Charlize Theron Hollywood Quotations

The celebrity status in Hollywood has gotten really out of control,

I had just arrived in Hollywood and didn't have a manager or agent. A very well known director contacted my modeling agency and said he had a small part for me in a big action film,

People always say to me, "What's wrong with Hollywood? They don't want to make female-driven movies." And that's not where the problem lies. It lies with us, in society. When we make these movies, nobody goes to see them.

Hell, I would be terrified if Hollywood showed up in my community and was going to pick a scab, ... The other thing was: 'How are the men going to be portrayed?' You have to understand what the men struggled for. At the end of the day, it was survival for both sexes. That doesn't justify the behavior, but in this community, this mine was the one thing they considered theirs and their fathers' and brothers'. The women were taking jobs in a community where there were no jobs to be taken.
