The most inappropriate photo of Charlize Theron
Long before flirting with glory thanks to her Hollywood career, Charlize Theron, born August 7, 1975 in Benoni, South Africa, had to face very dark times. In 1991, an intern at the National School of Arts in Johannesburg, Charlize came to spend a weekend with her family. It was then that her mother, Gerda, killed her alcoholic and violent father, Charles, before her eyes. In self-defense, Charlize's mother is not prosecuted.
After this traumatic event, Charlize devotes herself to her artistic career, supported by her mother who registers her for a modeling contest. A big winner, the teenager travels the world for several months, before embarking on a career as a dancer in New York. Following a serious knee injury, she gave up this job and started acting.
In 1994, she made a decisive encounter for the rest of her career; Hollywood talent scout John Crosby. She enrolled in acting classes and made her debut on the big screen in Two days in the Valley in 1996. She was revealed to the general public in 1997 with The Devil's Associate alongside Keanu Reeves, her first commercial success. After a few films with mixed success (The spell of the jade scorpion, Bad trap, Sweet November), she returned to the top of the bill in 2003 with Italian robbery. In 2003, she won the Oscar for best actress for her performance in the film Monster, in which she was ugly. In 2007, she toured Bataille in Seattle under the direction of her companion, Stuart Townsend. The actress who alternates registers took part in two super Hollywood productions in 2012, Snow White and the Hunter and Prometheus.
On the private side, she lived a romance between 1997 and 2001 with singer Stephan Jenkins, then shared the life of actor Stuart Townsend (2002 to 2010). In March 2012, Charlize surprised everyone when she solo adopted three-month-old baby Jackson from South Africa. In January 2014, she formalized her new love and appeared on the arm of Sean Penn at a charity gala organized by the actor for the benefit of Haiti. But in June 2015 the rumors of the American tabloids announce the breakup of the couple. Charlize Theron adopts in August 2015, a little girl named August, born in the United States.
