resides in Los Angeles with her boyfriend Stuart Townsend, with whom she starred in the 2004 film Head in the Clouds, as well as in the 2002 film Trapped and 2005 Æon Flux. She has said that she will not marry until same-sex couples are able to have their marriages recognized.

Townsend recently stated he considers himself and Theron to be husband and wife. “We didn’t have a ceremony,” he said. “I don’t need a certificate or the state or the church to say otherwise. So no there’s no big official story on a wedding, but we are married… I consider her my wife and she considers me her husband”.The couple has since split up.

Theron became a naturalized citizen of the United States in May 2007.

Theron signed with William Morris Endeavour in 2009 and is represented by CEO Ari Emanuel.

Career

At the age of 16, Theron traveled to Milan, Italy, on a one-year modeling contract, after winning a local competition. She went to New York with Pauline’s Model Management. She decided to remain after her contract ended, attending the Joffrey Ballet School, where she trained as a ballet dancer. A knee injury closed this career path when Theron was 19.

Unable to dance, Theron flew to Los Angeles on a one-way ticket her mother bought her. During her early months there, she went to a bank to cash a check her mother had sent her to help with the rent.

When the teller refused to cash it, Theron immediately started a shouting match with her. Afterwards, a talent agent in line behind her handed her his business card and subsequently introduced her to some casting agents and also an acting school.

She later fired him as her manager after he kept sending her scripts for films similar to Showgirls and Species. After eight months in the city, she was cast in her first film part, a non-speaking role in the direct-to-video film Children of the Corn III (1995).

Larger roles in widely released Hollywood films followed, and her career skyrocketed in the late 1990s with box office successes like The Devil’s Advocate (1997), Mighty Joe Young (1998), and The Cider House Rules (1999). She glossed the cover of the January 1999 issue of Vanity Fair as the “White Hot Venus”.
