Charlize Theron Biography
Birth Place:
Benoni, South Africa
Date of Birth / Zodiac Sign:
08/07/1975, Leo
Profession:
Actor; model
This captivating former model has carved out an impressive career by playing some really ugly characters. After capturing attention as a sexy hit woman in her 1996 film debut,
2 Days in the Valley
, the South African beauty took on a succession of less flashy parts, such as an uptight girlfriend in
That Thing You Do
and a naive Southern wife in
The Devil's Advocate
. In the late '90s and early '00s, Theron appeared in a plethora of high-minded (if not always successful) Hollywood films (
The Cider House Rules
,
The Legend of Bagger Vance
,
15 Minutes
), but it was her turn as a lesbian prostitute/serial killer in the 2003 indie hit
Monster
that established her as a great actress. Virtually unrecognizable under many pounds of extra weight and makeup, Theron took home a Golden Globe and an Oscar for her transformative performance. Although off screen the leggy lady led a glamorous life, frequently appearing on best-dressed lists with her hunky actor-boyfriend Stuart Townsend draped on her arm, she continued her deglamorized cinema streak as a sexually harassed miner in
North Country
, which earned her Golden Globe and Oscar nods in 2006.
Charlize Theron Fast Facts:
Left her native South Africa in 1991, the same year that her mother shot and killed Theron's father in self-defense.
Won a modeling contest in Italy at the age of 16.
Studied with the Joffrey Ballet in New York City.
First attracted the attention of talent manager John Crosby with a tirade in a Los Angeles-area bank after a teller refused to cash her out-of-state check.

Showgirls

Starred with real-life boyfriend Stuart Townsend in 2004's
Head in the Clouds
